Re: Saints NGA article: Sam Linder
The trouble with NGA kids is that we cannot match a bid until pick 40 so if these guys are guns they will go before then. Northern states have no such restrictions. We were lucky with Owens & Windy as they went after pick 20 which was the bar that year. McKenzie our NGA that the dorks grabbed l...

Re: Can we?
There are absolutely no short cuts for talent acquisition...it took Scott over 10 years to win his first flag and what was Geelongs secret...the sum of all parts supported by ti.e and stability.

A few hints thrown out for selection v North
Lyon in his interview today on Saints.com said Dow will be playing with Sandy this week. He stated after coming off a long injury, doesn’t want to set him up for failure. Also Clark will play for Sandy. Wood will be straight back in. Interesting comment re Jimmy Webster. He said Jimmy is not coming ...

Re: Match Thread Saints v Port Round 7 2024
Agreed Defensive, called Garcia a second or third year player and was basically rambling I honestly don’t think he GAF Oh come on re Garcia, it was a boo boo - it was a slip of the tongue - Lyon at that time was talking about the youth of the team and when he mentioned Garcia in that context he mea...

I noticed in the coaches box against the Bullies. Harves was sitting beside Lyon. Usually it’s Boris sitting next to Lyon, when at Marvel.

No. But I can’t see the point in comparing us with the Eagles or the Lions. We’re 2-4 and we were crap on Thursday with a huge injury list coming off a five day break. Coming off 3 games in 12 days, one interstate game in there...insane. Wasn’t it 2 interstate games one at Norwood SA the other in C...

And to rub it in. Chanel7 showed Jarryn Geary standing in the Footscray coaches box at the end of the game.

The same supporters who go don’t bag out the players think it’s wrong to get a Tarryn Thomas or a Jordan De Goey. If you want to FKN win a premiership you be ruthless.

Re: 150 Up
Congratulations to the man, he is coach at one of the most challenging elite sporting clubs in Australia. Hopefully he is in the job for the long term, like 10 years minimum and takes the long road as I suspect he'll need every bit of that but will be happy if he can bring it in sooner. You reckon ...

Re: Saints once again under appreciated by the media
Nah you ain’t being over sensitive NDSC - it’s par for the course, it’s the cross we Saint supporters have to wear, with the media rarely giving us credit where credit is due. Always been the way & likely to remain so

Tigers marked out the dimensions of Norwood Oval, on Punt Rd Oval during training, so they could get used to the ground size. RTB said that's OTT and obsessive.

Re: It's not glamorous': Footy's most underappreciated role
As the article in ALF.com says,
“So here’s to the humble half-forwards, for it’s time they got their adulation.”
Now let’s all genuflect to the memorable past deeds when playing for the Saints, of our much loved traded JB, then move on!!

Re: Phillipou
I can’t see Phillipou playing the wing. To me he looks rather slow when he runs, looks like he’s dragging his feet out of mud. Doubt if he’d have the endurance to do all the gut running the modern day winger requires. I’ve never noticed him get out of a trot, even when he’s attempting to chase a pla...
