Sack the Coach

I'm fed up with hearing every year that "we'll be better this season" and then really failing to make an impact. Howl me down if you want to but the inconsistency and lack of pressure we have seen in the practice games is the result of one thing... poor coaching. Our list is every bit as g...

Re: Jake Carlisle

Good deal. I am happy with that. Essentially we get Carlisle for pick 14. We lock in Rice (45+63) and we get two live picks in the draft - 14 + 44 Sinclair will be one of those unless we delist a couple more and get an even later pick which is the way to go IMO. Most likely will use 68 to upgrade S...

Aaron Young

Herald Sun in reporting St Kilda is interested in Port Power's Aaron Young. "...Port could also yet lose utility Aaron Young to St Kilda, in what could form part of a three-way deal involving Toumpas and the Dees. Young, 22, is contracted at Port next season but is open to a move. St Kilda coac...

Re: Delistings 2015

Dunny, Simpkin Simpkin and Siposs both have contracts so i think they will be safe. I certainly wouldnt promote all 4 rookies. Apart from Templeton and maybe Weller the other 2 seem honest triers but we have to many of those as it is. I would promote Weller and keep Templeton as a rookie if they do...

Delistings 2015

We have now most likely sewn up pick no 1 in the next draft and the time will soon be here to consider delistings. Shenton, Templeton, Weller and Minchington all probably deserve to be promoted to the senior list, and if we want, say 4 or 5 picks in the national draft the we would need to delist aro...

Re: Matt Finnis for CEO?

Matt Finnis, well we are desperate so anyone who will accept the position will do it seems. Why is it that you people think Matt Finnis isn't a suitable candidate for the CEO role? He has experience in the football industry by virtue of his role of CEO of the AFLPA for the past 5 years, and prior t...

Re: North offer Pick 26 & Luke for Dal

Well a first rounder is. Im not sure of the rules but they must use a first round pick. People seem to think they can trade for another first round pic and then trade away pick8. That could be right. Nope. They have to use their assigned first round pick. Incorrect. They only need to use a first ro...

From the AFL Father/Son rules... A Club can nominate an eligible Father-Son draftee, with the player’s written consent, for the upcoming NAB AFL Draft.

Re: Chris Pelchen !!

I think perhaps Pelchen is posturing to trade Dal, and pick 17 for Delaney and picks 8 & 26. North have already offered 26 and Delaney for Dal... throwing in the 8 for 17 means North lose nothing as they can still use 17 for Luke McDonald and the Saints get a pretty fair deal for Dal. Win Win.....

More cr@p from the flogs at SEN who yesterday stated categorically that Nick Riewoldt would be traded!!!!

Tom Ledger requested that he be delisted so he could seek more opportunity elsewhere, and the powers at StKilda were kind enough to agree.

Re: So the new recruits do what to our 2013 lineup?

Siposs will get a regular gig replacing Goddard as a sweeper across halfback. He has the same sublime footskills as Goddard and will slot into that role perfectly.
