After all the early excitement it appears I will be correct in a very early post suggesting that the Hawks 1st pick will be later than ours. This is not hind sight just knowledge built on many years of following the Saints. Appart from pride. It does not matter, they are both our pics. Having 7 &am...

FYI they are both best mates with me. And One if them is a strong Saints supporter when not playing Melbourne his love and soul. He always comes to Saints games with me. Loves them!! He lives in a share house. Hes a farm boy. Drives an old prado. Loves hunting camping, hiking. He does not ski! So cu...

anyone that would trade him is a complete idiot. Why would you trade something at its lowest point? The potential upside is far too great. Opportunity cost... reflect on that

I think Saints fans really overrate him. His decision making is perplexing at times. Agree and watching him and Dmac live Saturday they have to hit a target Newnes decision just looked a tad slow for mine like he always s cond guessed first option and struggled to not turn it over at time HAHAHAHA ...

Gee, your a funny guy! One minute we're not good enough and the next minute we can win 5 in a row, including 3 teams above or equal with us on the table. Consistency is a virtue: try to remember that! Anyway, on our day I reckon we can beat all 4: the hardest probably being Richmond, who play the s...

Goddard is a gun/will be a gun.
Paddy will grow into a gun. Im 100% convinced

Holmes would out leap Mumford. And is is strength and height

I bet they wish they had McCartin! At the end of 2014, we had a depleted forward line. Besides Rooey, there was nobody. We needed a key forward, not a midfielder. So we got a KEY FORWARD. Why on earth would we have got Petracca when we needed to get a key forward? Answer me that one!!! McCartin may...

ive got a strong feeling Hickeys dominance comes from reading the ball bounce and throwing it up did him no favour. He gets a second chance next week imo.

How come we are consistently beaten at clearances ?

Its called Carlisel, Goddard, and Paddy.

if i hear record breaking night one more time....

It was my first game live since the Carlton win. I simply can't believe how dominant he is now. Did you notice the Dogs second 3 goal surge came when he was having a rest and all their momentum stopped when he returned to the field ? This! First use of the ball is vital - that's why we need a more ...

I noticed when hickey had a rest on the bench we conceded 3 quick goals, his ruck work is superb however he also backs it up often with a tackle.. its like having a extra man on the ground. Too many tall rucks rely on their hight as their only asset.

Scarey to think if we had petracca, Marcus Bontempelli and Carlisle in this team now.... with roo still playing... 2016 would almost be a chance. 2018 when/if Nathan Freeman get to his best, Paddy is fit and has two preseasons under his belt, Jake Carlisle, Billings, we will be without Roo but a ver...

From memory Kelly Slater and Tiger Woods both used to do these visualisations..

probably frustrated playing vfl level? clearly better than anyone else out there...

The four points are a complete load of s*** when you aren't making the finals… the ladder is in reverse. Pick 4 is better that pick 7. We were putrid and deserved to lose to a complete bunch of hacks. The 4 points was the worst thing to come out of today. Not that simple. In the first few years of ...

Bluthy. You are the only person here that gets it. Good post.

Ray was pick 4 in 2003! Sam fisher at pick 55 in the 2003 draft is the only decent player above pick 1, what a crap year.

no one rates ray at all?

We have lost half our backline in zak, raf, gram and goddard in 12 months. ok whats the next move?

if you live in brighton/sandringham how is the drive to seaford a long way?? its a 30 min drive I dont get it.

isn't collingwood the most hated??

Thanks ok well a pick above 10 is not sufficient compensation surely
