Re: Presidents letter

I’d like the Prez to put some more meat on the bone with regards to what does he exactly mean when he says “not the easy way” What’s he actually envisioning with regards to how hard the list build needs to be, I know Lyon has said recently that we are going to the national draft again this year and...

Re: Next week

A coach with vision for the future doesn't recruit rejects like Cordy and Bonner and give them important roles in the team. Their talent level is average and their upside is minimal. I’m pretty sure Bonner is playing because Webster isn’t. Cordy played last year as forward because we had no others ...

Not wrong. A wet evening in Melbourne = CBF going . The crowd looked 25K-ish. Was seriously about 12-16k after half time. The joint is lifeless. Like our pox team. 👎🏼

Re: Match thread Saints v Dogs

At game and my view is Can’t win a clearance regardless of where Marshall hits it Cooper keeps getting moved form one position to another. Pick one rtb and stick with it Way too many handballs not enough kicks Sinclair is Samson. Haircut ruined his form Skill below afl standard Bourbon way to expen...

Re: Could we get a selection surprise this week?

As I’ve said before, thank goodness fans don’t pick the side. Thursday’s game is close to being a must win for us and we have fans calling for the selection of unproven and (from what I’ve seen of them) unexciting first year players. Garcia looked like he might be something in the pre-season practi...

Re: Match Thread Saints v Giants Round 5 2024

In the first month - apart from Marshall & Steele … I truly think the majority team is out of form. It’s very odd watching Wilkie and Sinclair out of touch and making poor decision. Skills are pox, often out of position. All over the shop.

Good grief. We’re flat footed, missing tackles and watching them whizz past us kicking to forwards playing in front. We’re back to bombing it forward as Plan A.

Re: Match Thread vs Richmond

Richmond's approach the this game was so much more serious than they Saints. They have been practicing all week in a space the same dimensions as this crap ground. Apparently Lyon scoffed at the idea. The Saints seem to have no idea how to handle the space. I thought the same thing when I heard Ros...

Simpkin is a clean inoffensive ball player isn't he? Looking to understand the action and find it hard to understand especially in a practice match. Watershed time for Jimmy, and not a good one. Wonder how the Club will go about defending him. The smart way would be to apologise, put your hand up a...

The best news to our football program in years. It’s zero surprise to anyone who knows Damien and/or what he’s done at Hawthorn and Collingwood that our recent draftees are coming into the team with considerably better skills than previously. He’s a weapon of a development resource 👏🏻👏🏻

History shows the hard line works. Only with a list that is in the premiership window and with a group of mature match hardened and conditioned bodies.
