No Change

Maybe it's just me but I sense that JB is emerging. The natives have been getting restless over Jack Billings not performing at the standard expected given that he was such a high draft pick but I think he's starting to put it together. The kid is a class act and I've got no doubt he'll be the champ...

I know it's still early days but Roberton is in career best form, he has been an absolute revelation down back and would be a certainty for All Australian if he keeps playing the way he is. I think he's thriving on the responsibility of being in the leadership group and with the support now of Brown...

Sinclair should be playing seniors, no doubt about it.

Ladies and gentlemen! If we choose not to trade, we will have the opportunity to grab two of these lads. Early days, I know, and there are always bolters as the year goes on, but these twenty are considered the cream ATM. Who would you choose? Let's have a nearest the pin/time capsule comp. The Jad...

As for Billings. No one (that I read anyway) on here called for Nicky Dal's cuz. I also heard (read?) that the Poodles have said that they'd have taken Billings ahead of Bontempelli. That said, Billings looks like one of those types who will improve as the team improves around him . He also seems t...

He hasn't even been reported for it, if he's not cited as part of match review, travesty of justice. Wouldn't surprise me if he gets off to be honest, there is so much inconsistency in how they assess this stuff, it's not funny.

I'm sure we'd all love him if he played for us and praise his hardness. That hit on Cloke was very hamillesque... it was a bit late, but didn't get him high. I know that the suspensions handed down take into account whether the hit was high or not. This incident illustrates that you can cause just ...

That's the one.....it's actually worse than I remembered; he's going to kill someone.

Seeing what Ziebell did to poor old Clokey today reminded me of a very similar incident involving Rooey a few years ago when he jumped off the ground and hurled himself at him knocking the absolute bejesus out of him. Well it looks like Cloke has broken ribs and this guy is still up to his old trick...

Sinclair must be confused? First emergency last week Got to play a half of BFL as a result Dominated that half in atrocious conditions Not even on the emergency list? My thoughts exactly. I have zero idea what match committee is doing to this kid. He makes good decisions, is clean by foot and hand ...

Can't wait to see Ben Long play, looks VERY exciting. Just needs to temper his aggression a bit, been suspended a number of times already in his short career in NT and again in the VFL Grand Final last year. Love those guys that have the fire in the belly but he's no good to us sitting in the stands.

Thanks Shinner for the fantastic service you have given this club, one of the most selfless and courageous players I've ever seen, you've been a ripper. For any aspiring young players, this guy is your ultimate role model; he may not have been the most talented player that's gone around but did EVER...

No Supergoal with the 50m? I need to know why that wasn't a Supergoal - I believe that should have been a 9 pointer and so the match was drawn. I believe the player is given the option to take the full 50m and kick a 6 pointer, or take the free kick at the 50m arc for a super goal. We elected to ta...

I went to school with one Eddie McGuire

Good article about Tom Lee being thankful for the opportunity he was given by the Saints and basically not being able to repay that faith shown in him mainly due to injuries. There were no sour grapes and he's still cheering for us. All the best for the future Tom.... http://www.afl.com.au/news/2016...

Sorry guys, I'm going to hit you with some meaningless trivia. Josh started at Haileybury in Year 10 and played his first game with the Year 11s - the B team playing alongside my son. This new guy looked pretty good but I remember he snagged 5 goals in the last quarter just kicking them from everywh...

Eli Templeton for Port Melbourne? The ex-Saint would be a fine addition to the Borough ranks. Had a v good 2016 at Sandringham.

Yep, definitely joined Port.

Yeah i agree josh battle is all class! A bigger membrey basically. God forbid mccartin keeps getting concussed we need another classy straight kicking forward which battle is. Him and witherden have great skills. SPP BOTLTON BATTLE or WITHERDEN for me Would be really excited if we managed to land J...

He's a bit of a d**khead, but he will probably out into his place by the senior players no matter where he goes I've been following him pretty closely this year through a connection with Haileybury. Terrific talent but a FIGJAM of the highest order and not that well liked. We won't get him at 23 bu...
