[quote="BigMart"]Horrible planning No +1 With an undersized key defender An offensive set up at centre bounce vs Natinui Bashed the ball out of 50 against a notorious zone team Too many small fwds Gresham, Lonie, Sinclair 1 required Only Roberton or Gilbert needed as the +1 Goddard or Lee ...

We are shallow down back and there really is not that much there to bring in. Delaney is having an average few weeks in the magoos, as is Goddard truth be told. You have to ask the question though, would it have been any worse if one had of come up to do a job? This game was three steps backwards f...

Great post Bluthy....

Dunstan. Slow. Below average kick. At this stage he doesn't read the ball off the pack that well. However he is v determined and you couldn't question his endeavour. Weller seems to be growing out of his run-with role. Maybe Dunstan can grow into it. Totally agree Dunstan is.another of AR's.love ch...

Bad selections this week. Roberton was badly undone. Lonie has been struggling for quite a few weeks. Its obvious Richo loves him - went straight in after being drafted and rarely out. But he looks seriously cooked after a year and bit of tackling huge AFL guys as a 174cm player. Needs some time in...

Yeah from Richo saying he f....d up this weeks selections terribly. We needed another tall defender, another ruckmen a midfield who can win first possession and the run and spread. Richo needs to grow some balls and challenge his team to show some mongrel, pride and not just roll over in these games...

Who plays on Natanui or Lycett forward?

I find Lethal very fair in his assessments - if the Saints deserve praise he is happy to give it.

I enjoy his views on the game very insightful for such on old bugger.

The whole competition wont have a window if the AFL dont wind back their concessions!

They had a kid today from the Riverena who in his first game had 31 possessions with 17 contetsted - what hope do we have?

No loss then greatest waste of resources at AFL football, should be saved for GF's only.

Harves is Collingwoods midfield coach - you would to suggest he is not getting the best out of them!

It's pretty simple really. Follow team rules, be selfless, and play your role. The handling of Blake Acres is a perfect example- hre is now a NAB rising star and even he admits he has to work on certain aspects of his game to be a good AFL footballer. IMO You have explained the Richo ethos perfectl...

Acres said in media last week he doesnt want to ever leave Melbourne he loves living there...

Gaff for a first rounder would be a great get though he is exactly what we need....

No point making finals if we are not competitive against the top sides. 2016 needs to be another development year with getting as many midfield minutes as possible into the younger players eg Billings, Sinclair, Acres, Dunstan, Minchington, Gresham, Lonie, McKenzie, Weller, Ross & Freeman when r...

Watched the GWS v Cats game. I believe Geelong are really susceptible to teams with midfield and outside leg speed. They will play finals but dont see them as GF contenders...

According to those 'in the know' on bigfooty 6 months ago O'meara was signed sealed and delivered to us. Having said that so was Josh Kelly,Cameron,Steele Sidebottom was also as good as a saint. Those 'in the know' on bigfooty have yet to deliver on one big name trade rumour yet Think you are 'guil...

Can someone please post yesterdays stats?

According to those in the know on BF the club has ruled out JO as a trade option - but things can change in footy as we know!

Great win, but we are still to run out a last 1/4 over the top of teams. We should have really gone for throat and killed the Dees in the last. Acres has arrived and still has plenty of room for improvement. Membrey arrived also needed that confidence builder. Ross was great once again. Is so much m...

Surprised Lee was dropped. I thought we were looking to the future? Was he dropped because he had no tackles last week? If so that's ridiculous given the intercept marking and kicking strengths he provides.

Poor bugger cant take a trick. Saints medical have been very conservative with him for a reason obviously. Lets hope it just another little blip in the start of a lengthy career with the Saints!
