So,
Who did we move up to Pick 27 (originally) to grab?
I wonder if it was for someone, or just a better quality pick.

I’d be ok with Murphy.

That’s a bloody excellent trade for us.
Probably never going to draft Leake, and get a free Future Round 2 pick.
Brilliant.

Last time we did that (in 2019) we gave away the opportunity to recruit Tom Green who went at pick 10 to GWS...plus we gave away Blake Acres as steak knives I understand the point you are trying to make, but Tom Green was an academy player for GWS. He was never not going to GWS, with or without kee...

DeMattia will be gone well before our second pick Not necessarily, Foxsports ranks DeMattia at 29 in the pecking order, St Kilda's 2nd pick currently 21 will drift out but not as far as 29.... https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/draft/fox-footy-afl-draft-2023-rankings-top-50-afl-draft-news-2023-prospe...

Sunday afternoon. 2:50pm. Norwood Oval.

Looks like we have the tigers for Gather Round 2024

The point is that the women's game is non newsworthy. I'm flabbergasted this stuff gets press coverage. Imagine being so offended that something happened in the world that you just didn’t like, so you go online to boast to everyone that it is non-newsworthy. That is just a lie. The afl alone puts o...

This is a draft with some real quality bigs in the first 40 there is Will green at pick 21 he is a Ruck 204cm 94kg Northern nights or pick 22 Archer Reid 203cm 94kg KPF Gippsland power pick 26 Mitch Edwards Ruck 206cm 89kg Peel thunder WA,Pick 28 Arie Schoemaker 194 91kg Defender Tassie. Pick 13 Jo...

Darcy Wilson sounds perfect for us. Will pick 13 and 21 be enough to get us a pick in the top 10? I highly doubt it. Most years probably this year no I get the feeling they aren’t looking at swapping 2 picks for 1 in that manner. I think they are going for more quantity of quality cattle, rather th...

Coffield and 56 to WB for 40 and 53

Then go to Geelong who only have 8 and offer 13 and 35 (1734 pts) for 8(1551 pts)

What do Geelong need points for?
They don’t have academy or father/son picks to worry about. Points are irrelevant to them this year

I think he needs one.

2 more wins out of 3 and there will be no excuse not to extend.

She would be way down the list of commentators I would ditch.
Not even in the top 10

If there is a fine - I will happily assist - We need a Hammer in a Pumpkin Smash!

Great. I’ll forward your bank details to the club.

11 more points against, and we become the best defensive team for the season.

Gws

They should rest Marshall aswell. Bring in Tommy Campbell to jump into Big O all day. Good idea, however I think RoMa has a chance at the Trevor Barker Medal this year and it'd be unfair to deny him a chance to win it. Sinclair has had a wonderful season but don't discount Rowan. Maybe that's one r...

Double post

I think the big revelation that not as many have pointed out, is that he has played really well as a defender, his natural position.
I was only unhappy having him play as a makeshift forward. He is now doing the role we recruited him for. Key defender cover. He is doing it great

Put a cheeky 10er on the saints to win the flag. $41 at the moment. It drifted out to about $80 a few weeks ago in our lull period.
The milky bars are on me if we win.

Those guys sitting around aisle 28-30 (I think?) Yep. The “Aisle 29” mob. Good bunch of supporters. Always positive, and looking for the best in our players. For the love of Saints Footy. Say hi to Marshy if you ever go past. Everyone is welcome. Just bring your singing lungs. And yeah. It was spec...

Assuming all the other results fall their way and we keep our loss to 4 goals, GWS will probably need to beat Carlton by around 30 points in final game to make it. Eh!! Are you kidding me? 1) GWS beat Carlton (which is entirely plausible…Carlton just got out of jail with Gold Coast) 2) Bulldogs bea...

What I don’t think you realise is, is if we finish 5th on the ladder, but bomb out after the first round of finals, we actually finish 7th in terms of draft picks and favourable draws for next year etc.
same goes if we finish 8th, and win week 1 of finals, we are actually a top 6 side at a minimum.

AFL.com.au is stating Jack Peris will debut this weekend.
Hope he gets a good go at it. I am going to love his speed.
