Agree

West Coast 3rd is the 4th pick. They don't want to give that for Liam Baker without getting something back from Richmond. And Richmond can satisfy them with 21 or 29 or 39 and they will be offering 39 at this stage. Don't be surprised if it is Baker and 29 for Pick 3. If Richmond don't budge, then i...

Would still like to see him tried as a tall defender ... worth a contract and a pre-season training as a CHB.

B: Stocker Cordy Wilke
HB: Bonner Battle NAS
C: Wood Steele Hill
HF: Owens Membrey Henry
F: Higgins King Sharman (relief ruck)

Foll: Marshall Crouch Byrnes

I/C: Wilson Ross Phillipou Garcia

Sub: Jones (if available) or Collard


Missing: Sinclair, Windy, Clark, Dow, Webster, Howard.

Wilson off a back flank may be an interesting rotation through the backline when Bonner and NAS need minutes off.

Garcia might be needed for cover as a small back if Stocker needs a rest / gets injured.

An opportunity to give time to Owens and Byrnes as genuine midfielders in the guts. Let's see Arie at CHB rather than Cordy - please.

We would have to set this all up before other teams grab picks and deals from each other … but hopefully we are not just waiting for the trade bells to ring before we start floating scenarios in the background! We start with 12, 31 and 51 Gresham Coffield Billings looking for new starts. None of the...

Carlton need points next year for both Camporele boys. Dow plus their first rounder this year For Billings and our next year second rounder and our next years fourth rounder We have leverage because technically Dow can just hold off signed and then become a Delisted free agent Essentially that is: B...

No. In 1900 after 48 straight losses, we won our first ever game ..on appeal .

And none since!

I honestly didn't think anybody would get this joke, but you did it! Well played Sir!

It is very clever

Now this is an interesting topic - the sub strategy. It comes down to whether the sub is for adding fresh legs vs covering potential loss of a player through injury. At the moment, I think our sub is based on the type of player we can LEAST afford to lose vs that week's opponent. Against a running t...

I keep reading threads and keep seeing baiting / abuse etc. As such I am moderating until further notice.

While we wait for new mods, I have just sent 1 x warning PM to a baiter and issued 2 x 1 weeks bans. Sainternist and Annoyedsaint. Pretty obvious breaches of the rules. Perhaps have a read of the rules to remind yourselves of what could get you banned. While we await new mods, I might up my reading ...

Hi all As you might know, my personal situation with sick parents, a kid doing VCE and a business to run has meant that I handed over Moderation duties last year. I have made the decision to step away from Saintsational as the Administrator and after having consulted with Damien over the last few mo...

should be fixed now

will look into it.

might be a setting issue.

Hi all

Stopping by to pre-warn you that forum will be down at some stage during the night of Thursday 27 October so that the software can be upgraded.

Thanks

Just popped in to thank Kosi and St. Byron for stepping in.

With one parent in hospital and the other in rehab (from 2 weeks in hospital) I have very little time to be on here.

Really glad to the Saints doing so well.

My thanks to Kosi and St.Byron for stepping in. Dad doing well enough to go to the footy in a wheelchair on Friday and loved it despite the loss. Mum almost strong enough for her second operation so fingers crossed.

Apologies for my absence.

n1ck - I have replied.

I shall try to log on a couple of times a week.

Simon

Thanks everyone.

We need to find two or three moderators for the site.

Please nominate yourselves if interested.

Due to the poor health of both of my parents since December and the time I need for their care, I am unable to continue as administrator and moderator. I am happy to continue paying for Saintsational. I am open to having a discussion on how the forums continue without my involvement and then seek th...

Luke Jackson is already a better centre bounce ruckman than Rowan. It was Jackson’s centre bounce work that sparked the Demons in quarter 3. Around the ground Marshall is stronger for ball ups and a better mark. But Jackson will get there. I am not sure Rowan will ever be a good centre bounce ruckma...
