I like what Essendon have done! Don’t know how they did it? But they have a solid list now - will be top 8 for the next 3-4 years Essendon’s 22 tonight was a year and a half older than ours. They had no players playing under the age of 20. St Kilda have fielded the 2nd or 3rd youngest 22 every week...

Someone should send a letter to the President and ask him does he think his plan will bear fruit before Tassie suck the life out of the near future's talent pool ? Explain this point further for me. Do you seriously think we are that far off we will still be going to the draft with top end picks in...

Rebuilding to me Means you are changing your core and building a different list There is also and element of bottoming out for a few years to get access to the best talent to build a new core We still have Steele, Sinclair, Hill, Butler, Marshall, Ross, Membrey Pretty much all from Ratten’s list an...

A rebuild That’s not what Basset thinks, Ross thinks and what was suggested at the start of the season. If we are in a rebuild who are our top DPs driving our rebuild Wilson 18 Phillipou 10 NWM 11 Owens 33 Byrnes 53 Not exactly the Harley Reid, Nick Daicos level! To be fair every bit of evidence su...

One inside 50 to our advantage that quarter. One. That’s 4 out of 24 for the game. Pathetic. 2 instances stood out, Sinclair on a centre break running forward just bombed it on top of Membrey’s head. Wilson running forward under no pressure with plenty of space and targets forward kicks it straight...

Good news defensive structures are mostly holding up well, in the air we are class above. At ground level though that is the worst half we have put together under Ross Lyon. Fortunate to be just 2 goals down.

2 ground ball clearances in a qtr. Is that an AFL record?

I cannot believe what i am seeing. We are getting slaughtered at ground level like never before. Winning everywhere else on the ground tho.

At ground level this is the poorest I’ve seen us play since Watters days. Getting dominated, yet to win a ground ball contest this qtr.

Im all for Mattaes to be dropped, but the constant bashing and making him the new whipping boy is beyond a joke old boys. I can think of a few players who are worse *cough* Byrnes *cough* You all need to just CALMA DOWN Whipping Boy? What about you guys proclaiming he’s going to be a star calm down...

Sicily out. Must win game now anything less would be as disappointing as losing to north would be.

Condescending, much?

Apologies muscles.

I have to admit I genuinely hated hill in his first few years; Hard to fathom genuinely hating a player that represents our club. Thinking he was not a good signing, or overpaying, or not being used correctly under Ratten are weird reasons to hate someone. Unless you know him personally... Bit of H...

Not sure how I feel about this, he’s time at north left a lot to be desired. Despite the incessant false media narrative that north are now “debt free” pushed primarily by the “Arden st coffee club” journalists, north are actually in a seriously precarious financial position, with the prospect of lo...

I have to admit I genuinely hated hill in his first few years; however he’s turned his form around and has been super impressive this season. Great signing.

How many sponsors can a club have haha, the coaches polo is going to be lit up with sponsors like times square.

He also rolled his ankle towards the end of the game.

The club is saying he is a big chance to play which I find hard to believe.

Even if he does play he will be severely underdone.

Surely Sicily misses with a dislocated shoulder. Massive out for them if so.

As much as I hate to support the “protect the head at all costs” push by the AFL. Libba’s tackle has to be minimum 3 weeks. Anything Less would be objective evidence that there is bias against st Kilda at the tribunal (as much as it sounds nuffy to declare that).

Ross post-game said Liam Henry trained well today and will come straight in next week. There are a few candidates to make way for him. Who do you think? For me Garcia, Byrnes, bonner, pou, membrey & hastie are probably the six that will need to fight hard for selection over the next month with ...

5 Wilson
4 Sinclair
3 NWM
2 Hayes
1 Hill

Sheezel has averaged almost 30 disposals per game since.

What about the picks 4,5,6? All spuds.

Settle down. Moronic call.

King has been very poor today, probably his worse game for the club given how bad his direct opponent is. The so called Messiah is now nothing more than a Prima Donna and should be treated as such, put him back to Sandy and make home earn his spot. Shouldn’t be dropped, hasn’t been the worse on the...

My final comment, Liam stoker is incredibly underrated. Makes the odd c**k up with the ball but is very solid defensively and should have a long career.
