Re: The Roar opinion piece
Always excuses. This year it was this, that year it was that. Just for once, no excuses would be nice. Why can’t we draft well. Why can’t we develop. Doesn’t matter who is in charge, nothing changes. From what you hear about Basset, he seems to be trying, but we are going backwards….again. We beat ...

Re: Tarryn Thomas, anyone?
Is Tarryn Thomas even that good of a player? He's never shown any sign of being a genuine a grader.
Wish we recruited ben cousins before '09 though.

Re: The Jimmy Situation
They still have very good players who can damage Better midfield than ours LDU Simpkin Scott McKercher A decent ruckman Xerri A better key forward Larkey A better small forward Zirhaar DO NOT take them lightly!!!!

Re: The Jimmy Situation
North Melbourne would lose games at VFL level shouldn’t be worried about them in the slightest. Pick the best side and win.

Re: Footy Fix: Ross Lyon is the AFL's most boring coach once again - and it's suffocating the Saints' season
I’ll take 6 6 after round 12, if we’re lucky. Hopefully we can reset after the bye in round 19 or whenever that is. Thank you, AFL. That would mean we’d win 4 of our next 5. If we do that we’re a lock for finals I would’ve thought. Here’s the REAL question….one I’ve asked last year… Is that REALLY ...

Re: Match Thread Saints v Port Round 7 2024
Disgraceful, insipid, error-filled effort from a poorly coached team devoid of leadership. Saints were a rabble of lazy, ponderous, individuals. They allowed a depleted Port side to over-run them. Big clean out is needed at the end of the year…starting with Howard. Settle down wasn’t that bad. Few ...

Re: Match Thread Saints v Port Round 7 2024
They’ve won 13 of the last 14 against us with just 2 of those games played at marvel over that time. Surely we get 5-6 years of home games in a row against them now?

Re: Match Thread Saints v Port Round 7 2024
I have zero faith any of our forwards can kick a set shot more than 30meters out. I don’t recall ever seeing a forward unit this universally bad at set shot kicking.

Re: Paddy Dow to play for Sandy
Do posters on this site believe Dow is best 22? I don't rate Dow highly, however assume he gets a run when fit due to the Crouch injury and our lack of midfield quality. If we can recruit/ draft some midfield talent I think he becomes depth. Definitely best 22 at present. Probably only Steele, crou...

Re: The Eagles
Also further to add the eagles (along with north) are the poster child for why building relentlessly through the draft is a losing strategy. No team has had more high end pick busts than them over the past 5 years. No team has won a flag off the back of gutting their list and bottoming out for 5 yea...
