Edited. Double post.

Nice work CQ. Looks a prospect, although Hugh would be a tad annoyed as he looks the same size and similar style. Would grabbing Austin be a vote of no confidence in Hugh? Maybe they are more concerned about his foot injury than they have let on.... Coincidently, they have both had foot injuries bu...

Where did Billy finish?

Jaxons gave us the hint CQ guessed well, Jaxons confirmed, thus making it news. Not sure what all the rivalry's about. No rivalry, just thought it was CQ saints call and nothing to do with Jaxons pat on the back, later call. Calm down. Not a criticism, just an observation. The old Jaxsons is taking...

I wonder if Scotty sent his congratulations?

Excellent thanks jaxons. Was gonna say no way is tomlinson worth first round So many options anything could happen over next 6 weeks. Exciting. 7,8 - Bonar, Stephenson Tomlinson for Hickey, Lonie Austin for 3rd Round I could live with that Wasn't it CQ that gave us the news? Just sayin'. Credit whe...

Terry Wallace- the Mango Mercenary- says Watts is unreal with the ball in hand, 'a great finisher inside F50' but 'it's what he does off the ball that's questionable' so maybe he's a lazy downhill skier. Yeah, Wallace, hard to take him seriously, hey- but he sounds right in this case Agreed MT. I t...

Has someone explained to King that we effectively got Carlisle AND Gresham for pick 5? Or does that still not register in the 4 neurons he possesses in that nest of vipers he calls a brain?

How to turn pick five into a savage loss, by Adrian Dildoro. Out now in all good bookshops and some of the bad ones as well!

This was even better than last year's "Hawthorn steal". Two potential elites for a can of coke and a mars bar, in effect. Suck a big fat one, Dildoro.

Dunstan's a beauty, trust me. I'm no itk, but I'm told he's very highly regarded internally, a future leader, maybe even as captain. His first year was very good and probably raised expectations too high. Second-year blues, then a significant shoulder injury slowed his progress, but getting dropped ...

I think he's quality, just plays like a flog under a flog club with a flog playing group. Far to much flogness at that club from top to bottom for him to flourish. Needs to get out and rid himself of the flogness. Most untapped player in the comp, could be a steal I think you're flogging a dead hor...

Picking up discards and turning them into decent players has been a strength of ours recently. Playfair and McGlynn should have the inside mail on him.

What about Zac Williams? Wasn't there talk he was in our sights? He's quick, can play in the midfield, or provide run and carry from half back. Things we desperately need. Now he is a gun. But is from NSW and is already a star of the team. Not sure why he would leave? The one reason many switch. Fi...

Melbourne's record of developing and extracting the best from their talent is appalling, possibly the worst in the league. Look at all the first round picks that didn't make it. It can't be they were all duds. It's the club. Who knows what his potential would be in the right environment? One thing's...

Talia's a dud. He's been at 2 clubs already and is no good. Trading on his brother's name. Don't do it Saints!! There is a whiff of this about him. David Kernahan anyone? Anthony Harvey? Xavier Richards? All could play a bit but their biggest asset was their surname. We need guns, not list cloggers...

fifteenth in the competition for clearances and finished half a game off top spot. So much for the theory, you have to win the clearances to win games.

You can get away with anything there, apparently.

It's not our reputation. I spoke to a young bloke who's on another club's list and is looking to move. The saints are seen as a club going backwards, not forwards. He said bottom four, like Norf. That's the problem, the perception we are shyte. I don't agree with his assessment, but that is the cons...

We're not beginning to look stupid. We do look stupid, given our stated strategy. The strategy of trading out pick ten has failed. We now look to the draft, tail between our legs to a certain extent. We are clearly not a destination club. Like the other challenger in the race to be the most irreleva...

The pick from Hawthorn was supposed to help land a big fish. Won't even land us a sardine. Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to the draft we go! Not that it's the worst outcome. Just stalled us twelve months. Could've had last year's pick ten in the system for a year already. Oh well, a brave try that hasn't q...

very good

I would've gone for a denture of filth supporters, but they don't have the dentures, just the gums and missing teeth. Happy to go with spittoon. Clubhouse leader.
