Tough Schedule

Three games in eleven days in 3 different states was always going to take it's toll. Together with a shocking run from the umpires in the first half of tonight's game against the Bulldogs, it really sapped any energy out of the side. By the end of the Port Adelaide game, we will have travelled six t...

Re: Arie SCHOENMAKER

Arie doesn’t have the tank or speed for a wing. He’s playing good footy but plays the role of Battle or Wilkie, two of our better and more durable players. Unless he replaces Sharman, in that forward/ back hybrid (nothing) role I don’t see it. I would love to see him get a run and bang a couple of ...

Arie SCHOENMAKER

Another excellent game from Arie yesterday for Sandringham.

32 possessions, 8 marks, and a great long goal from outside 50.

Is it time to give him a chance?

I am not sure in what position but maybe the wing while Wood is out.

Re: Garcia. Great Debut

Great first game and warrants a spot in the starting line up this week. Get Hastie, Keeler and Garcia in as well and give them a fair crack at it. Butler, Byrnes, Sharman and King don’t deserve their spots right now so let’s have a good look at the kids. As well as Garcia, I would like to see Arie ...

Re: Trade King

Today he had a set shot (maybe his only one) from around 40 metres out, slightly to the right of goal, and it slewed off badly to the left. One would have hoped he would have learnt from last week when he had two shots from the same position which also slewed off exactly the same. And surely it is t...

Garcia. Great Debut

I think this deserves it's own thread.

Showed so much in a quarter and half of footy.

6 tackles, 2 clearances, 11 possessions (7 contested) from 34% game time

Deserves to be given a full game next week

Re: Sandy v Giants

Arie 1 goal 28 disposals 8 marks, how's he looked? He knows how to get the ball and can certainly kick well and get distance. His goal was a long shot from outside 50 on the run. Has probably done more to get a chance at senior level than some of those already tried. I am not sure what his position...

Re: Kicking at goal

Max King still continues to twirl and rotate the ball in his hands before taking a set shot.

Surely this is affecting his accuracy. He misses so many of these gettable shots.

I’ll never understand it.
It’s because he doesn’t have time to spin the ball in his hands before kicking
When is one of the coaches going to stop him doing it. So frustrating!

Re: Match Thread vs Richmond

Richmond's approach the this game was so much more serious than they Saints.

They have been practicing all week in a space the same dimensions as this crap ground. Apparently Lyon scoffed at the idea.

The Saints seem to have no idea how to handle the space.

Re: Sam Fisher pleads guilty to drug trafficking

Caroline Wilson was pointing the finger at Sam Fisher and implying that he had a drug problem as far back as his playing days.

His involvement with drugs seems to go much further back than some are suggesting here.
