Do any insiders come here these days? I'd love to know a bit more about this one.

Re: Dow in Coffield out

It's annoying to lose the guy we drafted with pick 8, but we got the guy drafted with pick 3 the same year.

Re: Gresham

We needed the player we thought Gresh was going to be, not the player he ended up being. I still don't really understand why they tried making him a mid, when he was very good as a half forward early on.

Re: Welcome to the club Liam Henry

He was pick 9 in 2019, averaged 20 possessions in 16 games this year, including a 32 and 33 from memory, despite not reaching 50 games yet, is quick, and cost us less than some had anticipated. Finding fault with this trade is really looking at it as a glass half empty.

Re: Nasiah

He has been very good, and yesterday he was very composed and involved. It was amusing seeing him standing near Sinclair at one point. Sincs has massive calves, while Nas has twigs!

Re Stocker, interestingly Ross wasn't too complimentary about him in the press conference!

Re: Match Thread Saints v Giants Round 10 2023

It might have been mentioned in here already (not sure, as I was at the game and not on here!), but there was a tremendous amount of support for St Kilda at the ground. It seemed like it was all St Kilda along the bottom level on the outer wing (the far side of the ground as per the tv cameras). I f...

Re: Paton v McKenzie

It's great when players actually make it. Paton showed good signs early on, while DMac took a bit longer to get a consistent run in the side. Paton's done very well to return successfully from a bad injury.

I'm looking at thr Breen entry in the Heroes With Haloes book. It looks like his father played for Kerry before migrating to Australia. Barry was recruited from De La Salle College and played juniors for Mentone. Tasmania doesn't crack a mention. He played for Victoria.

Re: Autopsy Thread: Saints v Freo

Steele only had 15 and Gresh 18 according to the AFL app. I'm still not convinced Gresham is a mid. Battle was excellent. It's the kind of game we'd like to see from him a lot more often. WM had a very solid debut. He liked composed and had some nice kicks. King and Higgins turned it on when the tea...
