Even with impact injuries, fatigue plays a part.

If he gets a game, it's because he is ahead of them . What if he is better? Do we never recuit rookies who may or may not be better than what we got ever again? He has only been offered a list spot- no guarantee of games What have either of Byrnes or Bytel done that makes them a better prospect?. B...

hmmm... so much so for a high profile appointment.

Harsh assessment on Stocker. How old do you think he is? Same draft and same school as Max, pick19, was a free hit as a SSP. Was invited to train and had to prove himself which the coaches obviously think he has. Quite likely one that didn't handle the covid lockdown well. Was there someone that's ...

You know there are jobs for the boys... just have to look for them. I am just writing off Bassat now. Just another in a long list of whatevers... Pies stuffed up their list royally and the one good move was to get Craig McRae. Saints did well to get Ross, but Silvagni is a liability.. if for nothing...

What’s the injury Fracture?? I heard meniscus. Saints.com site says it’s a metatarsal break in left foot and he’s being operated on tomorrow to stabilize it. Metatarsal breaks aren’t great… 10 week injury means he then needs 6-10 weeks of training after training start to get to a fitness break even...

Why is Paddy at the training, even if watching only? Any chance to do an SSP insurance pickup?

Put it this way, Kennedy isn’t going to get StK to a premiership next year. He will take a development spot away. So, it’s better to play Cooper and see him as a Membrey replacement when he goes. Membrey is close to 30 anyway…

Sorry Nick, the grass always looks greener in a different backyard.

USA is not a good alternative for a middle aged dad who is on a cruise control financially. Just doesn’t make any sense.

I am expecting him to be back in 2024 In Melbourne.

AIS how I am thinking of the ladder. Maybe swap 1 pies with 1 bolted?

Take these in context. Matt Allison didn’t finish last but is still to debut. The top 5 in Wood’s group though are a higher chance to feature in round 1.

I think I’m going to call this early… Will be the pick of the bunch and in hindsight an absolute steal at where we got him. Hotten wasn’t one that I followed pre-draft but geeez this kid looks like a silky explosive, bull of a midfielder. Oozes class. IMO an incredibly impressive highlights team th...

If you see Richmond games from that time, they were wrong footed on fitness and continually performed badly in the second half of games. So, st kilda’s fitness at that point was quite good.

Great highlights reel. My blues scum supporting mate reckons he will get a game seeing how crap our list is, Ask your mate what his favourite highlight was last season, losing to a crap list and missing the finals or choking the life out themselves and missing finals? Speaking of getting a game...N...

2.9 Relationship between football and the rest of Club. The Review highlighted that we should continue to sharpen our focus on football, minimise distractions to the Football Program and maximise support. In particular, we have decided not to sell a home game in 2023 and to apply a strong football ...

He didn't do a lot wrong, he gave his all. His issue was that he was a midfielder trapped in a KPP's body and he couldn't work out how to bridge the gap. He could have been a decent hybrid defender. I'm glad we gave him a go. He wasn't far off at all. But he did make mistakes under pressure and did...

Looks Fait Accompli

Should have been sacked for the Hannebery & Hill disasters ages ago.

Instead, got promoted from COO to CEO. I guess some people play by different rules.

Don’t worry. I don’t expect mediocrity next year. That would imply a 8-12 ladder spot.

I am guessing 15-17th at this stage.

@groupie1 Rucks usually play for a long time than the usual midfielders. Ryder played till 35. No reason for Grundy not to.

Agree re NWM. The SA clubs will have a pick in 2024 draft to trade then or it can be a player.

I am struggling to see how the Hopper deal will get done. Richmond gave 12 and 19 for Tim Taranto. Now they are planning to give a future first rounder for Hopper. How is that within rules to trade both the first rounders in current and next year. Pies traded Grundy for pick 27 (probably another sal...

I wish you said that to Fraser Gehrig

What a d move. Shameful!
