No I would not have extended his contract He did a medical before he was traded in - not sure why he passed? Surely they scanned him? After his last game against the Swans you seemed keen to retain him on a base contract. Thank god the club saw better than putting the chips back on the table. I’d l...

Worth 2 at best.

Firstly, the below article refers to a 2024 amendment to rules that previous decisions or tribunal hearings have no bearing on new cases. Effectively it is a whole new process (around head knocks) in 2024 is my reading of this and given court cases and the dramatic effects of CTE I think the plan is...

4-6 in todays game.
Struck the head, jumped into the player.
After ball was disposed of.
Unnecessary, brain fade.

4 would be a VG result for JW.

So what do injuries look like for R1?

Best 22 players
Sinclair?
Jones?
Windhager?
Clark - in
Butler - out

Fringe players
Dow - out
Paton - out
Hayes - out

Reserves players
Van Es - out

Sinclair the major concern, all others more easily covered.

Any others?

If history is anything to go by He is clearly our second best mid Equal with Crouch imo Criminally underrated by ignorant supporters Also criminally overrated by ignorant supporters. Not sure there's a metric that exists to back up the claim that he is currently equal with Crouch. Crouch AVERAGED 2...

Taryn Thomas is a top 10 talent, but sounds like a #1 dick of human (female rom reports read in press).

Would you take the punt on him next year as a DFA?

Pretty much every poster has wanted him out of the side for 3 years Read this thread and any other that involves Seb Outside of me and Saynta- he is ridiculously underrated Never seen such a good player get bagged - in 40 years supporting the saints - he is the most underrated (by fans) player in m...

Our list needs to manage to find a big classy CHB. J.Battle is a star, but to go all the way you need that hulk: intercepting, hurting, spoiling. I think our backline is a major strength, we don't have a May or a McGovern, but we have two current AA backs and a talented group with Wilkie, Sinclair ...

Are you referring to the Saints or Carscum ?

What would be your best guess Ray ?



Who is Ray???

Saynta...aka Stinger

For some reason I thought it was Raymond Stinger

I went to training today, the practice match was what i enjoyed watching most. When the Red team was made up of the likely 23 for round 1 they were too good for the Blue team which looked like it was the Saints Sandy contingent. Heath, Hayes, Clark and Van Es were all part of the injured group doin...

Must admit I always got a chuckle out of the Stuart Broad chant by the Barmy Army.

There might be some tweaking here of Nasiah!

Collaboration When its all said 'n done They gunna call me gun I'm gonna take it on And make the opposition run So good it's f***** scary Much better than dad Terry Them saints know what their havin I'm even better than Gavin Don't call me the messiah For I am no damn pariah On the field I aint no ...

I live in SA and I love all the positive training, match sim reports. I listen to SEN Vic because it's not SA biased. I love Johnnie from Epping and Margaret, she didn't sound well this morning so I hope she's OK. I got really annoyed this morning when they did a segment .. who goes out of 8 the 8 ...

You mean the Barrister who has tracked me down after a long lost relative has left me $50M US in an overseas bank account may not be genuine???

We’ll see who’s right when the $20 grand I sent to him to complete the paperwork and release the funds clears and I’m rolling in cash

If Byrnes is playing round 1 we haven't improved. Geez man, it's early 2024 and you are already into Byrnes. Give bagging the players a rest, at least until the season starts. What if we find a compromise. If Byrnes hasn't improve and is playing round 1, we haven't improved. Ross likes players who ...

Poor guy, another facial fracture at training in match sim (on AFL website).

Orbital bone (just under the eye).

Hopeful it is not too serious and for a speedy recovery.

Given Yorkeys post on clubs we struggle against, what about players that regularly cut us up? Lets limit to one opposition player per poster! # you can't be clever and list a saints player :lol: 1. Sonny Walters (3 votes) Surely Freo pre game locked in a 3 vote performance for Walters every time the...

It's not pretty reading.

Gold Coast, University and The Bears are our preferred opponents, I wonder what rounds we'll get them in this coming season.

I don’t see him as best 22, however he has the ability to impact a match with his hard work both ways and his pace as he has done coming on as a sub or in his better games. He is very good depth based on last years output. If he’s a slow burn improver who becomes first choice I think that would be g...

It was very difficult as they were confused which team to cheat against

Not bagging him simply stating a fact.

You are confusing the word fact with opinion.

Sounds like a great idea to me!

Imagine if we were struggling mid season and got the opportunity to trade a mid range plodder like Russell Greene for a couple of guns like Tony King and Mark Scott!
