He might lift the most but I bet he is lacking core strength.

A lot of these players don't deserve a payrise so give Riewoldt the money haha

Do you know this for a fact?

If that's the case I then expect a few rookies to be upgraded.

I think the club would be satisfied with the output Luke has produced this year. If we or the club know how good he can be, then does it really matter.

I wouldn't do it if I was GWS.

Just had a look at the 2012 Draft. Once you ignore the Rookie elevations, in the main there has not been a lot of success with picks 46 on (and ignore the Rookie elevations). So while my first thought was it was a wasted pick in trading him for pick 46, when you look at it it was probably a fair en...

Turned into that Simpkin/Gwilt type player. Not tall enough to play key position but not agile/quick enough to play that smaller type. Over the off season he needs to do a lot of fartlek so he can improve his defensive efforts.. If he is still retained.

From the vision I saw if he was at least 180cm he'd be in the top 3. Played well in the championships.

After a good debut he had a really good start to his second game. Thing I noticed watching is that he is too deep in the contest. Not sure if its a fitness issue or he times his run late. For a big fella needs to get into more contests. Plenty to work on though!

wouldn't mind Acres in it.

Can someone explain to me why he got a 2 year extended contract last year when there were rumours he wanted to go back to SA?

Import all the Southampton members in England and put them behind the cheersquad and get them singing.

Armitage and our second rounder for pick 2 would probably get it done. But I doubt we would do that.

Spencer the type of bloke that could bring a few extra fans in the gates !

Aish going to pick 7 didn't have anything to do with thinking he'd go back to Adelaide? For a while it was thought he was coming to St.Kilda.

I totally agree that Brisbane did extremely well, but St.Kilda only had 3 selected draft picks. The first two picks have done well and the other player has been injured. So we've done fine for what we had. Although.. I'd be pretty angry if we only have 3 or 4 picks to select again if we don't get qu...

Players like Aish and Taylor have been good additions. They are your genuine midfield type players. Something our club lacks. Young decent mids.

The intensity/tackling/pressure that against Freo was what I expect St.Kilda to do everyweek. But today was non-existent. We have a lot of role bit players who are also very soft going to a contest.
It doesn't help that in today's era they are zones. Not many players know how to defend anymore.

Not trying to be pessimistic, but this match might be a bit closer than the main one?!

2 players haven't even played in the top 10 so how can he be worse?

Maybe Minchington to have another crack as a half forward? Similar skill set to Billings?

Seemed to help the doggies more often than not haha

I'd give a him a go against Richmond on the big stage.

With his body frame I thought he would be good at Marking, but he is far from it. He competes well, but if he can't learn to clunk marks he will never be a good afl footballer.

I prefer it that way. If it was a daytime slot we would have beaten Brisbane due to not having a wet grassy night.
