Rewatched the replay this morning and myst say he looks prospect. Still think he may struggle with a close manned opponent but he was almost best for Essendon

Wasnt soft in any way.

Half indigenous only through his Mum's side

That is just so wrong. He is indigeneous. You are basically calling him a half caste.

Leave that mentality to last century and Andrew Bolt.

Brad Johnson raised it last week with the lack of consistency in Paddy's technique when kicking at goals. Action went trom straight leg follow through to bent leg punch at the ball. The others who are meant to be excellent shots Billings is going at less than 50%, Membrey & Lonie also missing e...

My argument was built around supporting a fellow poster (Devilhead) who had bothered to look beyond simplistic, archaic, suburban football based 'expertise', to suggest a 20 y.o. was on a reasonable path (as has been acknowledged by all his coaches, and his team mates). So well put. The myopia of s...

WT Living F? Jason Blake was never handpicked by Lyon. Watson Blight Thomas All had Blake in the seniors. Apart from that Lyon has proven his Saints stint wasnt circumstance. Has done the same with Freo. OOB and interchange restrictions have buggered his swarm/press stoppage, rolling maul, stoppage,...

I have criticised Jack because I think he is cruising and not delivering on his potential Well he is cruising alongside two of the best rated youngsters in the land in Bontempelli and Josh Kelly At a quick look his stats are also extremely comaparable against Luke Ball And Dal Santo in their 3rd ye...

The king of hindsight strikes again in this thread.

Fair Dinkum

Now Richmond has said the are not after Hurley, he must have chosen the Saints.

stonecold - please confirm.

I can't believe the bottom has just fallen out - given where Freo was last season. I'd accept that the injuries could have brought them back down to the level of a Melbourne or Carlton (or where we are, say) ... but all these teams, even Essendon, have wins on the board. They got old very quick and...

Impatient Saints is not even a member. All he does is pot our players.

Buy a membership <edited by mods>

Not a supporter in my opinion.

Didnt have a man and once we started to find targets going inside 50 his run off HBF was ineffective. I understand totally what JM means. Once he has a close checking opponent he will go missing. Hi possessions dont hurt. Could not disagree more. His man was Gresham and AMT tore us apart in the fir...

As a head to head got the chokkies over Parish, however he was in a dominant midfield and Parish has been thrown to tbe Wolves

Better game. He's fortunate to get so many opportunities, but he has had a good one today. Still dont think he kicked it 10 times (has not had 10 kicks this year, but found it a fair bit. Hands were better. He needs to to really get 20-25 as a support mid. Sometimes it's not all about getting the b...

Just win.

Steele would be nice. Prestia will leave GC. Steele probably cheaper

No to Hurley.......he might be a reasonable player but we should have a no dickheads policy.....I can't forget him beating up a cab driver a few years ago. We've obviously been targeting players with good character over the last few years; let's stick to that and land ourselves a gun midfielder ins...

If it costs our first rounder, no thanks

yup great record

It's pot luck. Our strength and conditioning would be amost identical to every other squad... I would even hazard that our lack of soft tissue injuries whilst being pot luck could also be from being on the overly conservative side of strength and conditioning...but end of the day, just pot luck.

Acres should have had his arse kicked all week, but he was not alone and had plenty of mates. Would like to see Fisher back, Gilbo back to the mids, DMAC in for Lonie, and the rest of them play like they bloody well want to. WCE game was appalling and unacceptable. Show some pride Saints and lift yo...

A few injuries would create a few opportunities. Not ideal, but wouldn't be the end of the world. Sent from my SM-T210 using Tapatalk Or the coach could "create some opportunities". Just because they are all fit doesn't mean you have to play them. Or is Richo in debt to the oldies and doe...
