Re: Special Message to Curly

There’s some weird stuff going on on this forum - I don’t really know the curly agenda other than he gets pissed when the frees for and against are bad - which unfortunately is most weeks I’m pretty sure most recent years back him up re the stats of our ‘frees for’ Does he think there’s an afl consp...

Re: Special Message to Curly

I have been reluctant to get involved in the debate about the free kick against Hayes last week. However, as I saw it, the player was brought to ground with his arms completely pinned, which is always a dangerous tackle (albeit nothing bad happened on this occasion), and certainly should be against...

Re: Has Cartlon Gone Past Us ?

They are full of top 10 draft picks , we are full of mature age South Australian state league players - and as good as those guys have been we probably can’t expect to be a top team this year

Re: Changes for next week

Kent, owens, Byrnes out
Sharman, long & ? In

Long has lost confidence due to tribunal treatment which I think has bern harsh - saints need to tell him to play his natural game - even if he is just adding pressure and tackling he’s better than Kent

Re: Too brave. Saints count cost

Was leaning forward reaching for the ball and didn't bring his arm in quickly enough to brace for impact. Was hit slightly from behind while his arm was not in the correct position. This left the joint exposed. If his arm was by his side and properly tensed he would have got up up and kept playing....

Re: Too brave. Saints count cost

Clark has a poor technique in protecting himself... Contributed to this latest injury I agree with this - can’t fault his bravery - but he needs to protect himself for impacts a little more - leaves himself open I think If he doesn’t address this I’m concerned he is going to spend a lot of time on ...

Re: New rule: Not questioning umpiring decisions???

I can see what the league is aiming for - but as already discussed above this is way too subjective and open to umpire error if it is to be 100% zero tolerance - which is what seemed to be the case last night The umpires will have way too much influence on the outcome of a game if this goes wrong wh...

Re: Practice Match Carlton v St.Kilda - Ikon Park, Thursday 24th February, 10:00AM

I just want to know how Carlton can keep bringing in big dollar recruits each year ? Saad , Williams,Cerra maybe a few lesser likes on top of that - plus with their previous run of poor seasons they are stacked with top 10 draft picks who must demand some kind of decent $$

How does it add up ?

Re: Saints looking to fill Coffields list position

I think he spent a fair bit of his time at Geelong training as a defender - but has been utilised forward and back on game day for who ever he has played for the last few years ? Cant say I'm an expert on him - but have wondered more than once why haven't had a crack at him over the last year or so ...

Re: Saints looking to fill Coffields list position

I'm willing to admit that Corey Enright might know a bit more about Blake Schlensog than I do - but I dont know why we arent having him train ?

I cant see why we would consider Naish given who we already have on the list

Re: Jack Hayes

Well, if we haven't already, all clubs could now snap him up, as of back on the 10th up until the 9th of March. If another club approached him, you would think he would pay us the courtesy of giving us a chance to make him an offer. Gives him some bargaining power. But I suspect it is only us inter...
