I remember Barrot as being pretty one dimensional. Burst out of the centre and bomb it long. Couldn't/wouldn't change even though it didn't fit in with the way St Kilda wanted him to play. Yeah, dual premiership centreman, also a Richmond B&F winner, Team of the Century Player and Richmond Hall...

I went to the training today and unfortunately Jack Steven didn't train and was told he was injured does anyone know what's wrong. If it's the foot it a worrying trend. Gilbo wasn't noticed either.

I have been trying to find info on the Stewart Barrott swap. Why did Barrott only play two games at St kilda? Kicked 3 in his first game and was gone 2 weeks later.

Hmm, I got that one wrong. Mistakenly, I overlooked Plugger being #2 in the original Top 20. Given that was a year after he walked from StKilda I don't believe his status will have changed.

I wonder what the main issue was? Petracca? Wanting to Trade Armo out?
