Re: Playing for your Career

When you have the recent win/loss record that St Kilda has and you are looking to improve team performance the spotlight is on every player - and perhaps, just perhaps there is too much focus on the Captain to bring a "feel good" story the Club seem to be relying on at present. I would pu...

Re: Saints Grand Final lineup in 2018

The plan was a flag by 2020 and top 4 I think by 2018. Like all plans, they are subject to change/delays! You are spot on Smilies - I stand corrected. I just re-read the Strategic Vision document again (below) and it is to be a top 4 side by 2018. http://sainters.net/uploads/140313-Strategic-Plan-E...

Re: Saints Grand Final lineup in 2018

We need more Guns. Whether that is by some youngsters at the club taking some huge steps or by draft/trade/FA and most likely a bit of them all. Right here and now we do not have the top end talent to be a Top 4 team anytime soon. We have a good support caste, and arguably a better "bottom six...

Re: Who captains this week?

Gears should be named Captain... Of the Warrnambool Thirds far too harsh. Our defenders this year have clearly been under the pump and Gears has actually been very good in his locking down of dangerous opposition. His effort is always 10/10 and I think far too many supporters get on his back becaus...

Re: Jack Billings is he ok.

JB is only 20 and has shown enough that he will be very good for us.

Coming off a leg injury and just needs to go back and get some confidence racking up high numbers.

At this stage the one thing he needs to learn is the sort of pressure applied like Mav

Re: Saints Grand Final lineup in 2018

Interesting that everyone seems to think we are going to draft or trade a new side by 2018.
Lots of realists in this forum.

Re: My biggest disappointment so far this year

Lonie 's pressure is great but unfortunately his tackles are not sticking and his goal kicking has let him down.
Fortunately for him, I'm sure the club will give him some time.

As for Acres, I have real doubt he might not make it. he is let down by his lack of pace and decision making.

Re: Something I Don't Understand About Our Backline

Can't underestimate the loss of Carlisle this year.
He's who we have missed to release either Fish or Dempster.
Line up Carlisle & Huey together in future years and our rebounder's will rip em apart.

Re: Who captains this week?

Mav.
He missed out on captaining in the Mackay washout so makes sense.
If not him then Armo
