Yeah but have you seen his cover drive?
We need players who hit straight drives, instead of shanking it through the covers.

Re: It is off season

It's a tiny part of the TPP. They can use it anyway they see fit. Jack had an opportunity to demand his spot back by his actions. On the training track and in his games at Sandringham. Maybe Billings avoided one too many contests for Ross's liking If I was Ross Lyon and I had a guy like Billings wh...

Re: As It Stands

As It Stands

Now St Kilda has picks 13, 21, 40 & 92. Pick 13 will drift back few places and pick 21 probably back 5 places on the draft night. It has 4 vacancies that must be filled to reach a minimum 36 senior players but can have 2 more senior players at the expense of rookie A places. It has the maximum 6...

Would be happy to take the rest of our picks to the draft now.
Agreed, get some quality for picks 13 and 21 then catch a slider with pick 40.

Re: Dow in Coffield out

Now have picks 13, 21, 40

Have lost future 2nd & 4th round picks but gained future 3rd round pick (tied to Carlton).

That is all except for finding a home for Billings & McKenzie.

Re: Dow in Coffield out

All that matters
St Kilda got Dow, lost Coffield
Got pick 40, (429 points) + future 3rd round tied to Carlton), lost pick 35 + pick 56, 522 + 194 = 716 points = pick 20)
St Kilda lost 287 point for Carlton future 3rd so less than 100 points
Basically St Kilda traded Dow for Coffield

Re: Welcome to the club Liam Henry

So the 4th round exchange means Freo are confident they're gonna finish above the Saints next year? Amd effectively means we got Henry for a second-rounder. Meanwhile the Gresh trade lands up with pick 21. Is Henry an upgrade on Gresh? Or simply better-suited to our needs? If so, we've done very we...

Re: Welcome to the club Liam Henry

Who is using 4th round picks anyway? St Kilda's 4th round pick this year is in the hands of Gold Coast It is presently pick 74, the first pick to be valued at ZERO points. It can't even be used to queue jump for Northern Academy or Father-Son selections. Exchanging 4th round picks is like the recru...

Re: Jade Moneybags

FWIW I have no issue with any player chasing money. They have a limited time in the game and the opportunity to earn reasonable cash when at the top of their powers. Most AFL players don't make exorbitant money after they retire. But we studied ASX listed company Johns Lyng Group Ltd (JLG) in the l...

Re: Billings wants out

Ratten loved him, but Ratten has left North and maybe is giving away coaching.
If Ratten goes elsewhere that is where JB may go because Lyon does not want him.
