Wilkie- praise from Kane Cornes

Post: # 1956334Post WellardSaint »

Cornes is just another former player with a media job.

Here's a warm fuzzy story for the helluva lot of Saints fans who cry about our guys being underrated, not getting recognition, being ignored by media, yada yada yads.
Look, as supporters, we know the value of our guys, our club knows their value, the oppo knows their value because they put a bit of time in working out how to negate them...

Cornes on SEN says Wilkie has to be in AA contention.
He named a Blues defender as the best, and says Wilkie has to be next. Callum has the skills, the nous and the work ethic to contain opponents. Mentioned how Callum quelled Tex Walker.

Personally I think he likes picking on any Crows player if he gets a chance, so he pumped Wilkie's tyres to bag Walker.


A real Sainter will pledge allegiance to the ❤🤍🖤 and despise the Pies, the Blues, and the Injectors.

As is Sincs. Our defence is so improved.

Very true.. one reason for this is continuity, having the same back 7 set up week in, week out.

Yep. And depth. Lienert has slotted in there well when he’s played. Dmac has become much more consistent and run sand tackles hard in defence. And Highmore in the twos unable to crack it for a game.

They were all suggesting he was in AA form, hopefully the selectors were watching?
