Foxsport stayed on until he left the ground. Thank you Nick for all those years of service. One of the best players I have ever seen play for St.Kilda. You will be missed.

So I calculate our percentage as 96.9 which drops us below Footscray and we have back to back picks now.

Please, never again play Weller or Lonie Richo.

It's like us playing 16 against 18 .

Otherwise as far as I'm concerned it is a waste of time following the saints I'm afraid.

What is the purpose of Lonie and Weller?
Genuine question.

They were really bad but Leonie has given it his best shot and is just not up to AFL level. Weller on the other hand has been frustratingly bad given his previous year showed promise. This season he made zero impact and was a total liability to the team. At a better club, he would most probably be delisted after such a woeful year.

God knows....they are imposters and list cloggers.

Lonie is rubbish, can't Mark or kick.
Why did White miss out?
I would have preferred to see Rice or even Marshall or Battle in for Weller.....terrible selections.


Nee!

I know that AFL Fantasy points count for nothing at the end of the day - but they are a prima facie indicator (and backmen should not be included in this as they are stoppers etc), and ......

Billings = Lonie + Weller + Geary (just to make up the 2 points).

Mav provides two essential things
1-....Blocking
2-....there is a lady supporter who has 51 years continuous membership who is Mav's Sponsor
she has a photo on twitter standing with Mr "10 kgs of potatoes in a 5 kg bag"
Is it a judgement based on membership rather than on-field? Just asking the question...

2020 was an aberration, when we travelled twice to Adelaide and won both, beat Tigers early, beat our bogey Swans. 2021 we've returned to our old ways. Damn
