    Discussion State of our jumper

    I might have missed others talking about this...but what is with the white in our jumper getting thinner and thinner? It looks terrible this year. It should be close to three even strips, not a tiny white line down the middle. Our home strip currently looks as bad as it ever has I think. Is...

    Autopsy Round 1, 2018: St.Kilda v Brisbane

    Interesting you thought Sinclair was disappointing, I really rated him yesterday. Was calm under pressure in a number of situations yesterday and thought his way through it, seemed to keep his feet a few times when others were falling around him, and laid some really good tackles...

    List Mgmt. Trade: National Draft selection no. 21 traded to St Kilda for Rhys Stanley and selection no. 60

    I don't think we were ripped off. This is going to be one of those trades that takes a while to see if anyone won or lost. Rhys has a huge amount of potential, but the problem at the moment is it is just that - potential. He's essentially had one great game in six seasons. He could easily find...

    List Mgmt. 2014 Draft Trade FA Megathread

    'That they have now or that they could acquire' means that it sounds to me like we're talking about GWS 3 and 7 and we've rejected that.

    List Mgmt. Trade: National Draft selection no. 21 traded to St Kilda for Rhys Stanley and selection no. 60

    Honestly? I doubt it. He is an absolute disaster as a defender, he played there throughout 2013 and had nothing. Main issue is that he has terrible acceleration, so just couldn't keep with players over short distances. He'll be a good forward though, especially playing on the forward flank...

    List Mgmt. 2014 Draft Trade FA Megathread

    If I were St Kilda, I would go to Boyd and offer a better pay packet and deal than WB. We have the capability. Massively front load it so that it doesn't affect our FA push in a few years. Then offer Pick 1 to GWS for Boyd and 19. GWS get Petracca, can still use 4 on either Wright or McCartin...

    Dustin Martin Contract Thread [GWS Will Not Offer Dusty a Contract]

    Fair enough guys, we'll see what happens. Dusty is clearly worth a very high draft pick or two, I just don't see why any club would give it when they could get in his ear and get him to leave for nothing. They could just say no to any trade offer Richmond proposes, put a price on his head and...

    Dustin Martin Contract Thread [GWS Will Not Offer Dusty a Contract]

    If Dusty leaves it is apparently for the money. So he'll basically go to the highest bidder, because he can say no to whatever trade Richmond put forward if it doesn't suit him. Therefore, another club entering the trade process doesn't matter if they're not willing to pay Dusty the same amount...

    Dustin Martin Contract Thread [GWS Will Not Offer Dusty a Contract]

    Realistically, that will absolutely never happen. Not even close. If GWS want him they'll just tell him to walk into the PSD and pick him up for nothing. Why would they give you a first round draft pick?! Through the goodness of their heart?

    Which club has the best celebrity fans?

    Geoff Ogilvy? He's also a passionate Saints man, marks his ball in Saints fashion. There used to be a picture of it on the Titliest website, but I can't seem to find it now. I'd say Shane Warne is fairly internationally famous as well. Very outspoken Saints supporter.

    List Mgmt. 2013 Trade / Draft / Free Agency

    I think one thing people may not have considered re Boyd is the possibility of trying to effectively 'draft tamper' in the way that Melbourne did last year to get Viney in the second round. A few trades have been discussed between us, the Demons and the Giants. Who's to say part of that trade...

    List Mgmt. 2013 Trade / Draft / Free Agency

    People don't seem to have any good reason why Melbourne might pass on Boyd? I know they got Hogan, and I know they are in need of midfielders, but we're in a similar position! The club has stated that we are happy with our current forwards in White and Lee going forward, and we're also in...

    Discussion Round 9: St Kilda V Western Bulldogs

    I think what they meant by that is that he is so good, players are worried about him even when he is 70 metres off the ball and will still try and stop him where ever he goes, so he is more likely to get hit and therefore get free kicks.

    Roast Herald Sun | Paywall starts here

    I very much respect Whateley, but I'm not sure I agree about this. I'm not quite as despondent about St Kilda's future as Gerard seems to be, nor am I going to castrate Watters for not playing Murdoch, Saunders or Lee this weekend. We still have a number of 'future players' playing, and all of...

    Oh the irony... Plugger, your chat about St Kilda is very valuable. So stick to talking about St Kilda, rather than other posters or umpires.

    Discussion Round 9: St Kilda V Western Bulldogs

    Of course everyone is allowed to have their own view of team selections. Unfortunately, when you say come out and say something like this, that Ledger or Curren should come in instead of Lenny because it will help our team win, you lose a lot of credibility. I for one was watching the posts...

    Ah okay, if you guys only need a ruck then I guess no deal is going to happen with the number 1 pick then.

    List Mgmt. 2013 draft and trading

    I heard somewhere that you guys weren't all that interested in grabbing Boyd at the end of this year as you feel comfortable with the forward line you've got going forward, which has led to a bit of a discussion on our board about the possibility of trying to trade with you for the number one...

    List Mgmt. 2013 Trade / Draft / Free Agency

    I'd argue no-one has any idea what we've got with Stanley, he's still speculative. He hasn't shown himself to be a "good" level player in any position, and whilst he hasn't disgraced himself at full back, we're just hoping he improves, really. I'd rather put that hope in a number 1 draft pick...

    List Mgmt. 2013 Trade / Draft / Free Agency

    I understand that, but I don't think the club were too fussed with losing him. They were happy with a first round pick for him considering our list position, but didn't want to be seen as the bad guys in trading him away. Giving him a reasonable deal, but one he's not going to accept, makes him...

    If we don't show a bit of faith in Dal, why should any of our players show loyalty to the club going forward? We'll lose more than we gain in the long run, you need to earn loyalty from your players, not expect it. The Saints and Dal have mutually earned loyalty, they both need to just keep a...

    No. What's the obsession with trading NDS? Not a good move for the culture of the club if you're trading out guys like that, especially when they still have years left in them. Terrible move. Find another way to get Frawley, or move on to someone else and be satisfied with a Mitch Brown...

    Review Positives & Negatives - Saints v Crows - R8 2013

    What's the point of getting the clearance if you can't keep the ball?! The aim of the game is to end up with the highest score, not the highest number of ineffective clearances.

    Did you actually watch the game today? Farren was far, far from the worst. Thought he was actually one of our best in the first half.
