Spider Everett’s daughter has signed on with the Sandy women’s. Has a basketball background so perhaps she has inherited the tall genes in that family.

Reminds me of when Jack Hayes came on board. Nobody seemed to know what position he was going to play. He was different and an inbetween build but he showed very early on that he could play. Very disappointed that his career was cut short due to injury

Hall was regarded as the best mid in the VFL when we recruited him mid season. He was injured early, possibly due to the increase in loads from VFL to AFL. When he did play towards the end of the season he showed positive signs but he was limited by the fact he was still coming to grips with the...

Agree re Hanna Priest. She has led the team admiably for a number of years but her skills have dropped right away to the point where she is almost a liability.

Watching him briefly yesterday, during a drill, he was running down the wing to receive and kept up with the play. Seemed fluid with his movement.

If I recall If I recall part of the agreement with Sandy was that Sandy players could train with the Saints players to improve their skills. There was sometimes up to 6 or so Sandy players training with the Saints last pre season and continued throughout the season.

From what I have observed so far Bolton is intense and very direct in his delivery. Gives immediate feedback, could easily get players offside. Would instil a sense of urgency. Seems to know his stuff though

The new Sandy GM probably had a bit to do with it. Has a good reputation in recruitment and development with Sandy Dragons. Apparently his predecssor (the father of the latest ‘it’ players the Ashcrofts) just let the club tick over without really achieving any effective change

What is the appeal of North Melbourne VFL and who is doing the recruiting?

Wasn’t picked up in his draft year, did some pre season sessions with us but I don’t think he got a game with Sandy.

He really tries to take on Wilson in the sprints, very competitive

I think that is a fair assessment from Ralphy he is usually a lot more critical of us

Saw Max doing some running exercises at the ground a couple of weeks ago so he is doing some work. Looked fit.

5 As a general rule they will be training Mon, Wed and Fri I believe.Your safest bet is to contact the club nearer to the time to make sure. They could also be training at another ground or attending a camp etc

This Cooper Lord must be some player.

Another one who is maniacal is the coach Boulton. Will certainly keep them on their toes in drills and sims. Very dynamic.

His dad is an ex AFL senior player (not St Kilda) so he probably thinks he knows better He’s a Peninsula boy isn’t he and best mate of Hunter Clark so we have an advantage don’t we?

Why? Apart from the fact he is recovering from an ACL in his under 18 year, he is believed to be the better player of the two.

Can see some wholesale changes to the team for next season. There is talent and youth there but they just can’t click as a team. Sad to see the loss of form of the skipper Hannah, her future must be in doubt. GP needs to get back on the park, she and Smith have real talent, they are our future...

Where did the game plan and execution go from the earlier games this season.

In another post Hipwell has signed with Frankston

As I said in another post I attended a lot of the St Kilda training sessions, both pre season and in season and in most cases there was, at least one Sandy player and sometimes up to 4, training with the main group. They would sit out match sim but they could still observe. So there are efforts...

What do we gain then by moving to a fully fledged reserves team particularly when St Kilda seems to be pulling the strings anyway

I’m confused as what is the real difference between a reserves team and an aligned team. For example Jake Batchelor has been appointed coach of Richmond’s VFL team. He will have Richmond AFL and VFL listed players in his team. He will also be part of Richmond’s broader coaching group. How do...

I attended many of the Saints training sessions this year, both pre season and in season. There always seemed to be at least one and sometimes up to 3 Sandy blokes training with the group. They would drop out when it came to match sim.

f I agree re his passions of tuition and coaching. Hopefully his contribution is to fast track our young players.

Commentators always biased towards our opposition. It’s as though we are outsiders.

Seb Ross - twin sons, Brad Hill had a son recently.

Oliver Florent was a Sandy boy as well

the Sandringham Dragons, the best under 18 team, have just won their third grand final in a row. They are literally living under our roof at Moorabbin and we don’t receive any benefit at all.
