Well...Brad Crouch did line up for Sandringham in Round 1...

Jack: :whitecheck: Ex-Carlton: :whitecheck: GOP: :whitecheck: Maybe the most St Kilda signing we could have made.

Based on those criteria, and adding in another metric of "Club Captain", that brings us to a team of 22: FB: Baker, Wilkie, Dempster HB: A Jones, S Fisher, Sinclair C: Dal Santo, Steele, Goddard HF: Montagna, Riewoldt, Steven FF: Hamill (captain 03), Gehrig, Milne (missed from the initial list...

Absolutely correct, I hate seeing Saints (and one "Melbourne") fans try to provide context or downplay the severity of this incident. It was a straight-up thug act that has no place in modern football. If an opposition player did that to Paddy McCartin when he lined up for us, those same Saints...

"The Brains Trust hat...and nothing else."

Everyone in here providing their realistic ladder predictions based on their stupid things like stats, form, and "evidence". We all know it's up to random chance, and that's why I used a random number generator to predict my ladder. Here's what it came up with, along with my attempts to justify...

Locks in bold: FB: Wilkie Howard Webster HB: NWM Battle Sinclair C: Hill Steele Wood HF: Owens Membrey Phillipou FF: Butler King Higgins Fol: Marshall Crouch Dow Int: Henry Sharman Windhager Clark Sub: Jones Debatably Best 22: Ross (challenging for spot currently occupied by Dow/Clark/Jones)...

Haven't seen this shared here yet, it seems we've signed up an Irish footballer Liam O'Connell. Reports are he also "attracted interest" from Carlton and Melbourne. Blow for Ballincollig and Cork as Liam O'Connell agrees AFL move to St Kilda

Mine didn't come through for three days so I called the membership number. Person on the phone was very helpful and I had the email in the next ten minutes.

If your first response to this thread is one of disbelief, then I'm not saying you're right or wrong as it's truly horrific to consider that people might have been put through this and it's not wrong to want to believe something like this couldn't have happened. If you then follow up that...

I'm not sure whether to be worried, thrilled or a mix of both that we're reaching a point where our discussion should turn from contemplating which scraps to pick off the successful sides to trying to fend off the vultures from our fringe players. I could see the likes of Byrnes, Bytel...

I knew going in this thread would be a pissing contest and yet here I am, practically soaked. It is an interesting question as to the best way to beat Melbourne just in terms of tactics and structure. Like most great teams, their dominance stems from an elite midfield - however this is...

I don't see Higgins as the one that got away, I see it as Richmond doing right by a player who went through a traumatic experience at a young age that hopefully very few of us could relate to. I completely understand for any Tigers fans to feel hard done by with the way this played out, but I...

Thanks for the new picture, gotta get around Snags

How much time did we waste debating between Hickey and Longer when the real answer was Battle all along?

The "Screw You In Particular" fan who goes to the game week in, week out and only seems to be heard when their specific whipping boy makes an error. Oddly quiet they do something well though, strange. My alternative names for this fan were "Screw You Raph Clarke" and "Screw You Seb Ross" but...

L. Hayes only good enough to make the bench, this side must be amazing.

Brad and Stephen.

Obviously very early days, but I was shocked seeing Mitchell "Not that Mitchell or that Lewis" Lewis in person last week prove to be a very impressive key forward, and not just a meme draftee. From my club, there was no indication that Jack Sinclair would be the only elite player on our list...

Popped over to the Suns board to see how they were feeling about the game and saw this comment which I thought would be worth sharing here. I'm not saying we should all cheer our hearts out for an opposition player, but it'd be nice if we as a fanbase got around Mabior after last week when...

Sorry for the intrusion, just want to say that this is a terrific point and even though he's wearing the opposition colours, I'll join in with your fans cheering him on. The support from his fanbase is obviously vital, but it's a much wider issue that needs to have vocal support from everyone...

I think for selection integrity we should reward Hayes. He was dropped through no fault of his own but for structural reasons, and now his position is required back in the side. It's not a hill I'm going to die on as Campbell has also been in terrific form, but it feels disingenuous to take...

Is this whole thread just a meta-take on the fact that we were playing a match where the goal is to defeat ourselves?

My incredible insight into drafting Andrew is that my crazy pessimistic brain thinks that if we draft Melbourne's NGA, they'll get revenge and draft Owens. This is in no way realistic as clubs don't draft to be petty, but Melbourne have gotten terrific value out of Petty this year so you just...

Short answer: no. Long answer is that we wouldn't give up a top 10 (11 after Daicos/Darcy bids) to gain points for players we are likely to get anyway. Worst case scenario we go into deficit for next year (well the actual worst case is they both are selected top 20 and we don't get to match...

Posted this on the main board but I think you'll appreciate my reasoning here. I've decided to test myself by posting my ladder prediction alongside a randomly-generated ladder prediction. I can't wait to learn that I know less about football than a random number generator. My predictionMy...

Not fussed if we choose to split Pick 9 into two top 20 picks, but I would prefer we hold onto our pick until the day of the draft so we can see if there's a slider. I remember us targeting Hickey because we thought Grundy was going top 3, then he slid all the way to the Pies and we missed our...

Seeing as how often this stuff backfires, boy I'd sure hate to get Owens and Windhager. Wouldn't that be awful.

Hi, I'm Troy McClure ZedNotZee, you might remember me from such posts as this long-winded explanation of draft points. I'm here today to give you an update following Collingwood trading for Lipinski as well as downgrading 22 to 27, plus what this might mean in our pursuit of Xerri. I won't go...
