He was but I'm talking just one year. Still haven't seen anything like Dusty as far as match wining like I have this year. Ablett is still the better player over the career at the moment and by a margin.

Danger's 2016 was just as good IMO.

I'm actually a little disappointed in the melts, was hoping for at least three or four campaigners to cop a day off.

Let's reset and have another go.

As you were John mobile phone and TEW.

They're brewing mate, I reckon there's some sort of seismic group melt laying dormant but extremely volatile just under the surface.
 
So, if by some weird stretch of the imagination we don't get Kelly.

We have two decent draft picks.
You know how sometimes teams get a kid in the draft and he turns out to be a gun, and we are really jealous because we traded our pick for a bag of magic beans?
What if we actually used some picks and got some good players?
 
They could both be A graders, I think they have already shown they can break a game open.

Dusty on the other hand was always a different beast he may not have shown much more in terms of his form but he was always a powerful brute of a kid.


I have watched him since he was first drafted and he wasn't huge and played forward a lot like Gresh and JB. He was a strong player always but wasn't like an obvious superstar from day one. He did the stuff that made you think he could be a special player but not all the time.

I'm not that worried either way. The Dogs lost their captain, paid a Million a year for a guy who was struggling in the NAEFL and were so toxic that they looked ready to implode. I was smuggly ribbing my Dogs mates, 12 months later they were laughing at our lack of premierships.

Kelly might come and he might not, we might go to the draft and get the 2 players who are the next superstars of the AFL with those picks. Otherwise we might turn them into two moneyball players who end up making just as much impact as Kelly for half the money that allows us to keep our list of rapidly improving kids together.

Don't stress it, if it happens it happens. While the guy hasn't signed he's still in play.

Gringo, I'm liking the return of your optimistic self :)
 
If we can't get Kelly the only other guys I would like would be Green , Hannebery , Heeney , Sheil , Bont , Shuey or a Merrett and our chances of getting one of these are zero.

So off to the draft
Rayner - mid Lions
Davies-Uniacke - mid Suns
Cerra - mid Blues
Dow - mid Roos
Brander - Key Forward or Back Dockers
Stephenson - Half forward Magpies
Fogarty - Half forward / Mid Saints
Higgins - Small forward / Mid Saints
Hayes - Ruck Dogs
Naish - mid Demons
Coffield - mid / half back Dons
Naughton - key defender Lions
Brayshaw - mid Eagles

This order was taken from Cal Twomeys top 25
suggest the top 5 will be gone before we get our pick - however by listening to the Saints board experts , Higgins , Coffield would be to 2 we are after.

Did they all say Buddy was going to GWS?
No.. They didnt all report that an announcement of him signing at GWS was imminent.
SOME of The media speculated that it was certain he would leave and GWS was the most likely to get him. But they didnt, as what happens alot during trade and FA.
This is different, literally every media outlet.. HS, The Age, AFL website, SEN, SBS, ABC etc have ALL reported on this.
For all of them to be wrong, after releasing articles would be pretty bad.

So back to Stringer...

Are we good enough and bold enough to pull the trigger at the right price?

I am comfortable giving up 1 of our first rounders for Stringer. Draft picks are overrated.

Give him 20 minutes midfield time a game with a view of upping this each year. If we can turn him into a 40+ goal forward who runs through the midfield in bursts we have an absolute weapon on our hands.
 
90% of this forum is people talking crap why censor one. If he's a troll the less response he gets the quicker he will **** off, if he's not he's just having a guess and posting it like it's fact or more unlikely he has heard a rumour. I want to believe John765754342 but at the end of the day guys with more runs on the board don't seem as confident so I'm skeptical, that said until he signs he's still in play.


I was talking about your post. And it was humour. I failed.

If we go to the draft I think we will try to trade up our selection to get one of the top 4 picks which are pure mids. And to use up our player payments we will pick up some player who has been overpaid by another club and they need the salary space...Sydney?

So the singer from Creedence, and the Linguist from "My Fair Lady" ?
 
Just popped over to the Norf JK thread. One of the last posts by KANGASFOREVER

We are ****en hopeless.

PMSL, what a great summation of their club
besides the forums the Saints have been just quietly ticking along poor old North have been talking up their targets and falling short each time.. we both look to have missed on the same players we both wanted but from a media perspective they come out of this looking very poorly ...
