[Yass03]

Hanging for us to get back in with our F1 now

Im desperate for this. I wanna see one mid come through.

A few Tauru videos to check out:

Nothing to do with the kid it's the club list management deficient in one clear area and completely ignored it. Trav will be a good halfback but that's not what we need

Picked best available
We need good players in all positions and we have got 2 great kids

 

[hangdog]

Would there have been as many melts if we chose Tauru before TT?

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Alix. We have gone all out on bogan names

 

[SteeleSaints]

Well credit to Twomey he got them all right. Welcome to the Saints Tobie & Alix.

 

[D2D3]

The plan was to pick the best available player at our pick.

Yeah we’ve heard that one before. Every single year we perpetually close our eyes, plug our ears and pretend the most important position on the ground doesn’t exist.

If no one we liked was there we should have worked a c*** ton harder to move up even on position in the draft to actually get what we needed

 

[my name was taken]

Looks a good kid, broad chest on him

 

[Joffaboy]

So can you campaigners stop whinging now?

Get around the kids and back them in.

Midfielders are overrated anyway

 

[saintbill]

Well looks like another 2-3 years of Clark, Jones and old man McCrae running through the midfield.

Tauru looks like a gun but paired with another defender?

All the talk of mids, mids, mids.

Have absolutely no ball winning prospects. We are actively trying to build an unbalanced list.

Allen, Reid, nah doesn't matter. Winning a clearance is overrated I guess.

 

[SaintersUnite]

Surely we try and trade back in to the teens now.

Baby we’re back, I love it .

 

[sauce_head]

Not sure why we didn’t make Essendon pay.

I’m very happy for these kids and I already love them. But I can’t help but feel this deep deep midfield draft that would instantly fix our deep deep midfield woes, is a crock of sh1t.

 

[Banger9798]

Thommo hasn't aged a day

He looks great

 

[King_Steele]

Come on lads we’ve gotta back in Travalgia.

He’s one of us now. Welcome mate

 

[beside the seaside]

No one is bashing Travaglia.

Posting "vomit" after we pick him could be taken the wrong way I reckon.

 

[sufficientintent]

The only thing I don’t like about Tauru is that he associates with blokes who wear black suit shirts with white floral ties

Absolutely criminal young man

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

I know we'll never win a centre clearance....BUT.....they'll never get it past our half back line

We are apparently building the great wall of St Kilda.

 

[Dr Spaceman]

Battle who?

 

[SaintsSeptember]

Pou and Tauru's combined Ego can play midfield for us.

 

[gubby88]

I was a deleted post cause I quoted one, oops.

yeah..how dare we miss out in players at the top of the draft because we won games

bastards...

Can’t wait to revisit this thread in the years to come

 

[Hayes4PM]

Just turned 18 and towered over Thommo there on the stage, yet can still fly clunk them. Gonna be a star.
