We get some new Sainters today.
Whoever it turns out to be, we'll get around them as soon as their name is called and they pull on the guernsey.
I don't care what the other clubs do, I only care about our boys.
If that's Trav and The Viking, so be it, that's awesome.
Go Sainters!

 

[11men1cup]

Idk why you guys are all upset that we won't draft a midfielder.

We have Elwood "Norm" Peckett coming through

He'll be the best of the lot.

Absolutely, now piss off back to your rancid board and tell all your whiney cuck mates, and have a circle jerk.
Oh happy draft day.

At 70 years old, it’s goes where she goes

 

[St Kilda Death]

It’s 2024.
Flankers are midfielders that start outside the circle at centre bounce.

Only 3 players can start centre bounce:
Steele, macrae…
Clark, Windgager, dow, Garcia, Jones, Carrol all fighting off Philipou for 3rd spot.

Sinclair, stocker and Wanganeen all capable of a run through.

Trav and Allan both have a good contested game. Both would be great additions to the team and add to our clearance game at stoppages if not centre bounce.

Happy melt day, just warming up. Wait until we have Draper on the board and we select Travaglia

So instead of Travaglia…

 

[True Believer]

Tauru can play anywhere.

North Melbourne??

 

[Leap of Faith]

Zero chance the saints would do that. Would need to be a future first in it. We are in a very good spot

Even with a F1. I wouldn't do that.

 

[stavro#4]

We “lost” crouch?

 

[#1_pigeonracer]

Reid and Tauru. Why isn't it more obvious?

 

[_Maximus_12]

I think we will trade 8, and buy another pick using next years F1.

Fremantle look the most likely given the amount of young talent they’ve bought in over the last 5 years and their appetite to trade for Chad Warner

Great summation…only thing I differ on is Travaglia’s kicking, he went at 82.5% kicking efficiency for Vic Country this year!
Last year won the B & F for Bendigo Pioneers as an under ager with Harley Reid playing for them!!
Kids a gun & has a lot of clubs that like him.
He may start off as a half back but when he puts on more size will be a terrific inside/outside mid.

Mate I am just an amateur going off highlights here, so I will 100% defer to those that know more.

But when Stav posted a bunch of Trav videos a few pages back that solidified my thoughts. Check out his game vs SA. Handballing is genuinely elite (especially at speed), and maybe gives me some hope he could be a mid (maybe). I understand what people see, and why he will be picked inside the top 15.

But watch that 5 minutes of kicking. A lot of it with time and space off half back (and not at the coalface). That's got me nervous

He looks great in space. He looks great as an intercept back.

His kicking wasn’t great and a lot of his midfield stuff was very rushed.

Moves around like a leopard however.

 

[stavro#4]

F1+32 for Freos 14?

 

[Holy Hunter Clark]

Is he?

Looks like all of Norths supporters have come onto our board now.

Is it true that in 2026 you're moving to PNG and playing games out of Hong Kong?

Macrae?

True, but he is not our long term future and wouldnt it be great to have new midfielders learning from him.

 

[Jay Beast]

Who’s bringing the lube?

 

[Hayes4PM]

I still want my Smillie, Reid, Shanahan combo. Richmond surely pick Bo Allan over Smillie? SURELY?

 

[BucketsandBanger]

Time to stop being sad sacks and get excited everyone. I can see Richmond taking Smilie over Tauru as one of the all time draft **** ups, Tambling over Buddy style. Lord knows we are due!

 

[TheJackal]

F1+32 for Freos 14?

Doesn't help their attempt to get into the top 10 though.

Wasn't there a trade being discussed between GWS, us and Freo? What would be the outcome of that?

 

[beside the seaside]

Yep, if we get him hopefully a few look back at passing as a huge error. A la Pou.

Won't be surprised if Richmond take Tauru at 6.

And don't call me Shirley.

Antarctica, I heard.

Would we prefer Smillie or Tauru?

 

[Sully111]

I think today will go splendidly.
