[Saintos The ITK]

So west coast supposedly had A grade talent ringing up asking them to get them there so they could play with Harley.
What a load of shit.

 

[TheNewEnsign]

Haynes will be going there

Ah yeah right, actually a Carlton supporting friend (it's possible to have them) did tell me that on the weekend and it's just been reported on AFL website. Thanks.

He'll (Haynes) be almost 33 at the start of the H&A season, jeez they'd be really banking on getting things done next year with their list. Not an 'old' list by any means but still....

Stocker won’t ever become a good AFL mid, this I’m sure of.

Kennedy is decent, but a surplus to our needs

Couple of nice handballs did Stocker have in the last quarter against the wavy blues, just don't put him in the backline, things would of been different. Delist Stocker for FS, I don't care.

 

[CaptainRisky]

Can’t see us having any interest in Kennedy with McRae alreading committing to us.

There needs to be some room in that midfield for the young players coming through.

Yep i agree , one mature mid is enough unless you got LDU which is never ever happening

 

[Joffaboy]

Anytime his form has been good, his body has let him down-soft tissues. If he can have a couple of healthy years, he gives us a point of difference in our midfield with his strong tackling & explosive run.

No coincidence our midfield looked much sharper when Jones, Clark and Dow all got good blocks of games. Match fitness, touch, and playing together takes time.

Wilkie has a job too. Thanks for your service : /

I remember hearing it's a logistics side gig they started up maybe last year?

Does he come with his own wheel chair

 

[bird_man]

For years they have been massive underperformers- they've been recognised as having one of the best 'on paper' best 22 in the comp- but failing to contend.
Plus- it isn't a rule that cast offs from flag winning sides are guaranteed to be any better than spoon winning castoffs etc.

For instance- we got wood from lolnorf and crouch after the crows won the spoon.



There still would be.
How many kids did we play this year?
A: boatloads.

Very few through the midfield for any decent amount of time though.

Windy and then Pou early and late in the year

That was before McRae was on the list let alone trying to fit Kennedy in there too.

Can’t see it happening.

 

[Saintscomemarchingin]

Phillipou's the new Steele???, yeah maybe need one more, LDU or Lalor? Owens

 

[The Punter]

Yeah so, Stewart & Wilkie AA's, maybe Henry too. My point was, no too De Koning.

And Jack Sinclair, twice

 

[Saintscomemarchingin]

Smaller backman, not referring to those

SDK played with good defenders in Geelong. If he were to play at St Kilda, he would as well.

I've made my point.

[Fehring]

The way we're wetting ourselves over any player who shows us any love at all is understandable but a wee bit too sad and desperate for comfort.

And this Sam DeKoning rumour, is there anything at all there? Is he gettable and would he come over to us?

Urgh. Geelong is the new Essendon when it comes to trades. They'd ask for 3 top ten picks, Max King and Naz.

 

[austinnn]

Going through Satan's Bins AND Big Footy Saints board.

Hey Cleary, eat a whole bagful. What more can one say about a bloke who aspires to be Damien Barrett? Get your scoops somewhere else, ya dipstick.

 

[Tommy Wigs]

Too fast for my liking…

Ha ha they sure will walk it out the front of stoppages.

 

[Tommy Wigs]

He’s a very good kick.

I disagree. He can certainly hit some shorter targets, but he can be pretty floaty and - not really his technique as such - very sideways. He butchered it in the final.

 

[Tommy Wigs]

I know everyone thinks I am a Clark fanboi, but can see the MacRae move as being nothing but beneficial for him as well.
He gets fair criticism for his lack of ToG and hopefully he gets a full preseason.
With MacRae, Steele and Clark as the inside mids, Dow, Pou, Windy, Jones, Garcia, Wilson and the two dp's, a fit midfield is looking, while not top 4 material, certainly a lot better than this year.

Thank God we didn't try to top up with Houston or Merrett or some other messiah that would take all our draft capital.
So MacRae ( so far)
Pick 7
Pick 8 (hopefully)
Peckett
Cole
The other NGA
Windy, Henry, Max all back.

Must be springtime, because it is time to hope once again.

It certainly is not a top 4 midfield! I would say 90% of analysts and fans would say it’s probably on the edge of the bottom 4. Richmond, WC, mayyybe Adelaide. Struggling to think of more.

 

[SaintsSeptember]

We have some pretty good defenders too.

Not so many that tall.

We might be hoping for just a little improvement from the likes of Pou, Garcia , Windhager.
I could be wrong but i might consider that most players haven't played their best footy in their first few years.
( mild condescending sarcasm ).

 

[Banger9798]

Very happy with McCrae nomination.
Accumulates and distributes at the coal face. Will be a very good foil for Steele. Windy, Garcia and Pou will learn alot from the triple AA. Let alone picks #7 and #8.
Very savvy work...we have $ to spare and effectively bring in a playing - coach for the developing midfielders.
Don't tamper with those first two picks Saints.

 

[Nutsngum]

Isnt this just his and Wilkie's business they've started together?
