we'd win the flag every year

It would be like the EPL where one of 4'teams win it every year.

 

[sabso]

Only the northern academy part of it. What are you gonna do. Just get on with it.

Didn’t properly read the part about the wealthier clubs, misread as poorer clubs and thought he was going on a bit of a self own there.

Agreed it’s biased towards qld/nsw teams for obvious reasons, it’s biased towards pies because toothless bogans have more kids, boners due to being shit/the north mafia, geelong because they’re geelong. Not all wealthier/poorer clubs.

What’s the betting the afl would set us up as the Tottenham in that bunch

Isn’t ROCO still on radio at times ? Extraordinary he gets sucked in by Joe Public so easily, and when he does makes it crystal clear he’s seething. You’re a journo ROCO, come up with something witty FFS. Dare I say perhaps too many cans in for something mildly intelligent in reply.

St kilda using their BnF to have a whinge

They got Mitch Owen’s and Windhager as Academy selections. They got an end of first for the spud Gresham.

Here is why the Saints are mired in mediocrity - their top-45 picks each year from 2012-2020 … players who should be peaking at 22yo to 30yo:

2012: Wright (pick-24) White (25). Murdoch (40). Saunders (43). All spuds

2013: Billings (3). Dunstan (18). Acres (19). 2 x spuds and Acres at his third club.

2014: McCartin (1). Goddard (21). McKenzie (22). Lonie (41). All spuds

2015: Gresham (18). White (40). Gresham ok but not great. White a spud.

2016; Long (25). Battle (39). Both now gone from the club.

2017: Clark (7). Coffield (8). Clavarino (35). Clark ok but not for a pick-7. Others spuds.

2018: king (4). Bytel (41). King soft but ok. Bytel a spud now at Magpies

2019: no top-45 picks

2020: Allison (26). Highmore (45). Both spuds

So 20 x top-45 picks. Only 2 x players of half decent quality remain on their list: King and Clark.

In that same period they’ve also traded out
loads of picks for the likes of Brad Hill, Hannebery, Howard, Ryder, Crouch, Butler and more.

Saints are crap because their drafting and list management from 2012-2020 was deplorable beyond comprehension.

They seem to have been better in recent years with Owens, Windhager (both academy selections), Phillipou, Milera, Wilson … but that 2012-2020 period was as bad as drafting can be.

Let’s put it this way… here are our successful top-45 picks from 2005-2013 (4 years before our first flag):

Riewoldt, Edwards, Cotchin, Rance, Vickery (got us Bolton), Dusty, Astbury, B Ellis, Vlastuin, McIntosh,.

The Saints only have themselves to blame.

Roy Morgan on the white powder.

Didn't I tell you #weareeveryonesgrandfinal?

CFL probably rang all the oppo clubs to do this so they could make yet another rule change against Richmond.

All the Advance Richmond Fair do is give,give,give.

But now oppos want to take,take,take.

I'm watching you CFL.

They could of had the Bont , Petracca, Naughtan
Dangerfield instead chose other lemons
Their drafting has been diabolical, only recently like you said it's been good

 

[captain blood 17]

He really is a nutter hey

There’s definitely some childhood trauma he hasn’t dealt with floating around there

His brother was a guitarist in Paul Kellys band in the 80’s. Played on some classics. He died of a heroin od.

A recruiter who had nothing to do with recruiting players. Sounds legit.

The Saints pres sums up society atm.
The more you sook the more you get.
Maybe look in the mirror?

What’s the betting the afl would set us up as the Tottenham in that bunch

As a Tottenham fan, that hits a sore spot. F me. One of the richest clubs in the world, and they mostly try to make Europe each year and not win anything. Go Ange!
