Fills a massive need and will be a good leader as well to help out the younger players.

Best Wishes to Saints with the inclusion of Jack.
Always a club favourite, hoping he has 2 or 3 good years left.
Best Wishes

I know so little about this time except that Carlton were apparently cheering on our demise.He's still got a lot to offer and will be a very handy player for you. Hopefully Ross has a role in mind for him that will rejuvenate his career. I don't think he has declined significantly, I just don't think he suited the gameplan Bevo was trying to implement.
Very happy with the acquisition of Mukraié. He walks into the club and is instantly a starting onballer. With a good pre season and a shot of confidence he could even be our best mid if Steele doesn't regain his top form, though I suspect Maykrea will help elevate Steele if anything.
Our next Norm Smith Medalist.
Sad to see him go, but it's best for both parties. I actually don't think he is past his best at all, to be honest. He just didn't match the style we wanted to go with. I feel like the real catalyst for the role change and reduced midfield time for him was the review after the 2022 season, when we implemented a new game plan which saw Adam Treloar essentially play the midfield role from 2023 onwards as he had the pace. In the 2022 season he still averaged: 31 disposals, 4 clearances and 5 inside 50s per game.
Then this year, the 3 VFL games he was played in his best position, he averaged (yes, different level and intensity): 42 disposals (at 80% efficiency), 14 clearances and 6 tackles. I don't know your club and it's players well enough to make stupid statements like him winning a best and fairest or what ever, but I feel like injury permitting (another + is that he just doesn't get injured), he will finish in your top 10.
