Go out in the backyard and kick the fence mate.

You are the classic negative supporter who is never happy no matter what the club does.

After you kick the fence log out have a bex and go to bed.

Have you ever read anything else I've ever posted? Get lost.

It would be an interesting comparison in a few years - safe selections VS X factors

Most sides have both. The hard part of drafting is finding match-winners. The Saints don't have many, and so need to roll the dice of high-risk, high-reward types.

I think we're in a different position. We have match-winners on every line. We're now drafting to fill gaps and roles.

YES!
Re Lemmey...

 

[smashbox gill]

Lemmey Bang! Love thst

 

[V23]

Lemmey

 

[Stamos]

There's the risky pick

 

[4flagsin5yrs]

Lemmey!

 

[LemmingMaster]

Okay, acceptable, height.

 

[swuzzlebubble]

If we don't pick a KPD I'd be worried, but the melts will be worth it.

We won't. Never do.

 

[Arr0w]

Lemmey, huge risk reward. Gets his off field sorted, is a 1st round talent

 

[JuddgementDay]

Finally a tall!

 

[Wickzki]

Go Motorhead

 

[AB_Blue]

Go back 12 months and Lemmey was in the conversation for the first overall pick.

I can't believe he slid this far.

Welcome him here:

Past - 31. Harry Lemmey - delisted 28/8

Nice pick! Can he play down back?

 

[Revenant1995]

Finally a tall!

And fast bowler too...

 

[El Topo]

Seems like we're overcompensating for a lack of run but that's only one of a few deficiencies - where's the strategy?

Edit: lol, timing

 

[Mondyboy]

Nice pick! Can he play down back?

Played down back in SANFL.

I’m not a draft watcher but based on the general consensus here I feel like most would be stoked if we had of had the saints draft. Philipou, Hotton, Van Es, Keller

Except the poor buggers have to play for that mob.

Anything concerning re off field or just needs to “switch on”?

 

[BlueSuede]

Love it! I'm guessing that if he's slipped this far, there are a few issues, but seems to have enough assets to come onto the list as a depth/development tall. Even if he can come (in time) to fill the type of role Casboult used to occupy, that is a good addition to the list

 

[Coona Blues]

Well, I wanted a key forward. A little bit of ruck, and played in defence in SA’s final game (half).

Some off field knocks, but definitely was in the discussion for pick 1 in pre season.

An article on Lemmey including some quotes from the man himself:

Who are the match winning small forwards? Who are the match winning outside mids? Who are the match winning burst mids? Who are the match winning mid-forwards?

I have high hopes for Kemp, Cuningham and Motlop, but there's an issue there, and the answers to questions I didn't ask involve a lot of players who are nearing 30 and need succession plans for.
