Hes had a throat injury since round 10, which left him struggling to breath

It's been a blessing that he hasn't had to sing the team song a lot since then.

Adam Treloar left out of Dogs team after 40 touches last week. OOC and I know he used to live in Bayside when he was at the Pies (Not sure if he still does or not). Only played 4 AFL games this year. Worth a look or is his body too cooked ??? Would be handy type for us for a year or two if his body can manage

I'm going to pretend I didn't read that

 

[seasonedsainter]

We look a small forward or two short and he's a genuine match winner. His forte is turning nothing into something. Crap entries end up being goals. I think as far as a missing pieces he makes sense.

To me the tall back stocks, tall forward back-up and small forwards are all critically low. Caminiti could go back to a tall forward role if we can replace him with a tall back. Not sure Aleer is the answer but we are going to have to hope he's got a lot of improvement left in him.

Collard is still a couple of seasons off consistently owning a spot. Ryan bridges the gap.

Yes agree with this. They're targetting weak spots on the list and it's clear in my mind Lyon and AB want a Flag. I'm 50 pages behind in this thread but the Ryan trade to me makes sense.

 

[Sainter88]

Imagine if Nas had set this after one of our games. They would have needed defibrillators for all of the campaigners in this thread.

Actually miss those days, wish we could go back to stressing and doing the liquid sit down because of the unknown

I will laugh all day at these campaigners not seeing the forest for the trees

Respect to TDK looks like he's handling it a lot better than.... for the sake of privacy Josh B. No that's too obvious, J. Battle.

Ready for some good ol’ footy tribalism?well they started it. Carlton fans love to use the ‘aints’ like they ain’t been relevant since they couldn’t cheat anymore.

Unless we’re talking about their president cheating on his wife with the head of their sponsor (twitter dick pick anyone? I was hacked!)

Like they’ve had any success since equalisation, like they don’t get preferential treatment from the afl to try and make them good again (ridiculously generous fixturing, and yet somehow, still lets daddy down?)

nobody likes Collingwood, but nobody respects Carlton, the most entitled fan base, based on false flags of brown paper bags. Every club has abusive fans, but some clubs are more abusive than others…

I hope TDK has a blinder with the saints, really enjoyed his speech.

 

[seasonedsainter]

Got plenty of mids, would love him. Hope it happens and when you want him back in two years will cost you two frdp. .
We will get the best out of TDK, has wallowed at a turgid failure of a club irrelevant for three decades, never to rise again.
Enjoy mediocrity. What is it 5 spoons since 2000

TBH I've been mediocre on the TDK move, But now that NAS has signed, Wow-wee destination Club and **** THE REST BACK THEM IN WE'RE GETTING SET BABY

So happy with this last month and my goodness, just a wee bit of anticipation for next year

NAS said it

SOMETHING SPECIAL

 

[seasonedsainter]

Also Tooooorooo looks like an absolute gem. Kid will fly the flag till the end of times, just what we needed. **** you Battle.

 

[BrutThough]

Nas staying. TDK telling his Carlton teammates goodbye.

We've won twice this week.

 

[Leap of Faith]

Haha Carlton, not only lose TDK, their compo pick goes after our frdp
Absolute non entity of a club, how many wooden spoons this century? Tanked for Kruezer, sold their soul for Judd, destroyed a decent list with abysmal list management.
Have been losers since they couldn't cheat and still want to do it the easy way.
Those quotes with them crying over FS is manna from heaven
Hope the filthy scum are down for another 2 decades.

In a nutshell. F*** Carlton and all that they are.

And we still have a first round pick.

 

[Leap of Faith]

Essendon fc club have kinda taken over for me, in my later years
It was the drug thing l think tipped it in their favour.

On a par really. Can't forget though their vote to wind us up. Meanwhile they were sustained by paper bags from the big end of town. More than a decade of consecutive years presidency by convicted corporate criminals. Long may they suffer.

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Entitled Carlton fans chucking tantys will never get old.

That club has yet to adapt to modern afl every year since 2005.

That contract is probably worth around 2 Mil now. Which is what Nas is getting. It makes sense but 800 is insane money in the 90s

I bought my first house in about 1997 for $160,000. $800k back then was set you up for life money.

 

[gringo2011]

Hard for me to get too excited for TDK the way he played out the second half of the year. He has shown sprinkles of elite talent ove the last few years but is yet to put a quality season together.

I suppose we just need to hope that it all clicks and he becomes the player that he has been hyped up to be. I think it's unlikely though.

Hate to say this because I love Marshall, but for this to be a win for the Saints we need to trade him and get a really good pick. TDK and two high first rounders helps set us up for the future.

Yeah, I can't see any benefit in two very similar rucks in one side. Marshall is a match winner and underrated as a match saver. TDK is going to have to step up to a baseline of consistency just to make it seamless. He's generally having around 6 elite games a year and probably an equal number of poor games. Marshall probably doesn't have the absolute eye catching games but he rarely has a bad one.

I hope we develop Dodson and Keeler as ruck forwards because we need back up for King and ideally a spot for Dodson to scare off raiders.

Hes had a throat injury since round 10, which left him struggling to breath

Not sure he'd be playing if he trachea was severely damaged. It wouldn't be safe if he was suffering from seriously restricted breathing. Actually a pretty tricky operation to fix it. You need to use cartilage from elsewhere to prop it open. Severe damage can be permanent.

Is his throat better now? He didn't do much last night....

Herald Sun:

"He was serviceable in his 100th game, collecting 15 disposals, 16 hit-outs, four clearances and five marks. His last act as a Blue was missing an easy set shot for goal from 25m out in the final 30 seconds of the game."

 

[Lightsxo]

2x Brownlow
2x Coleman
1x coleman
1x MVP

All to finish one spot about St Kilda.

Can’t make it up.

Just going by what John Ralph said

Gee, you got a bargain for Toorak with that price!

 

[NAS THE GOAT]

Just going by what John Ralph said

I find it funny the Blues slogan on the wall behind TDK saying “All the best” Says:

STRONGER TOGETHER

He has a point though, yes?

Nas was rated 7th best player in the AFL on the latest afl.com.au monthly rankings. He'll make AA and he'll win the Saints B&F in a landslide.

He's the player Saints fans have been dreaming of for the past decade.

But TDK hasn't done anything. Let's just be honest about that. He's a 26 year old who had a few good games last year, and a few good games early this year.

We're all hoping he'll become a consistent top ruck. But it hasn't happened yet.

Let's just be humble enough to admit we're hoping, but right now on paper he's massively overpaid the moment he signs on the bottom line. Until he proves otherwise.
