    Ins and outs for the Saints

    Re: ins and outs for the saint Watching the Willi game, at half time Tommy hasn't been great, looks pretty rusty. I think the selectors will go with Welsh as the 3 mid sized defender. Pity as an inform Williams would've been handy to take the resting ruckman or as a back up for Lake or...

    Ins and outs for the Saints

    Re: ins and outs for the saint If Williams plays well for Willi today and the selection committee have confidence in him I can see him coming in. Out: Welsh In: Williams Most likely unchanged.

    What would you do if we won the flag?

    I would scour the internet to find the cheapest Rolls Royce available, purchase it, then crash it into a swimming pool somewhere near Whitten Oval!

    Post-Hawthorn Win; Merged Threads.

    Re: does lloyd have grounds for legal action Don't think Lloyd would bother with a lawsuit, but I find it amazing that a Hawthorn player would dare mention the word sniper out loud given they have a Jordan Lewis is their team, the man who's tried to forge a reputation as a hard man built purely...

    Picture 50, anyone we know?

    Anyone who works in the CBD and gets off at Flagstaff station will know him as well, he sells the big issue in the mornings chanting "big issue" then makes up rhymes about the various people he sees going past. He is a Melbourne landmark and famous in the city.

    If Chris Grant arrived in 2009.

    Goes back to Old Trinity in the Amateurs, plays 2 years of injury free football at CHF and is an average player even at that level. Another wasted top 5 selection.

    Gone

    It's true we could have, but on each occasion we were between 37 and 47 points down at one point. We have to ask ourselves why this continues to happen. Clearly we are good enough to get back into the game and even back into the lead, but what is wrong with this group mentally that they keep...

    Eade Puts Pen To Paper

    I have to agree with you. If you look at it subjectively it's hard to argue with. We are basically the same team as last year with a couple of additions (Harbrow in defence, Ward getting more game time etc) and a slight tweak of our defensive structure by implementing a rolling zone defence...

    Brown and Bradshaw

    We don't need to worry about those two, KPF's don't win games, defence and midfield pressure do. That's what we get told on this board every week.

    Only 1 decent tall

    IMO his major weakness was his obsession with picking really really skinny guy as KP players. Have a look at our list, Grant, Everitt, Boumann, Wight, Tiller, all of them are stick thin. I don't Cordy obviously.

    Williams Experiment Failing

    I agree it does, but it's fair to say Kennedy's good has been substantially better, and more often. I'm not necessarily having a dig at Williams directly, I just think as a club we don't demand enough from young players early enough. We just fall back on the "well he's young line". Chris...

    Williams Experiment Failing

    You realise the guy Williams played on yesterday is 21 (Williams is 23) and has played only a couple more games than him due to injuries. I would say that is what developing young talent looks like.

    Changes vs Brisbane

    No changes necessary, just keep rolling along and hope if we get some luck and things go our way we can pinch a premiership in September, basically what we've been saying for the past 50 years.

    Is it time ?

    Ok, first 10 round are good and last 10 are poor. 2007, 2008, and now 2009. Either way you want to look at it, when the cruicial time of the year comes around we are routinely playing our worst. Welsh's returns against top 4 sides this year are; St Kilda- 0 Geelong- 0 Collingwood- 0...

    What can you say?

    Agreed. Brilliant recruiter of midfielders, terrible recruiter of talls, overall an average recruiter.
