    Discussion 2023 General AFL Discussion

    Agree man, so difficult to get a gauge on some of our older players, as has been discussed on here before. Is it development (coaching) or bad recruiting or as is likely, a horrific combination of both those things? I feel there’s a spotlight on: Billings/Membery/Howard/Gresham/Hunter/Battle...

    List Mgmt. 2023 Trade Thread - Part I

    Hey fellow Saints supporter, not wanting to have an argument or start one, but this is not cool. It is bull-jive. George is a dedicated Saints fan and has every right to express an opinion, critical or confident, on a forum he moderates. The fact he moderates a STKFC forum tells you he is...

    List Mgmt. 2023 Trade Thread - Part I

    Agree man, loser mentality, but but but but every year... Don’t post here very often but wanted to say I can see the myriad points of view in this latest discussion but I have to say my excitement of Ross and the old boys assembling at the bottom of Everest is starting to be tempered by this...

    Toast Ross Lyon returns to St.Kilda #UnfinishedBusiness

    TL, DR: I and my extended Saints loving family, feel hope and passion again. As others have mentioned, or expressed similar sentiments, my interest in STKFC and the upcoming years was dwindling. A few years of bottoming out at least meant some draft interest, but the middling, muddling mess we...

    Toast Ross Lyon returns to St.Kilda #UnfinishedBusiness

    Brilliant...the moment our next premiership was born!

    Toast Ross Lyon returns to St.Kilda #UnfinishedBusiness

    All good man, hope you are well. He was as uncompromising as he expects his players to be, strong at the context! Richo would have loved him! Always put his head in the hole. Roys fans used to love him.

    Toast Ross Lyon returns to St.Kilda #UnfinishedBusiness

    Hey man, I watched him play a great deal as my best mate growing up was a Fitzroy fan. Lyon was tough, could play back or forward but he was also skillful. Very good by foot. Represented Victoria a few times if memory serves.

    Prediction St.Kilda New Coach 2023?

    Hello my friend, hope you are well. I agree with you but remember that Walsh did the review of Carlton and Silvagni did not survive that—though perhaps my memory fails and happy to be corrected if I got the dates wrong. I like the GWS list manager just can't remember his name and Cripps...

    Discussion NFL Discussion

    Congrats man, great start. Well drilled team by what I saw today. I knew Dennis Allen would not be the right coach for NOLA and it is turning out that way though I concede injuries are a thing. Good luck for the rest of the season.

    List Mgmt. 2022 Draft Thread - Part I

    Thank you for posting man this as I was keen to see it. Very surprised no Tsatas! Probably my favoured 'wants' —Phillipou, Hewett and Humphrey didn't make it. I must not have been watching closely enough. @Gringo—opinion?

    List Mgmt. 2022 Trade Thread - Part I

    Agree man, these are the in built mechanisms available to us. Use your draft picks. If you can attract free agents who make you better then do it as the cap has to be spent anyway. We cut a lot of salaries last year. Also, and maybe I have this wrong, if the soft cap on coaching is taxed at ten...

    Toast Thanks Paddy!

    Absolutely devastated I must admit. Hoped we’d get another year from him even if he only played 10-12 games. I had hoped that we’d increase our Indigenous playing group in the drafts and now with the elder Paddy gone and rumours suggesting Hill and Nas might ask for trades it leaves us lacking...

    Coach 2022 Coaching

    Hey brother, I agree. I can’t say I have ever felt this disconsolate about my STKFC. And I am a 50 yo supporter (and now former member) so I have seen some dark times—wooden spoons, diabolical trades and recruiting ( Russell Green, McCartin, for eg) and potential mergers etc. I think that is...

    Coach 2022 Coaching

    I don't feel you are arguing at all, those are very fair points. I will have to take your word on the EPL and other leagues as I am just a watcher of Liverpool and don't watch other teams a great deal. Happy to admit i am naive. In regard to the AFL, it seems to me that teams like Richmond...

    Coach 2022 Coaching

    Man, I can completely see this point of view and though it is not my point of view I respect it. I hear what you speak. I think gameplan can cover talent and if effort isn't a consistent given then something has gone wrong with recruiting and development. So, before a game begins you are...
