7 interstate vs 4 is a bloody travesty. Not to mention the games at the G.
Really hope the club puts in a protest to the AFL. Not that it’ll propabably do any good.
Shame is, we actually play OK at the G generally.
AFL manipulate the comp whenever they want.
James Frawley should never have been a pick 3 compensation for the Dees.
Just like they manipulate the NGA picks.
Glad to hear Andrew Bassett is making a stink about the Northern academies, F/S picks etc. They’ve been complete freebies to certain clubs.
Perfectly clear the AFL don’t give two sh*ts about a minnow club like the
Saints. We’re there to make up the up the numbers.
Really hope the club has some balls and challenges them on that.
Playing the Cats (away), GWS (away) and Pies in the first five games - tough, but we have to deal with...
The Pou’s having some second year Blues. It’s ok.
Definitely does need to get his confidence up again for a little while at Sandy though.
He’s got the character. He’ll cope and come back more determined than ever.
I think it’s too early to tell.
We’ve in the middle of the toughest third of our “fix”ture and playing severely undermanned. Unbelievable that we travel 3 out of 4 weeks.
Jury’s still out imo.
Not sure we’ve got the right to protest. We’re currently sitting second (or were till Thursday night) for Frees For vs Frees against.
Maybe last game was the beginning of them adjusting to our usual place on that table. 🤣
Would be interesting.
Is Collard OK?
Think they bring in 3 players who’ve never played for us, bar a one quarter sub, and Hayes who has hasn’t played for well over a year - all at once?
Doubtful for me.
He’s a third forward who is generally a pretty reliable kick and a decent pack mark who could be used for the outlet kicks on the wing, like King is also doing.
I’m just a fan with very little idea about tactics etc, but it seems to me you play a player in his best position.
I can see he has...
Remember how nuts we all used to go when they kept playing Battle on the wing and we all called for him to be settled forward or back?
Did it with Acres too.
Same thing happening here with Sharman. Is it bc we need cover for injuries? Possibly. We’ll see when we get players back.
And with Owens...
As you said in the next few weeks …
But until then.
Pretty sure he will get a run in the twos if nothing else to
Regain his confidence. He’s experiencing some second year blues imo.
toxic used to post here fairly regularly. Was always very measured and happy to have a good discussion.
TBH I can’t see anything he posted in his first post that could be considered offensive. We’ve never been overly precious on here with visitors who post respectfully.
