are you referring to me? or someone else?

I’m referring to anyone who said that. If that includes you then yes.

Sorry to intrude, but wasn't it the scuttlebut on here after end of last season that we were going to have a number of young players including Gresh and Billings, leave if Richo wasn"t sacked?
Don't know if that was from you, more Morrabbin Ghost and others I remember

 

[Impatient Saint]

I have not see a better prospect at our club since Riewoldt.

Have seen him live 3 times and TV once.

I reckon he would have taken Werribee apart if not injured, have never seen a forward make contested marks look so easy.

I like to think I am not one to overhype so take it FWIW.

Yeah understood - I just hopes his body holds up? A kid at that height and that lacking in leg strength is another knee reco x ? waiting to happen! They are not much chop if they cant stay fit?

Obviously not because he knee was really given heaps yesterday and it seems he is only missing a week.

Needs some more strength. Brown bodied Bing off the ball easily, will happen to Ming.

His advantage his huge vertical leap. Unless the backs smash his body he wont get beaten.

The back from Werribee did that and 999 times out of a 1000 Ming would have just fallen over.
The jarred knee was the one time a player lands funny. Just bad luck.

But I agree, give him a taste this year, another pre season on the weights and core work and 2020 he will be hot.

PS Opposition fans will scream blue murder the frees he will get. I dont think there is anyone in the league that can outreach him.

On the lead he will need to be blocked. Will be impossible to stop on the lead.

And as someone posted, yesterday may be a blessing in disguise. He will now have confidence in the integrity of the graft. That landing and twisting could so easily have been much worse. Winx even said as much, he now knows it will withstand the rigours of the game. That inner confidence can't be underestimated

Pretty nerve racking way to find out though.

I expect him to be worked over physically just like Roo was.

 

[VDS66]

Is this the trade thread?

Yes we are trading hindsight...

Remember that WC gronk who ran through an 18 y.o Kosi and Roo?, real hero [emoji849][emoji849][emoji849]

Coniglio has been linked to Hawks and Carlton. No mention of St Kilda.

About 13 years ago, Stevie Lawrence was installing a shower screen for me and said that playing Roo at CHF would destroy his body from all the attention.

Hopefully this time we have two decent talls neXt to Max that are good enough to keep defenders accountable away from him.

Smoke and mirrors...

 

[Diehard Saint]

Newnes should go IMO. If we only get a late 2nd as FA compo then that's fine by me. Jimmy is tradeable for the right price but would rather keep him and offload Dmac. I'd like to see Jweb, Coff and Whitey teamed up in a post Gears, Dmac, Brownie era.

DMac just signed a three year contract. Doubt he’s going anywhere.

 

[Diehard Saint]

re-write history? it was well known at the time. hence why he needed freo to give him such a large amount of money upfront.

nothing stopped ross from being more transparent in his movements. rather than letting st kilda believe they had him secured and even booked the press conference for it.

All behind his managers back too if I recall.
A lot like Brad Scott this year.

 

[bird_man]

That’s the life of being a nobody club.

Well we have been linked to just about every player coming out of contract over the last two year. Either he told us to GAGF or we are doing our business a bit quieter this time around.

I'd be surprised if we didn't at least wave a decent carrot in front of him especially with Gubby on board. Unfortunately it's going to be bloody hard to entice any player to leave a strong performing side to come to a side that hasn't played finals for some time.

 

[Pardon me]

I’m more confident with Gubby on board of landing a big fish.
If not then so be it but he has the body of work behind him that I’m not dreading trade period this year

 

[Diehard Saint]

Pretty nerve racking way to find out though.

And not just for him!

 

[Diehard Saint]

You mean like Carlton?
Pretty sure Hawks are on the slide as well.

Yes like Carlton, I doubt he goes there.

Riewoldt had Hamill and Gehrig at the start. Pretty good if you ask me.

 

[bird_man]

How about that for timing!!

Up to $1.4 mil offer from St Kilda

Wow why on heavens earth do you give a below average player lIke Mckenzie 3 years - very lucky boy!
