Fiora dumped

I say, good on ya Fiora for having a crack. have a good retirment from football, at the same time. Good on ya Saints for making these cutting decisions. We dont need those thin soft bodies. We need strong fast big men, who go hard. Theres still X, but we'll see if he can stay injury free. I highly doubt it though.
 
To be completely honest I am not happy with this news.

Yes Fiora had an average '08, but I believe in '09 he is capable, if injury free and with a good preseason, of easily being in our best 22.

People criticise his attack on the ball but the guy is an outside midfielder, he is there to carry and deliver the ball, something that when in form he can do very well.

In my opinion next year when (and if) we are surging towards finals having Fiora on our list, (even if it is as only a depth player to cover injuries), will be much more valueable than a sixth or seventh round selection in this years national draft.

As much as people on here use him as a whipping boy, the guy has proven over the years that when in form he is a great at breaking the lines and kicking long.

In Form Fiora in '09 > Sixth/Seventh Round National Draft Selection


Are you serious????? An in form Fiora? Even when in form he was only a fringe player. He's had more than enough chances and failed to take them. Let's give #17 to someone who is prepared to put their body on the line.
 
Did Stevie Powell give number 17 over to Fiora after he retired lol.

what different players

Well you can't say he wasn't prepared to put his body on the line, just that he didn't do it as often as anyone would like or bust his gut to use what abilities he had consistently where he wasn't then an integral part of any make up. At the same time I agree that since he did play with the Saints he should have our respect as a player of the club, but that it was also the right move by the club to make since we just had too many fringe players or players not committed enough who couldn't take that next step.

seems strange to get rid of both birss and fiora. You'd think it would be one or the other.

we must be damned certain of getting cousins i reckon.

yes that's right.
