Opinion Have St Kilda been overhyped this year?

[Rod Stroker]

10 players is still a significant amount and I would imagine the likes of Parker, Daniel and Darling wouldn't have come cheap.

They're not on big money, given they are all much closer to the end of their careers than the start.
All 3 of them were great yesterday. Parker and Daniel played arguably their best games for the club, stood up and delivered when needed.

TDK is a good player, but for the crazy money he is on, he shouldn't be getting schooled by a 35 year old opponent who didn't come off the ground for the last 40 minutes.

 

[SSSSSS]

I think they'll be alright next year but I don't see a Premiership list.

It's going to take that many new arrivals a lot of footy just to gel and figure out how to play with each other. It took about 12 rounds of footy for Barrass and Battle to figure each other out and that was just two additions.

TDK beat him early but ran out of gas.

Way too early in the season. I will give it 6-8 games to assess properly but one thing is obvious to me - they got a wrong coach. That crap RTB dishes out is hard to watch. Only when Saints are behind they try to take the game on.

The players they brought in are OK but not stars. It will take some time to integrate them into the team.

We have had plently of forward 50 entries over the last 2 games, we just have pissed them up the all.

And its Enright's game plan now.

 

[Elixuh]

Listening to the big Texan, Riewoldt, defend saints with nonsensical claims is amusing.

 

[10571z]

Can someone explain why St Kilda have faith is SOS?

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Mihocek is one of the most honest footballers of the past decade.
Works hard, presents to the kicker. His teammates just love playing with him.

Did the Saints have a list spot squeeze? He'd be very good fit then right now. They did back out of the Aleer trade as well.

Who would he replace in our forward line.

Marshall/Keeler are 2nd rucks, Higgins and Ryan are the smalls, and he is not getting a game ahead of Sharman, Owens and Max Hall

One of Caminiti or Tauru needs to go up forward and that would solve our issue of our defence being too tall.

Owens. Low football iq, no craft and horrific skills. Consistently overrated by saints fans. Miochek is much more dependable.

The funniest thing out of all of that is Kennedy is someone they actually desperately need but they flicked him off to WB for some stupid reason.

The rest were absolute spuds.

It just makes no sense he gets away with it and gets another job as a saviour.

Well we are not carlton.

And we did not pick up those players.

Now do you want to talk about the St Kilda players that have been picked up via trades and free agency from 2023 to present?

The actual pertinent issue.

You’ve employed a man who did.. his obsession trying to prove how good his little draft picks are is insane.

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Good thing we have this bloke called Simon Dalrymple doing our drafts. (google him as well)

And have only traded our 2025 first round pick.

Now do you have a list of the players that YOU think sos has picked up.

3 trade and free agent periods and you have access to the internet so what is your opinion on all of them?

Such a delicate little wall flower. Bless your cotton socks.

No just treating your bullshit how it should be treated champ.

 

[Red Bull]

Can someone explain why St Kilda have faith is SOS?

The liniment sniffer gave ross the keys to the club.

Ross brought in his mate sos.

Sos brought in his 900k son

1&27 ain’t no fluke …

 

[Former Decathlete]

This guy has a point although he is a bit of a clown...

Temu is cheap and shit.

Saints went for over priced but average quality.

So more like Zara or something.

 

[Former Decathlete]

Sharman - horrendous in the last two games.
Owens - not really AFL standard. Can't kick..just likes to wrestle. Over rated by Saints fans.
Caminiti - not an AFL player .
Keeler - Developing but not currently AFL standard player.
Marshall - no evidence he can play as a fwd.

 

[Former Decathlete]

Can someone explain why St Kilda have faith is SOS?

Him and Ross are mates going way back..I think they used to own pubs together.
So just a classic mates club appointment.

 

[Toump Ass]

Didn't realise Sam.Flanders cost a first round pick.
Madness.

 

[GC2015]

Didn't realise Sam.Flanders cost a first round pick.
Madness.

Reportedly $900k per year salary as well.

 

[Toump Ass]

Sooking about Northern academies while handing Northern teams Top 10 picks for their fringe players, lmao.

 

[Permission Capable]

Didn't realise Sam.Flanders cost a first round pick.
Madness.

And they didn't want Geelong's first (allbeit late) for Marshal. So they could keep and play him as a key forward. More madness.

He's getting a game ahead of Sharman and Owens, although I rate Owens.

Hall is a gun who should get more midfield time.
