On Ferg - Does that mean if we want to promote him to the senior list we need to cut 2 players to stay below 44?

45-2+1= 44

Or is my pre coffee logic totally off?

Based on my mid-coffee logic, and no other knowlege, i'd think you'd be correct, but I would think he would still be OK if we wanted to temporarily elevate him to cover a long term injury.

Think I need another coffee (after trying to work out the above math). :D

We have 39 senior list players, 4 rookies, plus a NSW scholarship rookie.

Pelchen said a couple of weeks ago they were yet to decide whether they would fill the last spot (alternatively they could leave a spot open for one of the rookies after the pre-season).

If they take another player (would be a rookie as the Saints have no PSD selections) there is still the opportunity for elevation to cover a LTI or after the half-way point of the season.
 
Yeah I had it totally wrong haha.

We could promote Ferg at the end of next year and would only need to cut 1 player. Him being outside of the list had me confused about our PSD and/or rookie spots.

Are we sure we have a rookie pick though? I thought Roberton was the last player on our list?

Now I'm wrong (totally forgot about him!) :oops:

Yeah, we're done.

Wish the Saints would update their player list on the website.
 
Feels strange knowing our list is done for this off season. I think Roberton will be a really good player on the HBF or wing but outside of the rumors of Stanley or Tommy Lee playing CHB I have no idea what Scotty and the coaches have in mind. Better hope like hell that Mitch Brown stays fit and in good form. Not too good form though, dont want to risk the Eagles signing him...

What a cluster**** next years trade period is going to be!
 
The Saints have indicated that they will be active in FA in years to come. Don't think they wanted to mess with the Goddard compensation this season, but the budget appears to be there.

If he's offered a contract he's not eligible for free agency next year, have to trade or draft. Just need to organise to bend West Coast over in Ball/Tippett/Cripps style
 
I think the assumption is that Fisher in his twilight years isn't going to want to be the runner out of defense quite so much, and instead is going to be the stay-at-home full back. They're going to try to overcome his height deficiencies for the job by compensating that with strength and other conditioning factors that they can control. Reckon Blake will have the same conditioning program, just in case Fisher gets injured. At a little over 190ish, they're not perfect, but they'll probably do for the year until Brown comes over.

So want Brown to play 100 games, just for the father-sons. He and his wife are going to make fantastic athletes!

We currently have 40 senior players, 4 rookies and 1 NSW Scholarship Player. Which makes grand total of 45 players :cool:

Yep - we got that (with Roberton).

Just on Brown, even if he's uncontracted at seasons end and there's probably a 95% chance he will be uncontracted because that's just the nature of players these days even if they plan on staying, they like to build thier value, however, there's still no guarantees that he'll join us. Nominating us this year will have no bearing on next year, there will be a number of clubs bidding for him next year. I just wanted to point this out cause i been reading a lot of posts on here about Brown and how he's already coming over next year. People are going to be disapointed if he ends up at Carlton or Collingwood or Richmond or another melbourne club. These things are never done until the player signs on the line.
 
If the rumours are true, and Stanley is being turned into a tall backman, we may not need Brown anyway.

We'll replace the thought of an experienced AFL defender for a 19yo rookie who's been playing as a forward?

Geez, you've got the patience of a ... ... ... um ... ... ... oh ... ... ... a saint :eek:
