Preview R1: Changes for 2025

[Kane McGoodwin]

Did they cover the coach going rouge bonkers? And the thing is Waynus this isn’t your only criticism of him to start 2024. I could post more but I’d be accused of bullying the Fantasy Mod.

Did you honestly think such a stupid attempt to criticise me wouldn’t be thrown back in your face?

You’re losing it.

Do you think I’ll get a reply and no ones paying Wayne for posting silly

Well he can't put you on ignore... but I know he regularly baits me, I call out his BS & he disappears... repeat.

Imo, since his rogue bonkers comment, he is getting some $'s from AFC or another business connected with the AFL (SEN).

Nah, no one is paying him, this is just him and his silly opinions

.....It seems everyone understands 2024 except you George ...

I obviously don't understand 2024. I thought we were contending for finals. Apparently so did our genius coach. Expected improvement from a team that won 11 games only to win 8 in 2024.

The club released this last March:

"Speaking to the media on Wednesday, Nicks said the Club was not shying away from making the top eight this season but was aware it was not going to be an easy feat, with 17 other teams chasing the same goal.

“There is a lot of expectation out there, as there should be,” Nicks said.

“We are coming off a year where we are confident that we improved, we’re confident that we are going to do that again."

 

[AFC979810]

Obviously you don't ....it's been explained infinitum, for those open-minded to listen ....problem is too many don't read or try and digest the POV's

Obviously you think improvement is linear ....and there are no factors occurring thru a season that can affect team performance ....particularly as it would sully the Nicks narrative

Ahh that makes all the sense in the world! Thanks for clarifying. Improvement isn't linear. 2 steps forward - one step back. Genius

 

[AFC979810]

But as I've said, all PS .....the expectations in year 5 were of a completed rebuild, challenging ......not this shit !

Hang on a minute. What happened to all of those "improvement isn't linear "comments.

Our rebuild was supposed to be done and we were meant to be challenging. But we only won 8 games?!?!

He even said in the post he quoted that all preseason he said in year 5 the rebuild was completed, challenging …… not this shit!!!

You can’t make this shit up, well WaynesWorld19 can

 

[Velvet George]

WaynesWorld19 clearly has been missing a bit of attention

 

[WaynesWorld19]

It's mind boggling .....two statements can be true, it's the timeline that people what to draw upon

You don't think SAINT's fans would have a varying POV last week to this week ? ......in a week, they've lost Pou, Marshall, and Howard ....their only true Ruck, FB, and emerging star midfieler

But according to you, these factors are irrelevant .....that factors of "experienced" depth are irrelevant

Do you accept, that our depth is much improved in 2025 .....both from the existing list having played another 20 games ....plus the influx of 3 experienced players, and the full PS's of Murray, Thilthorpe, and Milera

Do you accept those 3 players with hugely interrupted years in 2024 will be better players, having full PS's

For those who decry the value of Milera ....and more importantly the springboard off HB ...it's an ignorant POV ...the importance was a huge factor in chasing another distributor option in Cumming

 

[Velvet George]

So again I ask, for those accusing me of bullying Wayne, tinman and Mostyn do you think that’s the case when out of nowhere he has a crack at me whilst he ignores all the shit he’s said about Nicks? Am I within my rights to point that out as are others he’s had a crack at?

Ooh so glad you brought up Milera, in your quote above:

“What happened to getting the ball in the hands of Milera”

He was playing but there wasn’t an instruction to get the ball to him!!!!!

Oh yes. We are in a much better place now than we were last year - especially with the addition of ANB, Peatling, Cumming. That doesn't have anything to do with your correct point from March of last year - We were ready to start challenging. Rebuild was done.

Sure we missed TT and having Murray back will help us. The fact is during that first month when we went 0-4 we were missing 2 first choice players. And lets not go too crazy - Neither TT or Murray were top 10 players at our club in 2023 when were a game and a bit off the 8.

After playing Milera 22 games in 2023 he had a full preseason and played the first 3 games in 2024. We were 0-3 with him in the side and our season almost over by the time he was done.

Maybe he might answer you, ask him to explain his rogue bonkers, coach right royally stuffed up and that he watched movies after half time

This thread has gone rogue.

It’s been Wayned

Jeez, why does the St Kilda game feel like a real banana peel kinda proposition. We all know round one can do funny things. DANGER, DANGER.

There should be absolutely no danger in this game.

2024 - Won by 32.
2023 - Won by 52.

They are decimated by injury. We are at home. We have added ANB, Cumming and Peatling. 30+ win easy.

Opinions aren't linear either

I thought his posts were sponsored by SEN and Golden North

I like it.

Unfortunately with stupid round 0 in play, its gonna make it mighty tough.

Round 0 stupid? It’s masterful!
Leave 2/3rds of you teams supporters wondering why the **** they don’t get to watch their team play!

 

[Velvet George]

Hmm seems like we won’t get an explanation from Wayne………again………
