Even if he doesn't get in he is a All Australian in my eyes.Steele's 7th at the moment:
76: Bont
71: Oliver
70: Wines
66: Miller
63: Parish, Walsh
60: Steele
He'll get 10 this week, he keeps it up and he's right up there with them.

Steele will win a Brownlow before he’s done
It won’t matter who we play if we keep on with this style of footy. It’s even more exciting than last year because this style can take us all the way.
If we keep winning from here he might give this year a real shake.
I remember watching us get smashed by brissy a couple of years back, thinking we're way off the pace of them. Great win tonight vs another young, fast and exciting team.Byrnes & Connolly remind me of a young Aussie Jones & Matty Lappin. They've got a bit of zip both of them and I did mention Byrnes was the best at the club with his ball use by hand during pre-season...he has shown that especially tonight, some of the handoffs were incredible. Two great young kids making an impact.
Highmore unbelievable too, 9 intercept marks, he and Wilkie completely dominant down back.
I reckon this is better than our finals win last year. Brisbane are a quality side and we held our nerve for 3 quarters and blew them off the park in the last. What a win.
Renegades or Stars?I'm not sure Saints supporters have any real opinion about Melbourne supporters?
He looks so composed for a first year player and will only get better.
He could come in for Butler at the moment, i love Butts with all of my RWB heart, but the man could do with building some confidence in the reservesBest win of the year. Awesome stuff.
It'll be hard to see how Higgins can get back in next week. As much as I love him, I don't like dropping blokes after a good win like that.
As much as Steele did, there's no way he was BOG. This bloke set it up in the first half, made the opposition worry about him and that freed up the space for other players to shine and still carried on winning the ball.
Brilliant effort by Dunstan

So who goes out for Hanners next week?
Tommy Highmore speaks well! And what a game, what a great recruit
Yeah I think I said something along the lines of it being good to get the lesson and to get the win too. Honestly these last few weeks have just been great for us to show that we have the right blokes there. It’s taken us a long time to click this season but it’s so good to be doing it at the right end of the season.I said in the post game Pies thread last week that the last quarter against Collingwood was the best thing that could have happened to this group.
The coaches would have had a very clear message to give the players all week. You’ve got two choices: either follow the path from the games against Richmond and the first three quarters against the Pies, or go back to our bad ways like we did in the last quarter against the Pies and keep on getting the sh*t kicked out of us.
We chose the right path and beat the form team in the comp in their home state. What a ******* night!
And can we please now finally stop saying our wins against Richmond and the Pies were down to our poor opposition? Our wins since the bye have been down to a new style of uncompromising footy that stifles oppositions and stops them scoring.
It won’t matter who we play if we keep on with this style of footy. It’s even more exciting than last year because this style can take us all the way.
Who goes out for Higgins?
He's literally our Cyril. Stats sheets at a glance never looks impressive. But he manages to impact the game so often. Whether a big mark a big tackle or a big goal. And he managed all 3 tonight.
Not to say he's close to Cyril but similar in impact vs possessions.
Byrnes HAS to be the rising star nomination this week surely.

Ryan Byrnes for rising star nomination maybe???Finally got some closure. That 2 point loss in 2020 sat badly with me.
There are so many positives which could be discussed after tonight, but I’d like to throw forward 3 names.
- Ryan Byrnes (2 goals, 15 disp.)
- Leo Connolly (first goal in AFL)
- Tom Highmore (match high 6 intercept marks)
Give it up for these young and late draftees - they’re the future.
You bloody bewty!
