Nah, there's a few Saints players we'd like you to work your magic on first.
I'll tell you what sainter, i'll work some magic on Gilbert. This kid needs a rising star nomination soon. He'll finish behind Pendlebury and Selwood, but he at least deserves a nomination. One of the finds of the season.

A very good win by the Saints and well done to Birssy. Just a question to you St. Kilda fans and my apologies if this has been discussed elsewhere, but did I hear Tim Watson mention something on last night's coverage about a mate of Luke Ball being killed in an accident yesterday morning? I notice he wore a black armband last night and kissed it at the end of the game.

Hear Hear. Rocking player. Moves every bit as uncoventionally as Birss but has real poise.

Luke Ball appeared on the tv show before the game. He spoke briefly about that matter

I'll leave it in your capable hands.

He's been very consistent all season and yet every weekend the selectors seem to find a player that bursts onto the scene with one excellent game before doing very little the following match so I've given up.

How is he travelling? Better now.

I tell you something for nowt: the boy can kick. His goal from the boundary line was directly infront of me and it never looked liked missing.

Finals or no finals we should be playing him ahead of Thompson. (Sorry Thommo, I love you but your days are numbered. Having said that he'll probably have 25 touches against Hawthorn)

Sorry to say but Andrew Thompson's days were over at the end of last year.
And lets face it , if they were serious about Andrew Thompson he would have been a late inclusion to the team against collingwood purely because he is a wet weather specialist.

I agree. I thought both peckett and thompson would of been big risks for 2007, purley because of their age. Peckett retired, which i thought was wise. Harvey is showing that age doesn't matter, but harvey is a freak (most players aren't)

As you rightly pointed out, Harvey is in a different league to most players. I love Thompson, and all he has done for the club, but times up.
