Fair assessment and agree with the Best 22. This season may well be about experiment if 7 wins aren’t on the board going into the Bye. Expect to see the likes of Weller, Stevens, Armitage rotate out of the 22 to give time to the younger crop with some tinkering with the forward line setup. Got the Saints in the 9th – 11th bracket and expecting a big Trade Period.
AFL preview series: St Kilda Saints - 12th
Like most Saints supporters, I was waiting for a big name to be signed in the Trade Period and Logan Austin had me scratching my head. Don’t get me wrong, Austin will add to our Tall Defender depth but wasn’t the outside pace I expected us to make priority number one. It will be interesting to see how the Saints balance being in finals contention while putting time into McCartin, Battle, Clark, Coffield, and Long. I’m expecting a 9th – 12th finish with an aggressive recruitment drive behind the scenes.
Can St Kilda finally be more than just a finals contender?
Excellent article. What could have been if O’Grady was eligible – a walk up start as captain and would have kept both the GC and sprint contenders safe and fresh each and every day.
Is this Australia's Tour de France team of the century?
Rookie mistake with the Menzel mix up. Nothing wrong with being bold and making predictions early. Gives us a break from the cricket banter.
AFL 2015 preview: Carlton Blues
Good to see you going out on a limb Josh. Most discussions seem to have the top 8 set and more conjecture about the order of the teams not making finals.
Fremantle will be 2018's surprise finalists - no really, I'm serious
