If you added Sloane to your midfield and got Docherty back on the Park then you start to look a bit better. But as you said why would he.

Fisher, Sexton and Dow are good players in the making. In time they will be good solid players.

But God sakes don't pick up anymore O'Shea's or Kerridges. Get games into the young players at all costs.

I agree but he should only be a 4th option. I wonder how much he wants to play in a premiership though vs financial security.

I can’t see a top Melbourne side wanting him.
Collingwood maybe but other than that it’s the bottom Melbourne sides interested.

Possibly Hawthorn?

We have to land a big name player and start somewhere though.
Drafting kids only plus a few discards no one wants just isn’t working.

St Kilda has slashed ticket prices in an attempt to boost the attendance at Friday night's clash with Carlton at Etihad Stadium. Adult general admission tickets will be reduced from $25 to $13 during a sale period beginning on Thursday morning.

The Saints are using the AFL's dynamic ticketing system to drop the prices of premium tickets behind the goals on level two from $75 to $45. They will also open extra bays for general admission members to sit on level one rather than level three.

Saints play next Friday night as well against the Tigers.

If they put up flights, accommodation and a good book to read during the game they can count me in, then again, it doesn't even have to be a good book, as long as my phone is fully charged.

Yeah, even if every player on their list was fit does anyone think they would have more wins on the board?
Until they play us 15 times a year they aren’t going to win too many

I agree, I was just saying Cunningham, Glass-McGasker, Marchbank and Williamson are all big names.

Obviously not big names but when you have such a shallow list losing a guy like Docherty really hurts.

Possibly not, but we need continuity which is more important at the minute.
