They will miss Howard with Battle gone.
Marshall might get back for start of season, but will be a battle to keep fitness up and body together while holding down the ruck all season.

Saints are screwed more than us, bottom 6 for them.

Yeah I genuinely feel sorry for the saints with these injuries

St Kilda are the bucket hats of the AFL.
They seem like a fine idea at the time, but in reality… they are more joke than credible.

F2nd is looking better every week.

They are a Ross the Toss extended meltdown / HR case away from finishing bottom 3.

Sadly I think I agree with you - we might do way better with this future second than we or saints thought. Melbourne are still really interesting though

Those second rounds picks are going to be super valuable come draft time with Gold Coast needing points for academy picks, we could turn the saints plus ours into a very decent first round pick.

Judd McVee absolutely slaughtered Stringer in that disappointing night game.

Good young player.

We are St Kilda, Essendon have been worse than them for 20 years.

Two players with infections, MFC not paying the cleaners?

This going to be a cracking thread once the season proper commences.
