SA Footy

x-amount of years ago (around 6 I would guess), the Saints picked up Reiwoldt and Koschitske with their first two draft picks (1 a priority) .. Both were tipped to lead the Saints to glory and for a long time to come.

I know Kosi's had a bad run with injury over the years and Riewoldt has played some great footy, but have they done as much in that time as Buddy & Roughhead have in the last 2 and a bit years?

All 4 players should still have their best footy ahead of them and none of the 4 have tasted the ultimate success, but 2 have been in the system for half the time.

I'd take Franklin and Roughead, in fact I think Roughie is better than Riewoldt. He is very, very underrated. Has the best pair of hands in the competition.

It looks a little something like this:

Franklin >> Roughead > Riewoldt >> Kosi.

Riewoldt has the best work rate in the league but he pushes up the ground more and as a result doesn't tend to kick large amounts of goals very often. And it's a shame about Kosi because, while still a pretty good player, he could've been unbelievable but injury and mis-management have cost him dearly.

Riewoldt & Kosi will NEVER amount to anything whilst they remain at a club
which chooses failure.

Tend to agree...at least the Hawks have a few premiership cups to look at and they have had some success in Buddy &
Roughheads lifetime...
