Agree with those outs Pup except for Voss.

Milne althogh he has not been kicking goals this season has started to play more around the field so i have no problem with him. A ruckman is our main problem. We used Kosi as our ruckman this year but he needs to be used in other positions such as up forward and to cover any holes in defence we get through injuries.
Brooks should have been used more this year i agree.
Also Watts Deseverves a chance in the league side next season.


Agree with all of the above 8)

Threw away too many games during the year (the collingwood + eagles ones killed us).

I'd have Vossy in my 22.


Yeah i would have him in my 22 as well,

The only reason i put him in the outs was because i have heard a few whispers that he might give it away.. But if he went on (which he looks like now) then he would be in my best 22.

Disappointing to see Vossy hang up the boots at the age of 29. Still had one more year in him i reckon, but was clearly out of favour with Lyon in the second half of the year.

Played some very good footy with the saints. Versatile as a defender and later on as a lead-up smallish forward.

Very disapointing to see him go. Agree that he was out of favour with Lyon and that would have contributed to his decision

I know many Saints fans won't agree with this, but I think Ross Lyon is an excellent coach and I think that will be shown in the coming years.

I know it may take a few years for us to be sucessfull. I have not agreeed with soem of his game plans this season when we have gone defensive. towards the end of the seson we saw better football from the saints because we attacked more. It just took time for Lyon to realise that is what the team needed.
