St Kilda's AGGRESSIVE List Cull | Ruthless but Required?

[@johnheffernan7975]

Honestly I'm happy the team is being ruthless with the list. For so many years we have been mediocre. We have pick 7 and 8. This draft is deep. Good things are coming. We need to have faith

[@MrBeefvulc]

I totally agree you need to have courage and not play it safe to go after the best players We have an excellent coaching group now under good management with a great crop of young players the future is looking brighter

[@joshuafrerk1363]

Tim needed to Finnish his career a saint. Heart and soul player. We needed to show him some loyalty and give him the 2 years with us. He was a shining light when we had nothing. Will be missed.

[@GeorgeKarapanagos]

Jack Hayes had massive potential that we didn’t tap into. Injuries took it’s toll on another quality player…

[@richardatkins4386]

I wish they had kept Jack Hayes, I thinks he is over his injuries, and he would be great helping in the ruck and on the forward line or moving down back and filling in the spot left by Josh Battle . He is big bodied and knowledgeable. A bad mistake I believe.

[@kennedysan1045]

Yep, that move is puzzling

[@GusE1389]

Couldn’t we have signed Hotton to a one year deal ? Was hoping another preseason to see if he could’ve stepped up as a high pressure forward when Bulter of Higgo were down on form.

[@clivenobbs2848]

Its fine to be ruthless as long as the club recruits or develops players who will be able to fill the voids and take the club where we want it to be. Has not been the story in years gone by. Getting better i agree but still not fulfilling what is needed.

[@bluedogbluey6742]

If you say so Jake....bit lean on the talls arn't we? When you thin out the trees too much, soil erosion occurs, weakening the foundations, then everything comes tumbling down.

[@MichaelFawssett]

In Ross we trust. Only he really knows what his plans are but I’m curious to see where we have the forwards to fill the gap left by Tim.

[@allangrant49]

Love Tim but cant give him a 2 yr contract. Maybe not ruthless enough. There are a 3 or 4 hanging on and will need a big improvement in 2025 to hang on. Most of you know who they are. Some may have a bigger list of fringe players than me. 2025 is a big year. A few will need to have a great year on the field or will be time to go.

[@kanewhite2161]

Sad to see them go, but understand why all were let go apart from Hayes. Without Campbell we have no backup rucks in stock unless we want to debut Keeler or Heath. Would love to see them get a game, but is it the smartest decision to only have one ruck who's played an AFL game?

[@PaulNash-k7q]

If we are going for young players we need to give Keeler and Heath a chance.

[@MichaelFawssett]

Hast thou forgotten Windy? You don’t mention him at all.

[@SaintsTVPod]

Mentioned him in one of my last videos breaking down our youth.

[@raymondhorvath2406]

I would have kept Membrey but i understand why he was delisted but with him and Hayes lives us a bit thin on the key forward front if there are injury's. I would have kept 1 of either Hayes or Membrey but I like the clubs attitude with youth especially before Tassie coming in.

[@tonyjohnston7817]

Why the heel do they stubbornly persist with Bonner when everyone was screaming to drop him then get rid of him anyway???

[@dannyades6768]

Now if we muck up our draft selections again from this position we’ll be rebuilding for another 15 years. So hard to watch us waste top 10 selections 90% of the time. It’s so hard to think positively about this aggressive draft strategy when we’re so poor at it traditionally

[@mr.hamborger9602]

This is the first year we've had picks in the top 10 since 2018, and Max King was no mistake. Phillipou, Wilson, Owens, NWM, Windhager, Garcia, Schoenmaker out of our last 3 drafts, have a bit of confidence!

[@kennedysan1045]

I've been thrilled with our drafting over the past few years.

[@dominicphillips8403]

I don't think Crouch is a sure thing... he may well not accept a payout and "play out" his final season

[@Want0nS0up]

Ruthless Ross is also trophyless.

[@BENNYS-STORY-TIME]

Tim keeps the team going if his not there max isn't playing good keeps Max's in his place he kicks 4 to 6 goals a game

[@nathanmaber1276]

True Tim helps take the pressure away from King

[@Stormmer4life]

we need to trade KING if he under performs next season

[@FlixMr]

Who is going to kick goals? King? Yeah good luck. Membry big mistake

[@SaintsTVPod]

King, Sharman, Owens, Hammer, Butler, Higgins, Wilson to name a few?

[@summersoldier1003]

Sharman and caminiti. Camanitit could be a Big body FF in a few years.

[@jackhawki2388]

paul curtis picked up in ssp?

[@wiz1983]

Curtis Taylor

[@summersoldier1003]

hayes:(

[@zofu3011]

we will be bottom 8 next year getting rid of some decent player its a joke
