Nicks last year, leave him as captain. Not sold on Geary, next year look at Billings if he proves himself this year.Go for Geary as next skipper, says Gilbert
ST KILDA defender Sam Gilbert says Jarryn Geary would be his choice as the Saints' next captain when skipper Nick Riewoldt eventually hands over the reins.
But he said Riewoldt remained the best captain he had ever seen and he would be happy with whoever held the title in 2016.
The Saints have not declared Riewoldt as the skipper for this season, but the 33-year-old champion remains the likely choice.
Gilbert said the St Kilda leadership group was strong and that remained the most important consideration.
St Kilda wants extra rookie over Carlisle ban
ST KILDA wants the AFL to allow it to add a rookie to its list after losing recruit Jake Carlisle to suspension after the Court of Arbitration for Sport's imposition of season-long bans on 34 past and present Essendon players.
Saints CEO Matt Finnis said on Sunday the club would upgrade a rookie to the senior list to replace Carlisle but would like the opportunity to add another player as a rookie so they were not disadvantaged.
He said the AFL was considering the matter.
"Our focus is to upgrade a rookie [but it] remains to be seen whether we will have another player to add to our rookie list in place in that upgrade."

I think it's only fair that other clubs effected should be allowed to top up. They also have lost players due to the essendon suspension.Go for Geary as next skipper, says Gilbert

Port, saints and demons look like taking essendon to court for the wages of those suspended and the dogs may also. 600k for the drugged out idiot Carlisle.
I will settle for essendon's 1st pick in the 2016 draft. Would have to be higher than pick 5 they got for the druggie Carlisle.

Yes brought the wife, had to as she is already an Aussie citizen,has been for 17 years, hard to run from her.
still have home in C.M but brought the young bloke over for education and I had to return to work. Niddrie is expensive now, all cafe scene and ladyboy types, cyclists and trend setters. Not really my scene but a huge thai population, restaurants and massage centres. Carnegie don't know the area and never lived there, ex Box Hill, Moe.
Thought you lived in Chaing Mai mr chooks, and as for bookie that chimp surfacers every now and then when he needs an excuse ....
Been busy, is BookMan still shacked up with with chippy or has he tossed him outNever
Gee Niddrie is a big comedown from CM and Carnegie......I use too date a a couple of women from over there....not my favourite part of town...
Niddrie the poor mans Essendon, or wanna be Essendon...yes yes i been working on some units there this year its changed a lot since i use to hang around there, the cafe culture there isn't anything much if i go to dinner i go carlton or fitzroy areas, maybe its the bad memories of those 2 women i can't forget....
Well chooks so sad you had to go back to work...we all get use to eating, never mind did you bring that pretty wife with you?

By the way chooks, around the time you were ummm deleted from the picking you might have not kept up wth who won the Gf in fantasy....it was me.....i could see you developing the colliewoobles there towards the end of the season, a most remarkable 19 straight wins....untill GRANT got you.

Chappy is a hell of a nice guy, got to know fairly well in the last 3 months as he is now a neighbour. Lives in Niddrie victoria a suburb that borders with Essendon. Shared a few Asahi's with him. A really soft spoken gentleman.
I must have missed it ,that's why I asked the question. I would like to say that I have a lot of respect for Chapmans ability and the way he played the game.What has the essendon cpt got against Chapman.
Well Ron I'm glad you asked that question.
You see Chappie wrote a book....and in that book he's had a go at Goodard for ummm well for all sorts of reasons, one of the reasons is Goodard shoot's his mouth off like a gattling gun if i read correctly.....if you read between the lines they don't like each other, Goodard in the press report from last year sounded rather foolish but never the less it can't be all as it seems other wise why make him captain if he rubs people the wrong way. He said a few more words in this mornings Age newspaper on the Chapman affair, something about friends and walls in other words a polite dig at Chappie, dare i say Wooooooooooshaaaaaaa has got a job on his hands.
Its rather interesting that the bombers are actively searching out talent be it over the hill and retired when they had Chapman and Fletcher with in...what gives here?......
Would do you good RON to pay attention here as this was all written up late last year, since your a nice bloke i don't mind repeating myself but lets not make it to often hey big fella?
Have to say that it sounds like there could be fault on either side that both partys should get over for the clubs benifit and their own respectability.
Chappie knows how to fuel sales of his book I reckon
