Tommy Walsh

the leprecaun-hugging, Irish-import could be trailled as a tall running defender for the Saints if Sam Gilbert pushes forward in Lyon's 2011 structure.
Tommy Walsh is listed as a forward at $73,200 which deff makes him worthy if put into that high possession/high marking count position for St.Kilda at CHB or a HBF
Doubt he will be used as a specific one-on-one kpp, as most classy forwards should out smart the Irishman in the push and shove/break away stuff, so that leaves the attacking or double teaming side of a defenders game, which is ideal for DT ;D

also Tom Simpkim was mentioned as a chance too (DEF priced at $84k)

If he plays, could find a spot. Although there are plenty of back rookies next season ;).

basment price, could be a sensation from what i've heard. looks a real athlete, lets keep this one quiet lads. HP no doubt the pool of rookies is as big as its ever been but if this guy plays in defence cutting in for interceptions and doing some rebounding could be a good rook esp how the saints like to play around with it down back (might get chap possies as well). and a forward, def on the short list.

but i'm a SCer, don't play DT but will still consider this guy

looked decent in the international rules if that means anything :)

the point that he is a Saint must show some interest in people, as most of the top DTers are St.Kilda players

will consider if he does well pre season, nice research
