It definitely could be, especially after Sam Fisher showed he could stop some of the big forwards of the AFL during season 2007. Gehrig and Hudghton have to stay healthy, so while on paper the Saints might have the best spine they need to make sure it is out on the field every week.
The Saints might do that, they have plenty of options in the ruck and up forward. Saints fans should not expect too much from the Gardiners in 2008, but maybe one of them provides some help if they are fit.
