Grabbed an interview with Cam McCarthy at the announcement today. Can listen to it on Friday Night at 7pm on Hawkesbury 89.9FM. One of the nicest blokes I've met.

Thoughts? Re-signing? mid season trade of Frawley to us
Itll take a while for the league ltd oops I mean news ltd to accept us. Took the swans 20 years.I thought the coverage of the announcement in the Daily Terror this morning was a bit puzzling. Yes they actually covered it, which was nice. Good photo of the boys etc. But the headline "Giants commit to young guns" and the line that we saw enough of Josh Kelly in a quarter of footy to resign him for two years, I thought was a bit backward.
Surely the headline should have been "Young guns commit to the Giants" and taken the tone of 'the boys saw enough of the Giants to want to stay and be a part of the team going forward' not the other way around.
Oh well. I suppose I should be grateful it was there at all.
This is fantastic news. Kelly from all reports is just an absolute class act, only bad luck with injuries can stop him from being a great player. McCarthy is a real surprise...I think most of us wondered what would happen there but probably more than any other re-signing he is an example that we have a wonderful culture and he wants to buy in. The rumours about James Stewart and Collingwood just wouldn't go away so thank God this can put that to bed.
Clearly the better results and massive improvement in facilities is having a positive effect although it must be said our record in keeping the kids we want has been first rate.
The next big challenge is to re-sign Jezza long term and get young Tom Boyd to do the same. Once he gets time time in the middle I'm confident he will do exactly that.
I've never heard a credible rumour about us and stewart, in fact all sources indicate we aren't interested. We will be picking up highly rated Darcy Moore as a F/S this draft year who is very similar to Stewart so you don't have to worry about us targeting him.
How has he been going anyway? Can't remember him playing many games but obviously a contract extension shows he is doing something right
Stewart was good in the twos against Sydney.
I can see him as the Heater replacement in a couple of years.
Isn't he a KPP?
Not by our standards
In Before Carlton trade For Him.
His 198cm thats key position in any team.
