FOX SPORTS News ‏@FOXSportsNews
.@sydneyswans will make a major announcement tomorrow, Friday March 8 at 1pm EDT in the Swans Club Lounge. What do you think it could be???


Kennedy re-sign
Goodes announcing it's his last year?

or worse...

 

[Jack Lord]

I believe Derrek Kickett is announcing a comeback.

 

[Blood Bath]

Maybe we're giving up our COLA

 

[GoTheSwannies]

Kennedy signed 4 extension

 

[Blood Bath]

Kennedy signed 4 extension

source?

 

[GoTheSwannies]

Maybe we're giving up our COLA

Or maybe like the nab interchange rule we've decided to use a bit more COLA without penalty

 

[robbieando]

If player related doubt it would be retirements this early unless it was Rohan but he has been training this week so doubt that would the case, so I would think its a re-signing of a group of younger players including Kennedy.

Could be sponsorship related - ie. QBE extending their deal and adding on major $$$$

 

[GoTheSwannies]

source?

Sorry to spoil the party, but source: my wishful thinking, my hopes, etc ... you get the picture

and it was meant to be 4 year extension

 

[Jack Lord]

Maybe we're giving up our COLA

At the risk of sounding like a dope, I don't get it?

 

[Blood Bath]

At the risk of sounding like a dope, I don't get it?

Like confessing to the AFL that we no longer want our extra 9.8% salary cap space

 

[robbieando]

COLA = Cost of Living Allowance or in simple terms extra salary cap space

 

[Jack Lord]

Ah, acronyms.

 

[RUNVS]

Maybe the AFL have given the Swans a extra $1 million in our salary cap and announced that whatever the interchange cap number is the Swans around allowed to go over it by 10%

 

[SydneyPhilly]

I'm worried that its Rohan or Mitchell calling it quits

I feel it's not going to be the 'worse' you're alluding to if it's at the Swans Club Lounge, seems a fairly relaxed sort of place? I would suspect it would be someone re-signing, or yeah maybe Goodes' final year?

Or else yeah most probably a major sponsor.

It doesn't sing out bad news. Long way out, publicity that it's happening. Sounds like there trying to build a vibe and while in politics and business Friday is the day to frop bad news, sports clubs it's the day before the Weekend papers. All the signs point to a positive.

 

[Blood Bath]

SCG stand won't be ready for another 5 years, that's my hypothesis.

 

[Syd]

Swans will announce the un-retirement of Tony Lockett to stand at FF until Tippett$ 11-week ban is up!

My (boring) guess:

Isn't this around the time they announce the leadership group? I believe Jarred Moore was in the group last year (could be a great trivia question in a 10 years time - which player in the '12 leadership group didn't play a single seniors game) so perhaps a replacement will be named? JPK perhaps.

 

[Swansujelly]

"Lance Franklin has decided to sign with a team that will bring him what he truly desires, a Premiership. While he enjoyed his time with Hawthorn, Lance realized where his best chance for another Flag was, and that is with the current premiers. While he enjoyed his time with the Hawthorn Football Club, Lance knows that he cannot waste any more time with a bunch of choking, offended flogs. While Lance acknowledges the Hawthorn Football Club, and it's fans for being there to support him in his development, Lance cannot see a future with a club that is so offended,that it blames everything, except themselves, for their utter failure to win the most winnable ever* 2012 Grand Final. At this time, Lance is not available for comment. He is currently having a surf with Kurt Tippet, thank you.."

That would be a fair guess.

 

[Ed_Gein]

Really hopeful it's JPK signing a contract extension.

If you're right they probably need to look up the meaning of the word major before announcing any more pressers.

 

[Ed_Gein]

If not JPK resigning, maybe Grundy is retiring.

 

[vonn]

My bet is contract extension.
