Media Swans Talk in the Media 2022

[bedford]

I see what you did there

I'm completely stunned they put us on page 1. Their lack of coverage during the actual AFL season is disgraceful.

How good though

Some of the old legends from the original photograph would be looking at that and feeling proud of what they helped create. Must have felt like a hiding to nothing at the time but there was some heart and soul amongst that lot. Wright, Evans, Ackerley, Round were probably my faves

Papley and Mills would've been in the conversation I imagine. 3/50 is already above average so can't complain.

Above average to what ?

50/18 is 2.77777778

So 3 is about right for each club (with some having 2, obviously). Will be interesting to see if we squeeze 1 or 2 more

It's nothing to do with an average , Melbourne could have 7 and North none

 

[caesar88]

Awesome stuff by the club, they've published every players jumper presentation, from the young to the old and even the VFL players. This is such an easy thing to do that I don't know why it's not done every year, but nevertheless, great stuff.

That's what I was meaning when I said above average.

I don't have a problem with us even having less than average in this list tbh. In the end the better a player is, the more irreplaceable they become. I don't think it's a coincidence that we had a massive improvement last season that coincided with a really healthy list. Ditto demons last season. Take away a couple of their big guns for a bit and see what happens then.

In that respect you are better off having a more well spread list so that if injury strikes it isn't as catastrophic.

Still nothing to do with an average , better to say 3+ is good

Glad to hear him talk about pathways/goals

"Power, endurance, working on ground balls and just contested work, body work, footwork, all that sort of stuff you need to compete with the bigs and the smalls," Gould said
"That's one of my strengths ... I can do both.
...
"I'm trying to play on the best players. Play on the Isaacs, Bud, Paps, Will Hayward. All different types.

Yep,, I like the fact that theres a good spread of 'Valuable Players'..
Add, Ramp, Lloyd, Mills, T Macartin and a plethora of 1st-4th year players, and the spread is even greater

Hope he gets a decent crack at it this year.. He didn't come across as entitled, more happy to listen, work and learn.

 

[Nool Carpenna]

Really hope Gould kicks on this year.
Has handled the tricky questions re his progress, in a calm level-headed manner while maintaining his enthusiasm and voice within the group.
Looked the goods as a junior and, given the demands placed on him by the coaches, you’d expect him to be pretty solid if he gets a crack.
I wonder if the tough grounding is because they see him as potentially a key rather than a 3-4 or hbf?

His height is in between Rampe and McCartin Jnr, so it may be a possibility however it depends on his athleticism. Rampe could get away with it because he was such an athlete, but there is no way Gould could try to mind one of the gorillas.

Trained as a KPD all last year. This year sounds as if hes training in other areas too.??
