McKirdy's wrap via Code:




AFL.com.au's write-up of Heeney's presser:

Coaching boost to give Swans an edge in Cox's second season

Dean Cox will lead a bolstered off-field staff into his second season as head coach

Heeney really knows how to put mayo on an interview. " Especially in Attack " ???????
Melbourne could not get the ball inside 50 with any depth let alone score.

Thanks, just found it. Nice article.

 

[bloodsbigot]

I think you are premature on pulling the pin on him.

Premature? You're joking. I think we've all had the patience of saints over the years. How many more years are we gonna tolerate more screwups? What? 5? 6? He's been doing this every year over his career and he's already 28.

I'm not pulling the pin on him completely.

There needs to be a reason our players like him so much. He has some value obviously.

I just think he should be stripped of the captaincy because he can't get on the park. And all of his stupid off field injuries. I think he's a very dumb boy. We need a thinking captain. Not idiots who trip over gridiron balls and get into drunken wrestling.

If you would treat every player like this we would have a draftee as a captain.
You need to settle down.
Watch the Swans in the top 4 this year.

Mills in the midfield.
Egg on your face.

Who was the interviewer? Tommy who?

 

[Nool Carpenna]

Who was the interviewer? Tommy who?

Tommy Sheridan, 80-odd games at Freo. Seems he's done well for himself post-football.

Was it a good interview?

 

[Ticky009]

Whoops - got busy and forgot the 2nd part. Something for the weekend.

You're delusional. No player matches the resume of mills in terms of stupid shit in preseason. Not to mention he's been injured for every Grand Final we've made with him in the team. He's an idiot. If you can't see that, I'll just agree to disagree at this point.

BTS of the Newcastle community camp

And on the Sydney Swans’ community camp in Newcastle this week, it was the kids of Carrington Public School who ripped the Band-Aid off, surrounding one of the biggest questions of the AFL off-season.

“Do you have any friends on other teams?” a young boy asked, to a panel of Swans players that included Justin McInerney

But McInerney summed up the situation perfectly.

“I had two friends who got traded to another team, and made a new friend in Charlie,” he said with a grin.

[Kiama Chris]

He wasn't ready when he was with us but it sounds as if Mattner got him going. Go well young man (not too well!).
