    All I want for Christmas is...... for Harry Cunningham to win the Norm Smith medal this season.

    Why then are some clubs squad lists so much more up to date than others?

    It means all the quick foxes have jumped over you.

    2nds Official Swans Academy Thread (Player News and Discussion)

    I think there is the possibility for McGroder of returning to footy after trying athletics on the world stage. However, I'm not sure Pyke has much to say about it. McGroder has the advantage that he has been playing footy for some years through his youth, so he won't be picking it up from...

    But they call him a "forward" on the club website:

    Play Nice AFL Womens - General Discussion

    I want to pick your collective brains about Taylor Smith. Smith is a KPF we (the Swans) have traded in from the Lions (and before that, the Suns). I don't know a lot about the way she plays. She seems to be agile and have a good leap rather than being a strong, bulldozer-y type of key...

    Thanks, I enjoyed that! However, it was also a bit self-promotional on the part of enhanced football. I'm mindful that's it completely in their interests to highlight how much they helped Aly with everything. The key things I took away were: * marking is her weapon - she is really elite at...

    I think he'll be contending for a run in our front half, not in our back half. We have greater depth down back. Up forward Corey Warner, followed by Max King, are his closest contenders for that leaping medium forward vacated by Hayward, and surely he's a fair way in front of King right now...

    Thanks for clarifying. I'm surprised a few of you see Logan as a great player, or at least destined for greatness. I'm more used to people on this board dissing him and finding myself in the position of defending his place in the team. I think Logan is a good player who still has plenty of...

    I'm welcoming the differences of opinion but I'd be glad to hear more about it. You don't think Logan is sweet? You don't think being sweet stops you being a great player? Probably not the latter because I posed that as a question. You don't think Goodsey was as ruthless as he needed to be...

    Media Swans Talk in the Media 2025

    Interesting point about Malceski - although I note we were interested in Rosas a year ago, so our interest predated Mal's return to the club. Your point about other clubs being interested is pertinent too.

    Logan has a sweet nature. Possibly lacks mongrel/killer instinct. Doesn't prevent him being a good player (it takes all types) but probably stops him ever being great unless he develops this aspect. Do all the greats (think Leigh Matthews, Luke Hodge, Joel Selwood etc etc) have this hard...

    Player Watch Molly Thomas - welcome to Sydney

    Molly may not be the most talented of our new draftees, but I really like her vibe. Maybe not quite the same level but similar to the good vibes I got from Hausegger when we drafted her. I really look forward to seeing what she brings.
