    VFL 2026 Swans Reserves

    I don't know I'm sorry. But I agree with liz that it may be possible to do both. It's also possible that if she remains a W line coach, she wouldn't continue with the VFL role once the W season commences, or possibly even once the W pre-season officially commences (some time next month). Or...

    Just open and shut the stall door 10 cm. Should kickstart the lights. Personally I kinda like the dark!

    VFL 2026 Swans Reserves

    Brooke Lochland (former AFLW player for the Dogs and Swans), who has been involved with our Academy since her retirement (I believe), was running on and off the ground with the Swans VFL coaching group when we played the Giants last week. Could she be one of the line coaches? - I think Adam...

    VFL 2026 Swans Reserves

    Thanks for the feedback. Must have been in the match thread which I don't keep up with very much because I didn't note a lot of those comments. But makes sense. Now I feel silly.

    Quality post grimlock ! My guess, and it's nothing more than a guess, is that he has a health/wellbeing issue that is impinging on his performance without preventing him from playing. Hopefully he will recover and renew his case for senior selection sooner rather than later. While Hammer is...

    I don't make a habit of blowing my own trumpet, but I think this post has aged well and hasn't gotten the love it deserved! 😜

    (Some) other clubs have had more success than us at the MSD, but the odds of getting a player better than a fit Adams are miniscule. It's more about getting an extended train-on period with a player. We'll have scouted the prospects available (noting that we'd be picking towards the back of...

    Delighted for Will! He's worked long and hard for this, gradually adding more weapons to his size, strength and speed. His form in the 2s this year has been excellent. Well deserved opportunity! Fingers crossed he manages the transition to seniors. He'll have a good crew around him. I'm...

    Injury 2026 Injury Thread

    Officially, maybe. But in practice I don't think it works like that at all. The club can't literally force him into retirement, but they can have a conversation with him about the various options and the way it plays out. I don't think he's unable to see that it's his last season and I...

    No Oppo Supporters 2026 General Discussion

    I think that the difference is that AFL media is less independent of the governing body than with other sports. The AFL has an inordinate amount of power and control over the sport it governs for a sport of its size. I don't know the details of other sports (and I don't follow any other sports...
