Past #42 Robbie Fox - The Fantastic Mr Fox
Disappointed to see him go. Not the most spectacular player but more often than not he was solid for us. Pretty much the only player who gave it a good go over the last two Grand Finals. -
List Mgmt. 2025 Draft & Trade Hypotheticals
He would have been a great addition - if we could have got him at the right price. The ridiculous talk in the media of us needing to offer up someone like Heeney or Gulden would have resulted in me burning my membership outside the Swans offices if it had happened 😏 -
Autopsy 67 pt win vs West Coast - R24
Well that game pretty much summed up our season. Periods when we were very good and periods when we were bloody awful. Far too many players who drifted in and out of the game (and the season) showing far too much inconsistency. Also too many displays of poor skills and even poorer decision... -
what is the most annoying phrase in the AFL?
Pretty much everything that spews out of Dwayne Russell’s mouth, to be honest. ‘Chaos ball’ being one example.- Words: 19

Toast Welcome Mathew Pavlich
Do you mean ‘how are any good CEOs qualified’? Leaving aside formal qualifications such as an MBA etc, I’d expect to see someone with many years of experience in an associated industry, with at least 10 years at C-suite level. Experience dealing with boards and key stakeholders. Understands... -
VFL 2025 Swans Reserves
Forward line just not functioning so far. Not sure if that’s due to its structure or the terrible delivery into it. That kick from Francis being the latest example. -
Roast Better get yourself a lawyer son
I’m not sure why anyone is questioning the three weeks. He did elect to bump and he did make contact with the head. You might want to argue that the rule and punishment are flawed (but given the focus on concussions I don’t think the AFL has much choice) but given that the rule is written as it... -
VFL 2025 Swans Reserves
If they can’t sort the VFL out then a push for a proper AFL Reserves competition will only intensify. A full set of reserves fixtures mirroring the AFL first team games each week needs to be considered now. -
Game Day Match simulation v GWS
“Oddly shaped ground”? It’s the exact dimensions of Docklands (it used to be odd shaped when they first put the tramline in but then duplicated Docklands when they removed the bus lane on the other side later on). -
Autopsy Sydney Legacy in Grand Finals continues 10 goal loss to the Lions
Unfortunately our entire 2025 season campaign will be defined within the context of Grand Finals. It won’t matter how well we go throughout the regular season, or the finals should we qualify, because every win, loss or draw will have an asterisk against it with ‘*it doesn’t matter, let’s see... -
Coach Sack Horse
But he isn’t a “mate”. Not to supporters, not to players and not to club staff. He’s the Head Coach of one of the biggest clubs in the most elite professional football competition in Australia. I get that some supporters are less constructive in their comments than others but it’s got nothing... -
Traded #18 Jacob Konstanty
Yep, I can’t disagree re his injuries. I know a couple of ex-Academy boys who played with him in the Reserves (well, my son knows them really) and they always sang his praises. They said that on the ground he always stood out. Anyway, sorry off topic really. -
Player Watch #20 Sam Reid
Correct, remember how he was thrown into the ruck and even the backline on occasion. I was as frustrated as everyone else with his injuries but always rated him when he was fit and able to play. -
Traded #18 Jacob Konstanty
I think you can add Darcy Cameron to that list. -
Player Watch #20 Sam Reid
Going to have to disagree with you on this one, mate. Don’t let his injuries detract from the fact that when he was fit and firing he offered a genuine, strong and productive forward option for us.
