Game Day 2026 Swans Pre Season Match Discussion
Seen enough over the years to not overact to preseason games good or bad, as form lines seem usually irrelevant when the rea stuff starts, but the two KF's were a real highlight today. Glad it seems Cox has left Logan Forward, because of all the listed KF's outside Charlie he clearly has the... -
Player Watch #14 Callum Mills (c)
If he could return to his 21-23 form he could be the bigger addition to the team than Charlie. Will the footy gods ever let the midfield of Errol, Callum, Chad, Isaac & Brodie be fit and firing at the same time though, that's the biggest question mark. There will always be some injuries, but... -
Player Watch #24 Dane Rampe
Surely almost certainly one of Lloyd, Rampe get the delist-re-rookie treatment to give us more flexibility/options at the draft. It seems an outdated stupid rule to me anyway, surely if a player signs a 1 year minimal deal of under $x value, you should be able to just slide them to the rookie... -
List Mgmt. 2025 Draft & Trade Thread - Picks 31, 32, 42, 60 and 71
I really, really, really want someone else to take Ah Chee, so he doesn't go to the Crows. The whole pre-season draft is a bit of a fallacy anyway tbh. Sick of seeing the pre-season draft used as a barrel to bend someone over for trading. Some clubs (cough, cough Crows for one) absolutely love... -
Player Watch #6 Logan McDonald
Surely Cox was just musing in the media. I mean he's not going come out say, 'nah McLean will def be in the 2's bar injury'. McDonald feels like such a good fit to go with Charlie. Amartey is better suited to be a forward/ruck than stay at home forward too imo, between them all you actually... -
List Mgmt. 2025 Draft & Trade Thread - Picks 31, 32, 42, 60 and 71
The reported initial offer of Hayward, Florent + 2 firsts for just Curnow and a 2nd rounder feels (felt) a far worse for us than what eventuated. Even though we sold Florent for way unders, we got way more picks back in the 2 eventual deals than our proposed one. I was super pissed with our... -
Player Watch #11 Tom Papley
Need him back to his best and try to form a mosquito fleet with Rosas and a Campbell/Dattoli/Cleary or whoever. Not to sink the boot in, but he also really needs to get that tackle pressure back up to help compensate the Hayward loss. He should be that real leader of the small forward brigade... -
Player Watch #35 Charlie Curnow - Welcome to Sydney
No question he improves our top end talent. Hopefully Cox can come up with a bit more sophisticated ball movement than the clunky stuff we saw this year, and we don't end up just being a kick it to Charlie team. Hopefully his presence means one of (or better, both of) McDonald/Amartey to go from... -
Player Watch #13 Jai Serong - Welcome to Sydney
Hopefully he can be that 3rd tall interceptor we need....and more importantly, hopefully his presence means Cox will stop ****ing around with the Lizard and releases him from being the 3rd tall at times, which blunts him by highlighting his weaknesses, and allows him to go into a very attacking... -
List Mgmt. 2025 Draft & Trade Thread - Picks 31, 32, 42, 60 and 71
I hope for Rowbottom getting shopped around is a bit of a kick up the ass that lights a bit of a fire in him. Something similar happened to Jude if I recall. Rowbottom is someone from what he showed when first came into the comp, I probably expected him to be better than he is, not saying he's... -
Past Will Hayward
Disappointed to lose him and he leaves a big hole imo, bigger loss than ppl will give credit for. Goals and pressure, and was always good for a quality reliving mark up the ground (sometimes at important moments). Always gave effort defensively unlike some. Some others going to have to lift... -
List Mgmt. 2025 Draft & Trade Thread - Picks 31, 32, 42, 60 and 71
Geelong traded a player they delisted? I know it's only for a pick 99 so hardly a scandal or anything to be angry about...but wtf, since when is this actual thing? Or has it always been? Surely once you delisted a guy surely you can't involve them in trades, not that anyone would usually want to... -
Past Jack Buller
Reckon he'll be decent for them, unfortunately, but I guess he would've needed injury to play for us now. He competes unconditionally which has been the flaw in our other KF's. Would've liked to have kept him though, the list still feels a KF short.... .....well not feels short, it's definitely... -
List Mgmt. 2025 Draft & Trade Thread - Picks 31, 32, 42, 60 and 71
Looking at other trades, LOL at Essendon turning that offer down. Don't mind a club taking a stand on some of this stuff, but not sure them in that situation were the club to do it. Hawthorn only loses, no ins, good. Glad Geelong missed Marshal too. I'll be very disappointing in all and any... -
Past Oliver Florent
He's a better player than we sold him for and I don't buy the notion he was just a fringe player, he what had a form slump and missed 7 games this year after how many 100 in a row or whatever it was. If he actually gets some time as a genuine mid at Carlton I wouldn't be surprised if we see the...
