But that’s the point of having three tall options, to stretch the opposition, most of whom have two good tall defenders. He also dropped a couple that in a couple of weeks without the heat and resultant fatigue, we hope he will take.
I for one would vote for a Big Mac spine that consisted of McKay, McCartin, mcAndrew, McLean and McDonald. Further Mount McKay is the tallest peak at Falls Creek, pairing beautifully with Buller. Let’s hope they are not all downhill skiers. Now it seems certain that we could get Grundy and Smith...
This. The guy writing it was the editor of click bait central in Australia with a personal track record of being suspended by his former employer for questionable ethics. He now throws stones while working in a glass house that receives a significant portion of its revenue from sports betting...
Complete conjecture I know - what else would go on this thread right? - but it does seem that since negotiations were parked with Bud, others have progressed dramatically. Maybe this would have happened anyway, but also it does seem like both negotiator bandwidth and/or funds that had been...
Footyology finals wrap up
Footyology podcast (Rohan Connolly and Rob Shaw) with wrap up on first week of finals. Swans v Melb approx 15 mins in. They actually talk about why the swans won it, and for some time too, not just why the demons lost it, which is a nice change for Vic based media.
There is tiny bit of irony that we lost a lot of players (Mumford and sons, Mal, Mitchell etc) because of Buddy’s large salary and now that we have back ended around the end of his 9 year deal, buddys salary may see buddy lost to the swans.
The round wrap up article on foxfooty. Scroll to the last heading for discussion on swans youngsters. May also be some discussion of another swans milestone ;)
Four finalists thrown into 0-2 pit of despair; Buddy deal the ‘best $10m ever spent’: Talking Points
For those of you who are keen reserves watchers, has Armartey been played as a key defender in the past? How did he perform? On the face of it he could be a good key back, fast, good pair of hands, good while the ball is in flight, tall enough to mind the big boys. He doesn’t seem to have that...
A sensational day yesterday. A couple of things I loved were the crowds reaction to Hannebery when he (and the other Saints) players went up the race after chairing the boys off. Thousands near the members gave him a standing ovation. The deserved send off of a revered member of that 2012 team...
Howdi all, Hashdag here, swanophile dad joke lover and keenly interested in list management.
1. Where are you from? Born in Melbourne and moved to Sydney in ‘92. Had followed Essendon up to this point. Did the standard Aussie stint in London in the mid ‘00s.
2. Why did you start supporting the...
I wonder whether we have been thinking about potential changes to the way the game is being played in our list decisions.
If you look at our drafting over the last three years, where there has been a choice (I.e we are not getting top level talent through the academy) we have been taking...
