Player Watch #35 Charlie Curnow
huh? sorry this doesn't make much sense to me. We're only going to be playing against good defence's when come finals, so what we see against a good defence is what we'll get in finals. When you look at the finals series in 2023, he kicks 3 goals for the entire 3 games. That's what I expect... -
Player Watch #35 Charlie Curnow
I think I look at the finals series of Geelong vs Collingwood in 2022 with Cameron. Geelong didn't need Cameron all the time, and definitely didn't win the grandfinal because of him, but when they needed him in a close final he kicks 3. I don't think they win that game without him, and that's... -
Player Watch #35 Charlie Curnow
Ok, I wanted to organise my thoughts, because the Curnow conversation has a lot of emotion tied to it. When in the match day thread, at half time I said McLean would've had a similar game (2 touches, holding the ball against, one behind I think), yet we gave up a tonne of draft capital for him... -
Game Day 2026 Round 08 Swans v Demons – 3 May @ SCG 3:15pm
I don't think so, no, and I do think Curnow has more tickets to spend. But I'm just a bit disappointed in him. I think it comes to me not rating him when he was at Carlton, to how much we're paying him. I just would like him to play a crucial role in a close victory, which in fairness is tough... -
Game Day 2026 Round 08 Swans v Demons – 3 May @ SCG 3:15pm
Rosas might be our best forward, absolutely love watching him play. -
Game Day 2026 Round 08 Swans v Demons – 3 May @ SCG 3:15pm
I'm just saying for today, he's had 2 disposals and a holding the ball. I do think McLean could have that game. We'll see if by the end of the game Charlie proves me wrong. -
Game Day 2026 Round 08 Swans v Demons – 3 May @ SCG 3:15pm
Sorry, yeah, misworded it, Meant to say disadvantage. I actually think Curnow not being very good is better for the team than having a player like Buddy who was too good for the team (I would like the to think that we could've used Buddy better, but we never really did). But it's a bit of... -
Game Day 2026 Round 08 Swans v Demons – 3 May @ SCG 3:15pm
The question isn't was Curnow worth it, but if McLean would play a better game, and right now I think he would. -
Game Day 2026 Round 08 Swans v Demons – 3 May @ SCG 3:15pm
Curnow is probably the worst players on the ground right now. Don't know if he's helping structerly just with his name or something, but I want him to actually touch the ball. I mean, the advantage of Buddy, is that we would kick to Buddy even when he was outnumbered, whereas with Curnow, I... -
Autopsy Swans get their kicks by 66
It just always feels like something happens when Rosas gets the ball. -

No Oppo Supporters 2025 AFL General Discussion
Next year they'll bring in a new game at the end of the year, grand finalists vs wooden spoons for the true premiership. Got us pegged to be the first to lose that one. -
No Oppo Supporters 2025 AFL General Discussion
I got a friend in the AFL. Said the main reason wildcard was brought in is so the Swans can lose to a team lower on the ladder in the grandfinal. -

Delisted 8: Ben "Goblin" Hobbs - Delisted - 20/10
Hey guys, been out of Australia for a few years and only watched the Swans games (yes I was up at 5am last year), Just remembered being really impressed with Hobbs first year or so, what happened? Im getting the idea that he didnt take a step up, but what did he need to improve? Sorry if this...- Words: 65

Im so sorry that you guys have to deal with Adelaide. Had a similar thing happen with Dawson, and I think we needed the pick more than you guys did. Adelaide are scum on the trading table.- Words: 37

Nothing is as bad as it seems, nothing is as good. We'll know a lot April next year. -
List Mgmt. 2025 Draft & Trade Thread - Picks 31, 32, 42, 60 and 71
One big problem of ours (and has been for a while) is contested marking. I am looking forward to hopefully Serong and Curnow papering over the cracks in that regard. -
List Mgmt. 2025 Draft & Trade Thread - Picks 31, 32, 42, 60 and 71
We've painted ourselves into a corner a bit here, because we can't really commit on Serong until we offload Florent. -

Just watched it, two quick handballs left to a sharp kick inside 50 which led to a goal. Think we would've preferred a dump kick from Sicily.
