From a marketing/match day perspective, do feel like the club needs to do more to capitalise on the guy having one of the great individual starts to season in the modern game’s history. I mean it’s great when these things happen organically, but sometimes you can give them a little nudge along...

Gold Coast seemed to give away that 50 against Blakey trying to do exactly that - attempting to backpedal out of the protected area, but had already been called stand. other teams are clearly wise to it

I took it to be the opposite - that Heeney has had some quite significant injuries that would’ve sidelined most other players, but he’s managed to find a way to contribute.

It’s him and Bont this season. (Should be Dawson too, if the Crows weren’t wasting him)

Swans have a pretty difficult draw from here on Carlton Cats Pies Port away Brisbane away Giants twice Dogs twice Freo twice Crows away Saints away Bombers away Not saying we lose them all or anything, but can see the Swans dropping plenty out of that group Only North, Hawks and Crows @...

That first dropped mark was off the back of one of the better kicks I can remember seeing.

I still think he’ll play this year (And he’ll be good)

I remember when the great mooted JPK replacement was Harry Marsh

He would be wasted in club not in contention. He’d barely touch the ball without a big role change. Waste of their money and his time/talents.

Only saw the 4th quarter, so can’t comment on how he went overall - BUT I was pleasantly surprised to see him popping up in some important plays in the last term. Only other game I can remember him doing that was against the Demons a year or two back

That last goal where he was being chased in the 50 and just dabbed it with his left was class. Just strolled in and made it look effortless - crazy to think how many other guys would’ve had to work hard to get around to snap on their right and potentially get caught

Brother I’m not going to watch a full replay of a 5 goal win against the likely wooden spooner, which is what history records this game as.

Yeah I only caught the 4th, and it looked like a much better team comfortably getting the job done. Looking at the scoring breakdown, I can imagine if I’d sat through the 2nd quarter, I’d feel very differently. But equally if it looks like we squandered the chance to put on about 6 goals in 15...

come on now

Which bit?

Weird that he keeps being handed games (and a 3 year contract). Still can’t see what the club clearly thinks they see.

Looking at his posting history, it’s Konstanty’s dad or brother or uncle or something. soeaking of, didn’f Wicks’s dad post here a bit, too? Stay away, fellas - you’re on a hiding to nothing reading our dribble.

I don’t think he’s lazy. If he was, I don’t think he’s be getting picked. I think he’s probably touching the limits of his aerobic potential. I’m sure there’s probably a few percentage points of improvement left to be eked out, but just like some guys lack the frame to put on much muscle, or...

Ladhams in for Amartey. Although I read that Ladhams was awful in the VFL, which would make him a simple like-for-like replacement rather than an upgrade.

I just don’t see how the side is expected to carry this guy that can play one good quarter a game.

He’s just got short clavicles so no shoulders. He’s otherwise pretty robustly built these days.

I think you guys are being naive if you think they wouldn’t do this if a West Coast/Fremantle GF looked to be on the cards, too.

It was pretty convenient that story came to light in a week the Swans should have been focussing on grand final preparation - the mental load/emotional labour required for interstate grand final teams is higher. And as a progressive club Sydney players are particularly affected by racialist...

Just robbing us of our moment to shine. VFL HQ saw the possibility of an all-NSW grand final and decided to burn the whole thing down rather than let that come to pass.

No surprise the VFL mafi- sorry, media decide to run this the moment the two Sydney teams move into premiership favouritism. You can’t fight city hall.

This is getting a bit silly. It’s 2.5 rounds in and there have been plenty of May/June premiers over the journey

Just saw the Hind attempt at an elbow. Is Brad Scott right in the head?

Sailing against the wind here a bit, but I still reckon there’s a fair bit of potential there, which is good, because he’ll more than likely have to step up at some point this season.

Yeah he cannot kick to save his life, and every time he’s required to do something beyond the most basic disposal, it’s pretty clear he was playing basketball until he was 20. That’s fine, though, it’s why god invented backs.

Swans tried some of that adolescent tough stuff last season (nothing as egregious as the late hits from Wright and Draper) and it was pretty embarrassing to watch. World’s difference from that sort of malarkey and actually just physically dominating your opponent like the Cats did to us in the GF.
