2. Is is unusual for the Swans to be doing football drills this time of the year?

Wasn't at all what I meant but I can see how my comment could be interpreted that way.Id be happy if we just went with the initial face value and be ecstatic our superstar is back looking trim, taught and terrific without making up some drama none of us can confirm

Hi,
The pre-season program is the same as last year, M, W, F running and ball work. T, T gym, wrestling, ball handling skills.
Beatsons perspective on growing bodys was good tooI've been enjoying Beatson's draft reviews from the last few seasons on the Swans site.
Ronke's was interesting, he basically confirmed that his struggles this year were basically all in his head, dealing with confidence and opposition attention.

kicking 5 a few games later was not bad if he was cursed hahathat 7 goal game was a bit of a curse in a way for him, put more pressure on

big fan of Ronke's.. It looked like he ran out of puff towards the end of 2018 - I put that down to it being his first year.
2019 - looked lacking in confidence (Beatson just said he was injured, which didn't help) but was coming good towards the end.
Would love to see him kick 30+ and tackle his heart out in 2020

Yeah, the surgeon was lancing the boil on his butt but slipped and caused a serious injury. He got the sack.Is there a second part to this story?
I'd be happy for him to kick a goal/game and put some real forward pressure on, consistently so he gets some confidence and can build from there.I just thought he was trying too hard to be clever, probably in an effort to replicate his 7-goal form, rather than relying on the basics that actually got him there. So wasn't a surprising second season for him given human nature and all..
I liked what he had to say about Ling and Stoddart. If those two can break through this year it'll be a bonus. Both have some good speed. Stoddart has had the big haircut that shouts "take me serious".Beatsons perspective on growing bodys was good too
Both Ronke and Haywood had injuries which contributed to their form
Interesting his comment on the development of back musculature.I liked what he had to say about Ling and Stoddart. If those two can break through this year it'll be a bonus. Both have some good speed. Stoddart has had the big haircut that shouts "take me serious".
That's kinda the role too Kingy. Small forwards (in fact, any key fwd) can be up & down a bit I reckon.goes missing a lot, interesting year, hope he can get more involved

On reflection, and listening to Beatson, I probably judged Ronke a bit harshly this season.That's kinda the role too Kingy. Small forwards (in fact, any key fwd) can be up & down a bit I reckon.

I feel as though it will be harder for him in 2020 though.
fu** me, it's 20 years since New Years 2000! I felt like I'd waited a lifetime for that night.
i watched the 2005 semi final last quarter
only ablett jr still playing and its hard to believe thats 15 years ago
obviously it is but damn,
I've seen no photos of Ling at training.Keen to hear how our injured players are getting on particularly Ling and Naismith. Im hoping they are in full training.
Years fly its been 8yrs and counting since our last flag almost a decade
