Dane Swan 300 Games

[BLS World Wide]

hopefully if he does make it to 300 the club can get STAR to make a special edition 'Swanny' Jersey with tattoo designs intergrated into it.

I reckon I will never again see another player like swanny. One of a kind!

 

[Saintly Viewed]

Nope. Final year in 2016. Thought he dropped off a fair bit towards the end of 2015

All but a certaintly now to mAke 2017 now
If you are of the opinion he wont, one thing im certain about is you will pick the wrong option.

You jest surely

Would love to see him get to 300. It'll be touch and go, but if anyone deserves to get there, its Swanny. His list of achievements at Collingwood will have him in the very top echelon of players at the club. He is already, but 300 games would just top it off imo.

Like Cloke he has good genetics, his old man Billy played 302 VFA games retiring when he was 38. Hopefully Swan keeps playing good footy, as another year like 2014 would likely see him pull the pin.

It's actually an offence to post a picture of a Hawthorn jumper.

Mr Contrary strikes again. Swan had 39 possessions against Sydney in round 20. He was pretty quiet against Richmond (who wasn't) and pick up a knock against Geelong.

I hope swamy gets to 321. Would be nice seeing as he polls so well in the Brownlow most years.

Ugly colours surely the ugliest

The don't argue against Essendon is the goat

 

[Shellz]

He'll probably retire on 299 because it's unique.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Can't see why he won't play on in 2017. But I hope it's not for the glory of the personal milestone but rather because his form is good enough for a premiership tilt

 

[Raveneyes]

Grew up watching Port Melbourne games, and my favourite player was BIlly Swan, so was stoked when we got Dane.
Followed him closely from day one, and like many fans, he quickly became my favourite player .

Would love to see Dane finish on over 300 games. There's no reason he can't. He plays well up forward, and can cameo in the guts.

Will be gutted when he calls it a day.

An absolute champion.

Don Bradman played a test innings stranded on 299 not out
(He also made 2 triple centurues, handy player)

Swanny did say he might play on past his contract, and I hope he does he's a champion.

My pants just got tighter!

2:12 one of my favourite goals.

Just great watching the highlights

 

[suspect footskills]

All depends if Collingwood are a premiership threat in 2017.

Depends on Swan being in premiership mode whether we threaten or not IMO lol...

There's a few nice ones in there, that's for sure. I'm still loving the one around 3:20 when he's run through that pack on Anzac day and swiped away one of the Essendon boys trying to bring him to ground. I don't think many people realise how hard it would be to pull that off and not lose your balance or speed, or end
up on your arse as a result.

I think most players who pull off a palm like that generally have to change directions at the very least, to basically just run through him is just unbelievable. Reminds of my junior footy where there would be 2 players who just run through everybody else.

 

[jackcass]

Was that in the members forum? I missed that. Good news anyhoo, he was a handful up there.

So Coleman plus Brownlow but no mention of a Norm Smith, wheres the optimism?

EDIT: Also I wasn't aware Hine has a say in such things, thought the match committee was only coaches plus maybe Balme

Not in the 15.24 of his presentation I watched. No mention of Swan playing forward, no mention of trading Witts.

I think Swanny could play on in 2017 but would expect him to make that call based on his form in 2016.

Yeah lol... I started really liking soccer all of a sudden in year 9 after I played against this one kid who I was convinced was lying about his age and must have been kept back 5 or so years.
I dont think l even went to kick the footy at lunchtime on that oval again during highschool lol.
The only thing that lessened the shame was recognising him running round for West Coast a few years later.

Quality trolling right there!!
