Swallow would be a perfect fit at North - another one paced midfielder who can't kick!
Another one for the meatgrinders
I know that seems funny to you but it is incredibly hard to keep players in Northern States. GC is like a vortex, very tricky market and don't envy their position.

Seems to have (had?) that elite first five metres that Andrew had before his achilles but agree he doesn't really fill the obvious gap we have.

giving us a priority pick is pretty pointless. we'd just pick some vic kid who'd play out his min 2 year rookie contract and head back home anyway.![]()
Thank god for Tony Cochrane. Pushing kids out the door one at a time.North burned again by David. Now it's time to start the oh we didn't want him anyway posts
BoomerSo if Swallow did elect to leave and nominate North what big name player are the Kangaroos giving up? I would expect the Suns will want a midfielder.
On the plus side, WC didn't throw in the towel with a week to go in the season.Every away win that we have had is better than West Coasts, because you have zero. Keep trying though.
All that matters is David Swallow will be at North.
Keep recruiting your nuffies like Jetta and Giles . Waite, Dal Santo and Higgins will do us fine.

with any luck we'll get a few good ones this year in bowes, scheer and williams. possibly a few more next year who have shown a bit playing in our neafl team.Need a productive Northern Academy
I expect they'd want Dumont as a starting point, which bothers me as I think he will be better than Ziebell and Cunnington long term.
If swallow says he wants to get to north it happens they take what we give them, by all means we arnt gonna GONIN dry but it won't be first round pick.Agree Dumont looks very promising but i reckon Suns will still want more than just him.

Yeah that's why I said as a starting point. O'Meara is a different beast, but I can't see us trading the farm for Swallow given there's a good chance we could get him 12 months later for less. I expect he'll see out the final 12 months of his deal at Metricon.
Apparently you'd have to also recruit Andrew Swallow's missus.I wouldn't mind us having a dip at Swallow. More likely to North though.
How so, he is contracted for next year so the Suns hold all the cards.If swallow says he wants to get to north it happens they take what we give them, by all means we arnt gonna GONIN dry but it won't be first round pick.
If we can agree on players they like and we will be likely to give and future pick, it will all work out.
