Universal Love Opposition player you'd love to poach each round.

[Skeparovic]

Ok so this has probably been done before however i thought it'd be an interesting thread for fans to nominate each round one player from the opposite team you'd love to poach and have in swans team.
Round 3 vs GWS:
I'm going to nominate big Mummy as I've missed his trademark bullocking / aggression around the stoppages. Ruck is still an area swans have struggled in since his departure and Pyke just doesn't have the chest of a thoroughbred like Mummy, nor could he win a sausage eating contest.

 

[The King!]

Harry Taylor.

From GWS?

 

[The King!]

Ill catch up

Round 1- I hate essendon but id take Cale Hooker for defence
Round 2- tempting to take Ryder
Round 3 Phil Davis

 

[The King!]

Geelong

We are playing gws

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

We are playing gws

Oops should read the title thread more properly

 

[Millky95]

Round 1 Hooker
Round 2 Grey or Ryder
Round 3 Cameron. Just love the look about that kid even though I know our forward line is fine

 

[Skeparovic]

Great idea with backdating post to round 1 so i'll do the same also:
Round 1 - Carlisle (in defence though)
Round 2 - Gray (guy is an absolute gun)
Round 3 - Mumford

 

[Kummerspeck]

Round 1: Carlisle or Hurley for defence and because Hurley brings an edge in the haircut department that we haven't had since Hannebery's weird shaved head deal against Collingwood at home in (I think) 2011.

Round 2: Wingard for a forward role

Round 3: Mummy. Easy.

 

[Millky95]

Round 2: Wingard for a forward role

Forgot about him. Could use a nice small forward

Agreed with all three. Taking back Mumford would be just lovely.

I'll go with targets who are actually slightly realistic, making the exercise something a bit more than "who is the opposition's most valuable player".

Round 1 - I nominated Martin Gleeson in my preview but * are too smart to leave him in the reserves. Maybe Colyer or one of the Merretts considering Longmire's obsession with foot speed.

Round 2 - Cam O'Shea. A 23yo 197cm defender outside of Port's best 22 who has AFL experience and gets a lot of the ball.

Round 3 - James Stewart. 198cm key forward who will struggle to get a look in with Patton, Cameron, Tomlinson and McCarthy around.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

I'll catch up a bit:

1. Zach Merrett
2. Chad Wingard....GWS really butchered that decision.
3. Even though he isn't playing, Adam Tomlinson

 

[ponsdale]

1. Watson - just love his courage and work rate
2. Winguard - because I'd love to see Horse try and keep a small forward out of the team
3. Shiel - I was super impressed with his efforts last week

 

[Ticky009]

Heh. Misread the title, thought it said 'punch' not poach. Back to the drawing board for me

 

[Millky95]

Go make that a thread

 

[S120]

Round 2 - Cam O'Shea. A 23yo 197cm defender outside of Port's best 22 who has AFL experience and gets a lot of the ball.

No way is Cam O'Shea 197cm.

 

[scaryness]

Round 1 - Jake Carlisle
Round 2 - Ollie Wines
Round 3 - Shane Mumford

 

[Lakeside Swan]

Rance would be the perfect player for us. Too expensive unfortunately.

Like the tweak on the idea and I'd agree with you on your Round 3 nomination of James Stuart or alternatively Will Hoskin-Elliott

Came out a year or two ago that during the pre-draft interviews Wingard told GWS straight up if they drafted him he'd leave at the end of his contract. So GWS took Hoskin-Elliot instead.

Might not have been a terrible call in the long-run. Wingard's definitely better right now, but WHS could be something else. Kid looks like a gun footballer.

You take both. That was an awful call. You back your system to make the players feel welcome

 

[The King!]

4. Fyfe- unrealistic and we have similar sized players but hey ill shoehorn him in

 

[strauchanie59]

Neale from Freo would be a good get as well.

 

[Millky95]

Pav in his prime...

I wouldn't mind Ballentyne if he pulled his head in
