Player Sponsorship Pick 3 - Callum Mills - Swans Board Sponsored - Rd 16 Rising Star Nominee

That was paying $3000 to 1? It is actually a chance...what's the cash out option ATM?
Just over 10,000/1. Think it was something like $9 x $8 x $15 x10.

$60 cash out at the moment. I need Hannebery and Mills to have a few big games. Swans and Franklin are shoe ins.

Yeh look I've got no idea what I was thinking when I was doing the maths...had to edit my original post to save face!

I was excited about Heeney after his first year and I was bemused at the people saying that Mills was better. But in hindsight they were right, this kid is something else. Mind you Heeney's not that bad either.
really hard to see where mills improves from here... might sound arrogant but-

kicking-elite
marking-elite
decision making -very good
tackling-very good
courage-crazy/elite
reads the play-elite

I wouldn't say his kicking is elite but s**t...he's a ******* gun! I don't think I've EVER seen someone so good at such a young age and I mean EVER!

Edit: Tim Watson was pretty good in his era

especially when he seems to be playing a really refined, clinical game from him. Hasnt had a chance to show his creative flare yet
And I wouldn't be surprised if Longmire is about to switch things up with Heeney and Mills. Just an inclination.

Hahahaha!!! Reputation isn't class and none of those had it in their first year...Bontempelli (don't call him that, you sound like a commentating flog) kick goal of the year and that is all! He is better than those you mentioned however, hence...I don't think I've ever seen someone so good at such a young age!

Geez massive call, Selwood's first year was phenomenal and so was Judd's.

They played in their midfield position though, didn't they? Where as Mills has been brilliant in an unfamiliar position.

Edit: have realised overuse of 'position' ...my post now reads like some porn thread:eek::oops:

Smokey for the AA squad? One of our most consistent players of the year.
No but you could gauge an opinion if Foxtel called our games because a few of those guys are on the panel. Can't believe we've been smashed on channel 7 although the commentary by the lesser likes has been more than tolerable!

The Geelong boys love him. Mooney & Ling.

I think by the end of his career he will be in the mix as the greatest ever swan. Big call but he is all class, played in a position that was considered an area of weakness in the team and he has made it his own.

Without a doubt the best first season of any player ive seen at sydney.
 
That's fair enough but this kid will be better, mark my word! Bontempelli is severely overrated IMO

He's been that good at half back I reckon he will probably stay there for another season or 2 which is frustrating, I want to see him unleashed in the midfield ASAP!
