Great for Smith, but should he be ahead of O'Dwyer? Some info on Smith would be just dandy!:thumbsu:
Smith plays in the midfield for the reserves, though I could imagine him playing as a smallish defender / flanker as well. He's quite slight but wins the hard ball and uses it very well. He isn't as flashy as O'Dwyer but has some class about him nonetheless.

I think his elevation is well-deserved and yes, IMO, he does deserve it ahead of O'Dwyer at this stage.

He had claims to the Alex J medal in last year's ACTAFL GF, won by Brabazon (though Braba was very very good in that game too).

The hardest tip for me for the week.
How do you go past Brisbane at home?
However, you guys nearly beat St.Kilda down here (amazing effort), smashed Port Adelaide at home (another great effort beating the Runner Up of last year) and now i think you will pull it off against Brisbane.

I think Barry will take Bradshaw and Bolton will take Brown with Richards and co. stepping it an nearly every contest.
This is when the run off the backline from Kennelly, Mattner, Jack becomes vital.

Swans in a close one for me.

Also, thoughts on H.Grundy?

Try emailing the membership department rather than the website. That address is probably just for admin matters.

It may not be a membership issue, per se, but those are the people tasked with communicating with members so you might get some kind of response out of them. Alternatively you could try emailing Steve Brassel (who I presume is still media manager?)

But it's also a content and media related issue.

Just because it asks that only website related enquiries are sent to the website address, that doesn't mean that website related enquiries can't be sent to others also.

My experience is that the media team and the membership team are pretty good at responding to questions. The website address probably goes to a load of Telstra geeks who couldn't give a toss about whether the Swans injury list is up to date.

i rang the membership team and they said it is for the website people who ARE in the swans office and they would pass the concerns on to them.
is that good enough

Can someone tell me what time the game really starts tonight. the Age in Melbourne is saying 18:10, the AFL website is saying 19:10 (Assume that is Brisbane time) and the herald sun is saying 7.10 pm when all its times are EDS and fox are saying there going live at 20:00.

The reason being is I hate watching our games in delay, particularly when it is advertised as live on fox.

Well done to the Swans on another win at the Gabba. I can't bring myself to say any more nice things than that.

BTW, our mascot >>>>> than yours.
