    Based on Champion Data so make of that what you will. I know some of us have strong opinions on that.

    Teams with the deepest list:
    GWS then Carlton, Magpies, Melbourne and the Lions make up the top 5.

    Swans come in at 7th which I think is a reasonable assessment given the state of our list. Crows are 6th🤮

    Depth analysis points: 38

    Top 10:     3, Top 11-30 11, Top 31-50: 7, Total: 21

    Defenders – Top 10: 1, Top 11-30: 3, Top 31-50: 2

    Midfielders – Top 10: 1, 11-30: 5, 31-50: 3

    Forwards – Top 10: 1, 11-30: 3, 31-50: 2

    Top 10 players: Errol Gulden (1st – wing), Isaac Heeney (4th – gen fwd), Jake Lloyd (8th – gen def)


    The Swans are waiting on a key forward to pop.

    Logan McDonald (27th), Lance Franklin (31st) and Joel Amartey (34th) were only mid-table for key forwards this year, while Hayden McLean was classified as a ruck and ranked 19th.

    Franklin has retired, but as the other young forwards continue to grow they will have plenty of support across the field, including from a dominant Errol Gulden on the wing.

    Where will Brodie Grundy land in these rankings by season’s end now he is the No. 1 ruck again?

    • Assessment of Draw - but it seems purely based on where the previous team finished. I'd like a stats guru to provide some further clarity & add in Home vs Away data on this I reckon.

    Ripper chat this is. Brodie seems like he is absolutely loving life in Sydney and if you give it a listen, details alot about the move up there and reasonings behind it.

    Is it possible for this signing to be underrated? I genuinely think it is.

    • For us it points to all the forwards and asks who will step up. I'm hoping McLean gets more time because he's getting better every game.

    • Bit weird reading Leon Cameron talk about the Swans now in his new role:tongueoutv1:

    Why Swans footy boss expects young forward to continue getting “better and better”

    “He's had a really good pre-season.”
    www.sen.com.au www.sen.com.au

    Sam Reid article - paywalled

    “I was open with the club about that, that I wanted to go again. And they were really honest with me and said we’ll see how you go with the rehab. And if I had hiccups in the rehab and it didn’t go according to plan, it probably wouldn’t have looked like getting that extra year."
