Swift set to replace Staker!!!!!

[bigburger]

Giving your age away a bit there BB.

I am 21 .

Nah I just mean the fact that Todd was good enough to come back from serious knee injury and still perform very well.

He was never as good though.

Its hillarious watching those highlights, they look like little kids back then even though it was only a few years ago. Rich (pretty sure its Rich) especially looks tiny compared to what he looks like now.

What's with all of the McGinnity love? I have read a few posts in different threads (Round 7 teams ect.) that he should be given a run. I don't want to sound negative, but from what I have seen there would be a few players before him IMO, eg. Houlihan, Schofield, McNamara.

He seems to be on everyones mind, and I think it is due to the Maxwell bump more than anything. I have only seen him on the televised Claremont games, but he has hardly set the world alight.

Gun.

If we are up at half time by a "winnable" margin set him lose through the middle.

Why is he a gun in your opinion?

I haven't seen enough of him to state that he should come in to the team. He would be well behind other players IMO.

He's not a gun, an honest hard at it tagger who will most likely become our next option as a defensive mid should Stenglien continue to decline

Honestly.. I dont know. Its a cop out but I think its just that I have a gut feeling that he is going to become a top level stopper in the future. Or mabye I just like his name? Its a pretty cool name.

He hasent set the WAFL world on fire but has had a few set backs, mostly the set back his jaw has now from where it used to sit on his face. My prediction is that he wont break into the team and do a Swift but he will be around for the future and become our No.1 stopper.

I like McGinnity, he has the ability to play AFL. His form has been ok since coming back to WAFL, he does not get enough touches but he uses the ball well. Claremont don't exactly give the ball to the best option, when Blackwell gets 33 touches you're side should be in trouble.

$200 says hansen keeps his spot even though its blatently obvious hes lost it

No He has had his chance. They maybe really lateral and put one of the backmen up front.

I will throw a Fridge through Subiaco HQ in protest.

 

[wce4premiership]

I shall definitely be keeping an eye on him.

 

[archiemoses]

He's be a great in for Rosa.

 

[Eagle Blue and Gold]

Swift looks more AFL ready that Hill so let see what he's got !!!!1

 

[thesmallprint]

Swift wasn't mentioned in the West article today so I could have prematurely jizzed my pants. We'll find out in <5 hours though.

From the article :

Scott Selwood has worked his way into some excellent form at WAFL level with Perth and will also be considered, while Claremont teenager Tom Swift was also mentioned by Worsfold as a possible inclusion.

You missed it.

Ok thanks! Great news, especially that Woosha actually mentioned him.

Had the flue so who knows how he will play this week end.

 

[lewigie]

Didn't deserve to be in before Houlihan.

Who didn't even get in.

 

[wce4premiership]

Damn i was looking forward to this so much. I've been waiting since pre-season.

Hopefully I see his debut next week in Sydney then (chalk it up as a loss in case you hadn't already).

 

[greennick]

I wonder how many more similar threads we will have this year. I hope he comes in later on though and holds his spot. Will be a good DT cash cow downgrade target.
