Corrosive favouritism, or any issue at a club really, shows up the most when being challenged most I'd have thought.

Re evidence, it is just what I have heard from sources I consider to be reliable. You don't have to believe them, but I do.

You get 44 blokes together every week for just about every week of the year working closely side by side and tell me there are no corrosiveness. It is par for the course.

Corrosive favouritism

Sounds terrible!
I guess thats why so many players want to get traded out from the Swans...
oh wait, no players ask for a trade out, the Swans are famous for that, they must be doing something right

 

[Punts]

According to Trade Radio we are lurking in the background

Sounds like a Black Adder Script

Paid off for them

While we still struggling for player like that

Except for the ones who ask for a trade like Dawson, Nankervis, Mitchell, Hewett, Mumford, Papley, Aliir (maybe), Parker etc

Sure. How much it affects the form and selection of the team is what matters though.

100% especially if you keep a leader for too long.

Players become the locker room they walk into, not saying we have a poor culture,. but whoever we draft is walking into whatever current standards and practices we have

Wow! He just lost my respect...

But surely this is the wrong thread for this shit?

Why did he lose your respect? He was being honest. what he said happened. Our players played with the heart of a pea. They were shite. I am sick of seeing these belting in Grand Finals. Anyone who accepts this should be drummed out of the club immediately. This is not only not acceptable it is an abomination.

I have followed Glenelg in the SANFL all my life. My Uncle captained them to a Premiership, their first in 1934. We won another 39 years later, in 1973. I was there. But we had lost badly in 69 & basically like this Swans 2016 in 1970. We then lost again in '75, '77, '81, '82, '87, '88, '90 & '92.

Mind you win in '85 & '86. The next premiership was in 2019, then 2023 & 2024. But my point is we were on the end of some hidings & were known as the Bridesmaids. Because we never got to the alter to claim the Grail.

After all those losses I am sick of playing bridesmaids. I want to be claiming the Grail. I want to see huge success. Neil Kerley was a great coach but he was only able to get Glenelg 1 premiership in over 10 years, like Longmire fe coached 4 bridesmaids.

The difference is you are a punter/supporter, and he is a great of the club...

If you can't see the difference, then that's on you... I didn't ask you or anyone else to support my view, and I don't apologise for holding it.

, but for the right price , at least it is something I guess.


I still wouldn't mind them throwing Rohan a lifeline if he would come back with a young family.

We need players who can play next year imo.

I don't know who, wont pretend to have any inside info, but a few 18 year old flankers won't move the needle.

We need to look at stringer.

We can't go around again with the three average talls we have.

The so called experts say they can't understand where Stringer would fit into GWS forward line. But my guess is he won't. But he will fit into their mids. He is a bull in the mids & I always wondered why Don's coaches rarely play him there. He still kicks goals when resting and when on all he is even more dangerous.

I think GWS or Swans if smart would play him as the second Green/Heeney

But the thought of giving anything to Essendon annoys me

 

[Roadrunner]

Cool. Feel free to meep meep yourself out of here.

I will meep meep back myself in here. I live in Sydney.

Would he replace any of them? or would he play in the same fwd line as them like Parker. I think the latter...

You would only pay him a quarter to a half. Half the the time he would be unfit. Half the time he would not give a shit.
He has a lot of talent. But he lacks the professionalism to go to the next level.

Who would have guessed it. Oliver willing to take massive pay cut to get to Geelong

If we can move up to 13 or higher

I would love Alex T or Armstrong

Alex T would be great cause I think he could step right into the swans and replace Rampe kinda like a AJ

I put him ahead of Armstrong

Because there are a few other quality forwards in the 20s and 30s like a Gerryn who probably will go 30s

If we can move up to p13 and nab another pick in the late 20s early 30s

We could get great KPD and KPF

Otherwise we could keep our current picks and if we can get another in the late 20s early 30s

We can pick up hybrid Forward KPF and KPD

Who would have guessed it. Oliver willing to take massive pay cut to get to Geelong

With packages under the table trade.

 

[Punts]

GWS gonna get stringer for pick 53 according to morris

 

[Benmacca33]

GWS gonna get stringer for pick 53

Cheap as chips
Can’t lose on that trade
Disappointing we didn’t have a crack

Here is the latest ESPN draft rankings (October):

AFL Draft: Bolters emerge as combine takes centre stage

One of the most important weekends on the junior footy calendar has been run and won, with standout performances littered across the combine making ESPN's draft board for October a little clearer.

www.espn.com.au

Seems like there is a lot of half forwards and talls ranked near our early picks.

I wouldn't mind taking Hamish Davis as a medium forward and the best available tall forward.

Hamish Davis seems to have good endurance, has played WAFL and been regularly kicking goals. If he played in our forward line. He seems like he has got the tank to apply pressure, used to playing against mature bodies and is also a goal threat.

Sydney is my second team beside North. Just want to know more about the Swan.
