I live in Victoria doesn’t mean I’ll post on the Kangaroos board

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

Everyone generally hates us

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

At some point in time we went from having a very good "footy club" culture to now trying to emulate "corporate" culture as though that is the benchmark of professionalism to aspire to.

I remain unconvinced that a "corporate culture" is right for footy players.

I may stand to be corrected but I doubt it.

Last few premiers have all been big on "footy club" culture.

We act superior adopting this approach to culture but I don't actually think we are.

This is why i would love someone like Dom Brew just to come into the club and wear his heart on his sleeve and get in and give it a crack

Trade period should be one day. Dragging this out over a week for a few trades.

 

[Tedeski]

Getting players in the right mindset

That’s on the coaches.
Not sure why you need psychologists on the bench. Save the soft cap for coaches that can do the job. It’s AFL for Christ’s sake.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Pies will be back playing finals if they can get all their targets.

Yikes

[Kbroome]

If Sydney are coming so hard for 13 they must have someone they really like, because its very likely at 19 (22) and 22 (26) that they will get Hynes and a Whitlock brother

 

[Roadrunner]

Don't trade with Collingwood

RMC have updated Cochran's draft profile:

Joel Cochran Draft Profile

Mobile key defender Joel Cochran is the top Swans Academy prospect this year, boasting high level endurance and intercept marking ability.

central.rookieme.com

STRENGTHS:

• Endurance
• Intercept marking
• Mobility
• Rebounding
• Versatility
• Vertical leap

IMPROVEMENTS:

• Composure
• Kicking on the run

 

[RedBloodBlackSwan]

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

Xavier Richards.

Out of all of those I am still most cut up about Xavier. Literally thought nothing was better than us

 

[Kiama Chris]

Cochran did a couple of very natural left foot kicks. Very agile. Still pretty skinny.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

On Finn, Surely you can't go top 8 in this draft averaging 11.5 touches as a mid in the championship?
If you can't get it against the best kids, you are NF chance in the AFL.
Stylish player....pick around 12.

Doesn't look any better than the kid who sent to the Saints last year around there, and this is supposed to be a superior draft.

He is the biggest boom/bust mid in the top 10. Someone will take the chance then again a bloke named Bontempelli was seen as one. He’d be a risk but could easily be the best mid in the draft.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

I cannot stand Jake Stringer, 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.

If it’s let’s say the pick 44 we get for Parker it’s a Hail Mary not only we can take, we SHOULD take

Agree if it's essentially nothing then may as well.

 

[RedBloodBlackSwan]

Why would Collingwood care what happens to a pick after they trade it? The trade either made sense or it didn’t. If you worry about the other clubs, you are nuts.

That said, why don’t we offer Collingwood our two picks for their pick 13, and then they on trade our best pick to Port.

Finally, did I miss something? I thought GC had pick 13 - did they trade it to Collingwood?

He can't kick? Well that seals it. Gonna be a future Swans Hall of Fame defender!

It's all over the place!

First we're looking at Maginness (189cm mid/fwd), then "a late swing" at Garcia (178cm small fwd), and now we're trying to get up to pick 13 for who knows who!!!

If you want to know who we want pick 13 for, just look at the names being ranked in the 40s and 50s in all the phantom drafts.

It's GC's pick at the moment, but it's wrapped up in the whole Houston saga

Seems the current 'deal' is they'll give GC's pick 13, 23 and Joe Richards to PA for Houston, but they don't want Port then trading us 13

Which I interpret as there's a player they know we're going after that they possibly also want?
