Player Watch #7 Harry Cunningham: 200 Games for the Red & White!

[Kennedy Parker]

Harry Cunningham

Player Profile
Harry Cunningham is one of the quickest players at the Sydney Swans, is clean by hand and foot and can play in defence, on a wing and in the forward line. The 2012 draftee was in blistering form over the opening seven rounds of the 2019 campaign, before injury limited him to just two games over the remainder of the season, so expect him to be hungry for a comeback 2020 year. Draft history: 2012 Rookie Draft selection (Sydney) No. 93; 2012 AFL Draft rookie elevation (Sydney) selection No. 107

Hopefully Harry the C gets up for a home celebration of his 200th, remembering he got short-changed for his 150 due to Covid restrictions.

Was 2-3 weeks I think. So maybe Lions, more likely Dogs (at home).

"is expected to miss 2-3 weeks."

 

[JackHiscoxWasFast]

Always plays high perecentage footy. No fancy handballs or dinky kicks. Get ball / kick ball. See player / tackle or corral player.

Must have one of the lowest Clanger stats for the swans.

 

[GoTheSwannies]

I rate Cunningham highly. Just does the right things so gives you confidence when he has the ball. He's also great defensively. Great role player for the team.

 

[MF]

Get back soon Harry. We need you.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

I swear players become better when they are injured

I just love that Cunningham has FINALLY got himself to a place where he is straight back into the 22 after an injury. It may not seem like much of a big deal with other players but to me it's emblematic of how far Cunningham has come and how valuable he's made himself to our team.

Congrats on 200 games Harry!!

[caesar88]

Why am I not surprised Lloyd and Cunningham are best mates. Can you imagine two nicer blokes. I bet they don't even talk shit about anyone over pints

I remember him as a half forward or winger and he was constantly in and out of the side. There a few better small defenders. He has extreme pace and years of experience. Very valuable member of the side.

 

[sataris]

Does anyone else remember the time when he and Towers were battling for the same role?

 

[mcs095]

Champion. My favourite goal of his:

One of my favourite days at the footy. Great trip to the Adelaide Oval, a big win, and if I remember rightly I had a cheeky $20 or $30 on a 39+ win, which paid for a decent chunk of the weekend!

 

[caesar88]

Does anyone else remember the time when he and Towers were battling for the same role?

No but can we expect to read about it in chapter 11 of your Harry C autobiography when it comes out?

 

[Ticky009]

We've had what some would call greater players make it to 200 - but Harry is probably the best person we've had make it to 200. Does whatever the teams needs him to be without an ego in sight.

Under rated by those outside of the Swans faithful but we know the value he brings. Have a great game old son.
