One more dd gag and I will be forced to act.

Shit mate, your too intelligent for Home and Away.

 

[thylacine60]

[Wickzki]

it's my hair isn't it? tell me!

We'd be crazy to bring in McGovern, Lukosius and Ben Silvagni.

If there is any truth to the McGovern rumours I would suggest Lukosius wont be who we are picking with pick 1, if we retain it at all.

 

[BrisbaneCFC]

I would have thought if we are getting Shiel and/or Hanners, it would make more sense to take Lukosius.

I would suggest not if the McGovern rumours are correct. Unless we are going to go all Adelaide and play 4 talls up forward.

 

[Funk]

Zero bidding war as he would choose 1 club

Usually works that way.

But he is not OOC - so will be interesting to see what happens.

Oh and don't forget the extremely important Sam Collins!

 

[Blue and Blue]

I know what you mean, players can be fast sprinters and still look slow with just how long it takes them to get the ball on their boot. I've pretty much got the exact opposite opinion though - I don't see Thomas as having slow actions, but very much do see it in Jack & think it's his big weakness.

Fisher is the flip side - looks incredibly quick because he takes an eyeblink to kick the ball, yet is a slower sprinter than both Thomas & Jack.

yes ..pity he took his time and picked out LOB in front of goal....much better if he threw it on the boot for a point or worse..forgive my sarcasm

Think if we are trading for McGovern other pieces would be involved and we will not have pick 1

 

[therubbernub]

Hannebury for a future 3rd wouldn't be so bad.

So what is the truth about Hannebury? Is he rooted by his OP/groin issue...never to play top level footy again? Or is he injured and playing injured- hence his performance fall.
Surely if he cant recover from his current injuries we dont want him at any price . But if his injuries are recoverable then he would be a great mentor to some young midfielders

Very much doubt his body is done.
He will be back

 

[slashin_velvet]

The only other things that gives the pp for Shiel any credibility is:
1) FA compensation factors in all ins and outs. If gws have multiple fa players, their compo will be considered in totality. Trading Shiel this year, and having an fa leave next year, could double their return
2) if gws do have salary cap issues, it makes sense that the AFL gives us a pp to get him because then he's effectively free (no different to us getting him as a free agent next year). But it also saves their prize clubs ass, and gives us the helping hand we need.

I hope the McGovern rumours aren't true, unless we get him for a song.

Not sure we can risk it with 5/6 players already filling spots on our roster who can't get on the park regularly

Jeez you got me. Yes it's true I believe Jack's weakness is not throwing the ball on his boot Mitch Robinson style often enough. Well interpreted

Hannebery‘s injury issues are being completely over blown. Has indeed struggled with groin issues over the past 18 months however they are behind him. However, as a result his fitness this year was the worst it’s been since his draft year (due to complete rest and no training). On his return game he hurt his calf however played the following weeks under duress before really injuring it badly. With a full pre-season I am expecting him to return back to his gut-running best.

Currently has no interest in leaving the Swans.

Are you his player manager?

Yeah I would think that would be the case.

Reliable.

Lukosious is ours to take if we want him.

The Tigers finished 13th in 2016 and bought in Nankervis, Prestia (remember us all laughing when they gave up pick 6?) and Caddy and won the flag the next year.

I hear you. And yes we loved to laugh at Richmond..It deadened the pain of our own misfortune a bit . Not laughing now. But I think they also had 6 or 7 years behind them ....we have two

I guess it depends on the cost or what's involved. I said earlier I reckon there may be something to these rumours, as I have seen four or five different people in the last couple of weeks post rumours about him through who they speak to. If I recall correctly, I believe it was B70 who seemed to confirm the same rumour, although it was swiftly removed. I guess we will find out.

That will disappoint the Swans BF posters who mostly seem to want him gone, if what you are saying is correct.
