So it is true, the Sydney Swans FC is the love child of the AFL.
They get given a cost of living allowance (COLA) as an add on to its salary cap and use it to buy two power forwards over 2 consecutive years. Power forwards don't grow on trees yet the manipulation of the rules by the AFL has allowed one club to get two of them in in consecutive years. And now the Swans and its fans are sitting back laughing, hardly believing their luck.
I'm hardly surprised, in years to come, the Swans footy team will resemble an AA team.
