News Swans Talk in the Media 2019

Same as Longmire was going to Norf and Darcy Moore was coming to Sydney?

Jones is nearly out and he can go

Jones is nearly out and he can go

So not a "done deal"?

McCartin soaking up tips during defensive experiment

Originally drafted as a forward, Sydney Swans young gun Tom McCartin is starting to find his feet as a defender in the AFL.

Horse moves McCartin to back of the field to replicate his own early track work.

 

[bedford]

So not a "done deal"?

Not yet , but he's expendable , has pace , but no footy brain.

 

[Wayne Swan]

Fair enough, at least he should be honest about it and not go on about the missing home malarkey. I’d respect that more.

What will Carlton offer us?

Charlie Cameron for pick 12 so Papley is worth Carlton's pick 11, seems about right to me for a young player with a year to run on his contract

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Plugger just on SEN. Hope there is a highlight/podcast.

[The Gong]

If	you're sitting 15th on the ladder but your worst loss is by 42 points and five of your defeats have been by one, two, seven, seven again, and 10 points ...
then	come national draft time it's going to be an unexpected bonus.

Sliding Doors: IF anyone knows where the 2018 Demons went ... THEN

The missing 2018 Demons, Don Pyke's boxing craft, Dyson Heppell's foot, Trent Cotchin's hammie, and more in the Doors' spotlight

www.afl.com.au

Actually agree with Barrett on this one. With a very young side we've dipped but haven't crashed and are not very far off the pace. Get ourselves a nice little top 4 draft pick and the future looks positive.

 

[The King!]

wish he understood the sliding doors concept

 

[robbieando]

wish he understood the sliding doors concept

One of your best King

 

[Cadsky]

wish he understood the sliding doors concept

It goes a little something like this

IF you understand my gibberish

THEN well done to you cos it's got me ****ed

 

[The Gong]

IF you think I'm using the correct terminology for this column

THEN you are sorely mistaken

Interesting Beatson thinks he’d make a good inside mid, his speed and agility suggests he’d be suited outside I would’ve thought. I guess he’s the recruiter, not the coach though!

After his last couple of weeks in the twos on the inside I might even be inclined to agree with him.

I reckon speed and agility is pretty good to have on the inside too

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Spot on.

He also played a bit on the outside in the past fortnight. Has the pace and grunt to do both roles. How well at the top level remains to be seen, but his selection is richly deserved.

 

[Mick Oxlong]

After his last couple of weeks in the twos on the inside I might even be inclined to agree with him.

Big boys (AFL), little boys (NEAFL). I’d just be happy for him to succeed tbh.

Maybe, pace doesn’t help when you’re surrounded though.

Longmire says Swans' vision is strictly 2020

Thanks .... but really, what else can he say.

 

[Olian]

Thanks .... but really, what else can he say.

What would you like him to say?

 

[The King!]

What would you like him to say?

umpires stunk

we got this list management wrong

etc

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

What would you like him to say?

A whole lot more than he does.
