News Swans Talk in the Media: 2021

[Ticky009]

So thanks to the awesome Kennedy Parker you will notice a sticky post at the top of the pages now. This link will take you directly to the Swans YouTube channel which features interviews etc.

 

[bedford]

exactly what i thought ... same old mainstream footy ignorance
not mentioning mills just makes a fool of whoever wrote this ... even in that limited space, he had to get a mention if they were going to highlight parker/kennedy and the 'next generation' as the key to sydney's next season ...

They are paid for putting out content =fact .

 

[bedford]

They are exactly the same as BF , most have NFI on all boards

Outside of the swans board, no-one knows how COLA works.

Hell there are swans supporters who think the 50m at the SCG aren't 50m.

Can't fix stupid.

 

[bedford]

On SEN now is an interview with Greg Miller , called what if and the what if is that what would have happened if Wayne Carey and Horse played for Sydney. Always knew a bit , but this is an amazing listen . Worth someone putting it up if possible .

 

[Ticky009]

Reid, Ronke & O'Connor have all received 1 year extensions.

Reid to continue on in 2022

Sam Reid will play on into a twelfth season with the Sydney Swans, with the versatile forward agreeing to a 1-year contract extension for 2022. Small forward Ben Ronke and defender Barry O’Connor have also signed 1-year contract extensions.

on Twitter just put up a picture of himself 21 years ago waiting for the draft , he has a North polo on as they said they will pick him . History is Ted got drafted to the Bombers and then had to give the North polo back

So that just leaves Clarke as the only one unsigned?

Hope it stays that way

For those wondering Ted went at pick 27 to the Bombers.

North picked Dylan Smith (at 6), Daniel Motlop (8), Daniel Harris (14) and Drew Petrie at 23 prior to Ted's selection.
They also took Sav Rocca later at pick 30.

and a pick or two , what wasn't known was that he had agreed to terms with St .Scum . History might not have been made in 05 !

I've posted the story in our former players thread;

Mega Thread - The Former Player Thread: Part 2

I guess people who didn't follow it at the time, more recent fans, book fans who don't follow footy. (The latter I think being the really interesting demographic in this case because the book is showing the potential to break out of the sporting books niche. Lots of chat on bookclub sites along...

Pretty sure that was a paint-by-numbers article they got the work experience kid to do so that they could have something to refresh the home page.

Who is the best AFL player that came through the rookie draft?

“Only 4 per cent of rookies will play 200 games, he played 240.”

www.sen.com.au

bit of well deserved recognition for Captain Kirk..
Rampe, Lloyd not far behind

Embodied the bloods culture, hard work and no ego. Got the very best out of his body and his tenacity was a joy to watch. An inspirational clubman.

Interesting. I wonder over what distance this was measured. Thought J Mac could have been up there given he was an elite 400m runner.

Elite represent their country , good represent their school.

Fair enough, his 400m times don’t compare to a Jack Hiscox
