On The Couch Swans Talks:
1) 24:33mins in Nick Blakey named as one of the new Prototype Defenders. Rated 5th best player across the league (the rating system is advised in their discussion). Medium Key sized back influence in the game increasing

Quite interesting in light of the way we've been playing Melican and Hamling. The mobile medium backline seems to be the thing. It looks like that's how we'll go into round 1.

Your nickname suggests a certain unwillingness to afford freedoms to the subservient classes, oh great emperor!

This is veering off-topic now. We'll hash this out in the Senate.

Yoda should have won that fight.

No issue with blokes like Hodge having an opinion whether it's for us or not , he has been there !

so no one else can have an opinion? there goes bigfooty

Best case, worst case, most likely: How each club could fare in 2024

ESPN's Jake Michaels runs his eyes over every club and identifies the best possible, worst possible, and most likely scenarios for each in season 2024.

Thought this part was about spot on.. ps.. changed the number of finals wins from one to XX

Most likely: The Swans continue to set the standard for professionalism and consistency. They pick up where they left off late last year, never endure a three-game losing streak, and are in contention all year for the coveted double chance. They win XX finals to leave the fan base bullish about the future.

The Age running this history of Swans in Sydney. It's behind a paywall - if anyone reads it let us know if there's anything new.

The first step of Swans’ 40-year journey from outhouse to penthouse

When the Swans celebrated their first win in Sydney in 1982, they weren’t allowed to use the inside toilets at a lavish after-party. How times have changed.

Nothing to do with BF , it's so called experts on SEN , sorry you misread it Mr H

 

[RUNVS]

What do they expect Longmire to say?

"On paper our midfield is no where near as strong as it should be and I am worried it will be the reason why we lose against Melbourne"

Sportsday had the great Richard Colless on tonight ,at one stage he said something like there's no South or Sydney , it's just 1 club

They sound like make up names!

Jordon will debut for Swans on Thursday confirmed

I'm so happy for him, growing up a Swans fan it must be a dream come true. Hope he has an absolute killer game!

 

[mattpolo8]

[anotherletdown]

No, you can have an opinion. It just has to be the same as mine

This is veering off-topic now. We'll hash this out in the Senate.

Probably should try to get it all sorted before the 14th of this month, then.

What a great ide-s.!

 

[caesar88]

What a great ide-s.!

Et tu, Horace?

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Et tu, Horace?

Not there on the way to the Forum but was a mate of Brutus and fought with the good guys until I ran off to write poetry.

 

[dosser]

Et tu, Horace?

You shouldn't have tried to make yourself moderator for life!

Gawn v Grundy: Finally, The Next Round - The Mongrel Punt

As the Swans prepare to face the Demons in the season opener, there is a clash that has a story of its own. The Grundy v Gawn war is renewed

themongrelpunt.com

This is behind a paywall if you're not a subscriber. For those that can read it, it's a great preview of the 'battle within the battle' of Gawn v Grundy. There are some choice typos: "kockeyed", "borken down" and "bewteen" stuck out for me.

I don't expect Grundy to beat Gawn but it would be amazing if he could significantly lessen Gawn's impact. Gawn has traditionally torn us a new one.
