We have to cut $600k just to be under the cap, let alone have a 'war chest'

The salary cap is being raised in a year or 2, that number is reality is much lower due to raise in the cap
They FINALLY had a bad year with injuries - they have had a dream run, no other team has been as lucky as they have. Finally it actually has an impact, just like he does for the other teams in the comp.

We were hobbled with injuries entering the 2013 finals series. Arguably our best player on grand final day in 2012 has not played a game since.
But i do feel sorry for essendon. If it wasny for your injuries the past couple of years, we would have been talking about an essendom dynasty

Assuming a healthy Buddy, Parker, Jack, they're still a good chance for top 4 next year.

It's being raised for everyone you do realise.. not just the swans.
I may as well say it here.
Be ready for a surprise. We will have a very aggressive off season with our list.
We are the masters at doing the unthinkable!

Mumford when Geelong really needed him after Ottens.
Some Sydney supporters still living in the PEPSI funded clouds and pointing fingers at others.
Err, an oversight that anyone could have made.

What's the difference between "traded for/recruited" and "poached"?
As with the vast majority of our trades, only Gunston (who wanted to come home) and Gibbo were really poached, Burgoyne was a 2 way trade with Port looking to get early picks, Hale wasn't getting opportunity at North etc.
Dropping Mumford for the Grand Final after carrying the team for 18 rounds had nothing to do with his leaving the Cats either, I guess.
at the game, as one of many with free tickets I just wondered,
were the swans out coached? Why run your full forward in the ruck and rely an a storage game without any hint of a plan B.
also - stop giving away free tickets (I know its the AFL not the club) but who pays when there are so many give aways.

That's no-one's fault but your own.
There are growing rumours of a trade of Leuenburger and Tippett as Sydney desperately need salary cap relief and a ruckman.

The fact that Geelong could only offer him about $150k a season and Sydney were more than double that had a bit to do with it too.
So thats Sydneys fault Geelong couldnt offer a decent deal?
