not really new to AFL. been following for a bit over four years now. Im well aware of how good mumford is. Hence the complete and utter excitedness i felt when i heard he had signed with GWS but i was merely just making fun of the swans for letting him go and that his breakout year would involve a lot of kids wanting to pass the ball to him
Number37
Anyhow, have a Winfield 25.

Has played very few games the past 2 years.
If the knees are good his form against Collingwood last year showed just how good he still is.
If Goodes wins the Brownlow we will be premiers in a canter.

My hope is that Rohan & Jetta have breakout years - or in Jetta's case, another breakout year. If those two can average over 15 touches in 20+ games next year we will win the flag.
Add to that B Jack - if he can play 10-15 games and get 15 touches per game we will be a tough side to play against. Teams will never get the ball out of our forward 50

I more I think about it the more I hope he does come on in 2014 , as you say he has the height and electric speed and another pre season , plus 23 now. We can only hope , plus we probably shouldn't of had that pick so would be a huge bonus if he does come on.

Massive call, but yer he has a lot of potential
I thought Bird made a huge jump in 2013 off the back of finally getting a good pre-season. He's a very talented midfielder who ran with some of the league's best, ruined their party and snagged a few goals of his own. Another good pre-season and he may well find even more room for improvement.
Rohan's luck of snagging a few games in 2013 (I don't think he'd have been risked except for our injuries) takes a lot of pressure off him. He'll take a bundle of self-belief into the pre-season that his leg is well able to withstand the rigours of AFL. That's got to give him huge heart.
I agree Brandon Jack will continue to improve this year but not sure of a break out as he'll find it much harder to get game time (if our forward line remains intact).
A Swans supporter making a league jibe? Really?
I also hope Jack surpasses Mcglynn, I think he could do it with his defensive pressure - kid is a fiesty tackler. When he becomes more confident I think he will have much more natural goal sense as well, has the ability to slot them from everywhere like his brother.

McGlynn has work experience and hardness.
BJack has pace and X-factor.
I know which i prefer in the forward line. BJack is much more creative and unpredictable. Might not displace McGlynn in the early season, but he'll be pushing for a spot by mid-season, and be pretty hard to leave out.

I'm hoping that Gary Rohan has one. He is is that keen that a good year will mean that enthusiasm will spread. Also a new ruckman whoever that may be. Pike can't do it all on his own and I don't think Tippett will be able to provide enough support
Parker for sure - had good starts last two years just needs to string it together.

I lke the thinking around Reid, throw in Parker to really step up with no Jude and become part of the AA conversation.
When some w***er comes on here telling us how good Mumford is, like we don't already know, then yeah.
Deal with it.
Dealing with it fine, just thought it was a bit ironic is all.

Bird is the quiet achiever, always there but never noticed. I noticed people baying for his blood only to be told he had a really good season last year and he did. He just goes about his business the same way Kirkie used to.
