Not even the best wing in our team (Gulden)Jmac close to the best wing in the comp
Haha!Should the Kirk Medal (not that i give a s**t about best on medals regular season) be renamed to add a GWS influence as well , like the Kirk- Folau Medal or whatever
Terrific crowds last two home games.Great crowd today for an all Sydney clash. Marketing team no longer need a star forward to draw a crowd. Helps that local players like Heeney and Gulden star.
Something the Victorian clubs lose sight with the academies.
From what I've seen in this reserves game so far, I think I'd prefer Fox to start and find someone else for the sub role - he has done some good things, but had some pretty iffy moments too. Edwards continues to impress me, but still feels very raw.I think Francis needs to come in next week for McCartin.
Yes we could have Blakey do the role but I don't want to lose Blakey's run and carry. Francis will help keep the team balance.
Thats good and all but McCartin will be a huge loss and hurts us for weeks while Brown gets a nice rest and GWS will hardly miss him.

Congrats on your win ladies and gents. You were the much better team and I have tipped you guys to make the GF this year.
Just thought I would provide some interesting stats in regards to the gaping experience gap between the 2 teams.

You guys are in the window and it truly showed today!
Again congrats on the big win
He stood up that’s for sureHow good is Melican?
He is not a like for like replacement, that's for sure. But I'd feel more confident with Fox in the defensive mix and someone else coming in to the 22, then I would feel picking Francis on current form. An interesting conundrum for the selectors coming up next week.Fox is good, definitely happy with having him in the best 22 but he really isn't a replacement for McCartin. Francis can be, albeit not quite as good.
Teams are definitely coming in hot and heavy against us.
That could be because they're threatened by us and want to try and make a statement, or because they think our hardness is a potential weak spot and they think they can exploit it.
Either way it's good to see we're overcoming it week on week. Would have to give the boys some confidence knowing they're withstanding a barrage of physicality coming their way.
Over the off-season as we were linked to Naughton, Ugle-Hagan, De Koning etc., kept reading about how the Swans need a marquee forward in the NSW market. I went to my one and only SCG game last year and I heard more hype for Heeney & Gulden than Nat Fyfe ever got at a Freo home game during his peak. They're legit hits.Great crowd today for an all Sydney clash. Marketing team no longer need a star forward to draw a crowd. Helps that local players like Heeney and Gulden star.

And larky he saidOnly Naughton was a legit offer confirmed by Beatson the rest is just BS.
