Totally agree he's a 1st class knob
How many more times do we have to hear that the Swans are the hardest running 2 way midfield. Maybe it has something to do with half their games on an oval thats 20 metres shorter than others, makes it easier to get up and back doesnt it

Considering he still gets a paycheck from them for their underage academy, be fairly easy to make a case for conflict of interest.

Had a real crack tonight but just not up to it.


Yep season over, the JJ injury gives Lewis a shot to prove himself at AFL level.

I think our form has been ok the last 3-4 weeks, much better than the first half of the year thats for sure. Intensity, tackling and skill level is much higher but we still cant fashion any type of FWD line capable of kicking a winning score. Hartigan was ok first up.

Still a few positives from the year in regards to a few younger players showing signs they will be handy players mowing FWD, but still a very very dissapointing year!
