    Lance Franklin

    Not only he has a chance to kick 100 goals this year, he is fast becoming my bet for the Brownlow Medal. He is starring tonight.

    Has gone past Brown and Judd and is now the best player in the comp IMO.

    He'd have to perform that consistently week in, week out if the umps are going to award him the Midfielders' Medal.
    I only support one team: The SYDNEY SWANS!!!!!

    Agree. Gablett's the one I'd rather have. Buddy won't be allowed to do that well against us.
    He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

    I'm not sure who we have that can stop him.

    LRT? Craig Bolton?

    Everyone was musing nervously that we have nobody to match up on Brown either. We completely towelled him up.

    The key to stop him getting too involved is to stifle the way the ball gets down to him. The Swans are the best team in the league I reckon as closing down and frustrating other teams when they are trying to bring the ball downfield.

    Lance is a different proposition. Fast, agile and can kick a goal from anywhere within F50m or just outside. He ran a ring around B2 last time they matched up..... and LRT on Franklin

    But you're right, the Swans need to shut down their midfield.
