2 Years in a row Leo has had bad hamstring injuries. It would be fair to expect being another year older and another year slower, his ability to keep up will sorely test the hammies again.
Just play him at FF.

I see the risks but I have to say that without Leo at the helm of the back 6 this year, we looked lost back there. We need another year out of Leo even if all he does is teaches C. Bolton, LRT, someone to marshall and control the defense. In addition, this Canadian guy is going to need someone like Leo if we want to put him in the backline at some stage, even if it's as a ruckman falling back.

That is very bad news. For those who think he had an OK year he gave away around the most frees in the league I understand, and what about all the goals he gave away from direct mistakes in possession.
There is no point having an 'experienced' defender around with a year like he has had, you may as well have a youngster in playing dopey football.

He can play until he's 75 if he wants.
Thanks for single-handledly winning Swans the 2005 premiership, Leo.
Pretty good news I think. He's definately slowed down and would get pasted on the oppositions top forward much of the time, but I didn't think he was outside the top 22. A guy that did so much for us in the past should be able to choose his time of retirement as long as he's contributing, and I think on the whole Leaping still is.
I agree with others though when they say if he's really slumping in form he should be sent to the reserves.
