You never know, Nick Davis might get re picked in the draft by the Swans a la Amon Buchanan in 2003 and Heath James in 2004. Personally, I very much doubt it.

Can't say that I'm entirely surprised. Davo could be brilliant on his day(05 Semi!) but his attitude toward football this year just left a lot to be desired and man does not live on past glory forever.
Sad day at my house. The Swan Gnomes are wearing black armbands!
My Nick Davis player badge is now a collectors item.
Good luck Davo. You are a really nice guy, always happy to have a chat and I loved your exuberance in playing your footy.
Thanks for that 13-odd minutes of the most amazing and superb football I've ever seen.

But at least the end is in sight!!!
Mixed feelings...sad to see one of the few Tasmanian links with the club go, but it looked as though it was inevitable.
He may not have had the right attitude,Connelly, but he did give us one of the best quarters of football that I often watch when I am feeling down and need a pickmeup..."Unbelievable" Thank you Nick..that is better than any amount of Prozac.

Really disappointed - and what am i supposed to do with my number 2 guernsey now?!?
It has nothing to do with his ability or talent anymore .... it's was all political in the end.
Very Sad
Any Swans Fan that Boos Davis while playing for another Club against Swannies, ought to be Shot!!!
I look back at the 05 Semi & think to myself,Without his Brilliance that night we all would still be Starving for that allusive Premiership Win.
That's how i feel anyways.
Your right it had nothing to do with his talent (he had it in bucket loads), but stop smoking the grass it had nothing to with politics but Nick's reluctance to actually to do anything that looked like hard work.
But that is okay, the club gave him plenty of chances to get his attitude right, do the hard work and actually put in like the other 650 odd senior listed players in the AFL and he didn't or couldn't.
Sad to see him go, but has no one but himself to blame.
