Amid all the Cousins hysteria, as Swans fans let's not overlook the fact that Nick Davis didn't get a Lions guernsey today. As someone who appreciated his efforts for our club, on balance, I am disappointed to see the AFL door closed on such a talented and exciting player.
Its a bit like Schneider. I really enjoyed him playing for St. Kilda this year and he showed he can really play. I missed him in Red and White. Roos might say it was for the best of both parties, but I'm still not sure.
But unlike Schneider, the Davis career is now over. Its a bit sad, but I see his Dad was quoted as saying that his son should be respected: that he'd played in a premiership and played more games than he had. That's a good way to look at it.
Anyway, I thought our site should acknowledge Davis's career and wish him well. I see he's thinking of that ridiculous gridiron code. I'm unlikely to watch, but I thank him for the good times and wish him well.
