    Whilst his size will certainly be an asset to the team in the future when his body matures, its probably also been one of the main reason for his previous unsoundness . Race horses like him are much the same . I guess he's not the 'hardened athletic' type build wise just yet, even though he is a big boy - so perhaps being that big and gangly, and not really physically matured, or co-coordinated yet, is most of the problem .

    you obviously don't realise how bloody irritating it is - not to mention plain unpleasant - to have someone sprouting "it doesn't matter 'cos so and so will be going to Richmond, it's a done deal," etc....You don't know, mate. Get over yourself. Stop trying to bully people with "I'm right you're wrong," type of posts when your opinion is just as fallible as everyone elses. If you're stating what you believe then say "I reckon etc etc," or "according to the Age etc, etc," I wonder if you live your life trying to make other people wrong all the time, and I wonder (for your sake) if you have thought about how that feels for the other people in your life. Seriously.

    Cheers
    Thanks mate! Well said.

    The fact that this is a board implies that people are stating opinions, is it really necessary for me to preface every sentence with "I believe" and "I think"?

    Do I know with a 100% certainty that Solomon will be playing with Richmond next year? No. But I'd be surprised if he wasn't. I do know that he WONT be at Sydney for various logical reasons

    It is though interesting that you've resorted to personal/snide comments, I THINK that reflects on you more than me. I THINK this would reflect your inadequacies, rather than mine... Seriously

    Shame you find it snide. It's not....meanwhile back at the football.

    There has been an ominous silence about Ryan's future. I get the feeling we are going to snaffle someone good, if for no other reason than we have crept under everyone's radar on the field, so why not of it? Amazing that in the rather lengthy "gossip" list in the Age they couldn't even be bothered to find out which of our players are uncontracted. Obviously our recruiting staff are pretty good at not being seen when they have meetings with opposition players and officials.

    It is understood that Sydney defender Jason Saddington may be used as part of a trade by the Swans for Carlton's priority pick, No.2 overall, in next month's national draft.
    Wow, that would be some trade, and we won't be losing any picks in the first 2 round to them either if it happened. Maybe Saddo and Nicks for pick #2.

    Goodness you guys are bit harsh reckoning players are too old at 26/27. Cast your minds back to the trade period at the end of season 1997... a young homesick lad by the name of Shannon Grant left us and who did we get to replace him? yes an older chap (29 in the November) by the name of Wayne Schwass. I seem to recollect he was a good player for the Swans!
    We need a combination of experience and young upcoming players. Don't write off some of these players because of their ages. Just look at a player by the name of Alistair Lynch.
    I wouldn't mind seeing Bode's name on our playing list
