    Not a very exciting night for us but a smart move to go for a couple of long term prospects.

    Never heard of Alex Brown before tonight but wow his style is very similar to Alex Johnson from the footage on the AFL website

    He can but since he nominated for this one too can't see why a club who wants him On their senior. Listed didn't pick him up tonight

    Kinda liked the look of Josh Tynan, but thankful the Fev madness didn't eventuate.

    Really good reports on Lockyer on the other site from west australians in the drafting thread, comparing his agression at the ball to Jack Darling although without the physical development

    They seem to think he has the capability to impact at senior level in year 1, although i presume we are looking longer term

    GWS have 6 or so picks left....all at the top of the PSD so at the very least they save a few weeks wages by not taking players now!

    So one pick in the PSD either Campbell Heath or someone else. It will be interesting to see if they invite anyone for preseason training

    Yeah, you're right (of course). I can never remember which of those clubs drafted younger brother and which took our old one.

    Tonight's drafting certainly looks like planning for the post-Ted/Marty/LRT era.

    Also suggests they are thinking of Walsh more as a forward at this stage than a defender.

    Didn't realise they were related. So there's a little coterie of ex-Swans (mainly reserves) at other clubs, I wonder if any of them will reall come back to haunt us: Lewis Johnston (Adelaide) Sam Rowe (Carlton) Peter Faulks (Fremantle) Jon Simpkin (Geelong) Simon Phillips (Port Adelaide) Pat Veszpremi (Western Bulldogs)

    I think we're pretty safe to be honest.

    Not to mention premiership heroes Schneider, Dempster, Buchs & Jolly.
