As a matter of interest who wrote the article?

The amount of lies men tell would decrease significantly if woman stopped asking questions.
Seeing him train reinforces Keenan's view a little.
I have no prob with his height, but he seems a typical Irish recruit with his kicking..but don't forget Tadgh got the knack beautifully eventually. Hopefully this kid will keep improving it as well.
It's a big step from VFL to A grade...the ease with which Teddy and a couple of defenders has beaten him in one outs makes me think he has a way to go.
I saw a fair bit of him last year as well and on that form there is no way we should have given up 2 draft picks. Unless he has improved heaps over summer he would be a long way behind Spangher, White, Seaby & even Pyke as a forward option.
I know there are differences to top flight AFL but geez he looked good in the International Rules series at the end of last year. I try not to get too excited by new recruits but this guy looks like he has great athleticism and potential. If he has been on another team's list for a couple of years, we wouldn't have recruited him so aggressively to play him in the NEAFL. I think he'll get a goodly amount of game time this year and I wouldn't expect miracles, but hopefully he can develop nicely.
He'll also be nice and cheap on Dream Team and will most likely be in my side there this year.
Tommy looks a likely lad and he will develop in time. The bigger blokes take a little longer. Must be something about their brain developing slower cos it has a lot more territory to cover than little blokeBut he will get there and I think be a very good third tall for us both up and back.
Only saw Tommy in the Int Rules so it's hard for me to comment on his AFL prospects. However our recruiters don't make too many clangers so I'll put my faith in them.

cloke is a good example.........it takes time even in a great squad/team

Off-topic, but has to be mentioned, is Crackers' praise in that column for our seamless coaching succession. It worked so well that it has barely been commented on.
Contrast that with the number of coaches who were axed last year and the amusingly botched Collingwood coaching handover. Just one more sign of how well the Swans are run.
