    Mattner was a regular for Adelaide and BBB had a few good ones for the Saints...also Schwatta and Williams...but are we not going back that far?

Can't wait to absolutely belt them into the dust in September.

    We have done so well with few top picks used/actually making it to the top level.
    Yes I have been battling Gene for a few days. He doesn't like me very much.

    Gene only likes Geelong supporters.

    Have you noticed that in his attacks on the supposed "advantages" that the Swans get (COLA, academy being foremost in his regular Roar postings), where he claims he just wants an "equal" competition, he has avoided responding to comparisons with the father/son advantage from which Geelong has done very well?

    Yes - I have noticed that.

    If you pick up Tom Hawkins through the F/S rule you certainly don't need to buy a full forward.

    Gene loves playing the victim card ....

    Look at our pipeline:

    - Next season sees BJ, Zak, Heeney (ready to go from season 1 imo), Perris and Naismith raring to go.
    - Season after sees Abe and Mills plus whoever else develops

    All we need are some key defenders to add to the mix but as many here have said I see Reid moving down back eventually

    I think our defensive pipeline is in better shape than we realise:
    Mal - Biggs
    Shaw - Rohan
    Smith - Zac Jones
    Ted - AJ
    Grundy - X
    Dane - Dane.

    Biggs and Rohan are going to become the new Mal and Rhyce partnership, giving us run and driving kicks into the 50.

    AJ has already shown his worth and will come back.

    X has the right genes and will be a star in the same mould as his brother.

    Sam will be the jewel in the crown. Swinging back when we need him.

    Alir - will be our ruck man.

    Is AJ big enough to hold down a key position ?

    And if X follows his brothers progress, he wont be much good until he's 27.

    I think we need to be on the lookout for a tall key defender to replace Ted.

    Melbournes FRAWELY ?

    i dont put any belief in aj coming back. i HOPE he does. and I HOPE he will be the player that we remember. But I don't think any reliance or pressure should be put on the fella.
