When watching the game, was kind of sad to see what's happened to Grand Final hero Nick Malceski. Get that he went up there for huge money but apart from that, it's been a disaster for him. Got thinking that in recent years, we've got the better in terms of player movement in that players seem to play better footy while with us.

Tried to come up with a list of players post 1996 who excelled after leaving the Swans
*Peter Caven
*Scott Stevens
*Paul Licuria
*Anthony Rocca/Shannon Grant (truth be told they were never staying but still putting them here)
*Sean Dempster (still have no idea why we gave away a Father Son premiership player - anyone know)
*Shane Biggs
