    Always great to find a best 22 player out of nowhere. Well done to a young guy that is red and white through and through. He really must pinch himself every so often to remind him he really is living his boyhood dream. More upside to come with Tom as well.

    With every team basically having the same number of picks, to rise up the ladder you need to be able to out draft them and out trade them. We've done both of these very well in the recent past which is why we have risen.

    Also got high hopes for guys coming through like O'Riordan, Dawson etc that are mid/late draft picks or rookies.

    �It�s a bit more than an apprentice�s wages,� Papley told The Daily Telegraph. "I don�t call footy a job because I love doing it.�

    �I always wanted to play in the AFL for the Swans, I dreamt about it and grew up running around in the back yard pretending I was Brett Kirk. It is a dream come true and I�m very happy to sign on to 2018.�
