The video on the Swans' site is gold as Bell tells his mum that he's debuting. I had a little cry myself. Love this club!
And here's the dance he referred to: https://www.instagram.com/p/B00Gkwqn...d=p18r1yzy407i.
I've said before - I have hopes for this young fella.
And I loved the video too.
He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)
What is the point of playing an experienced past it player? He can impact the youth in the reserves far better than taking a spot he does not deserve. Look this is not about playing youth for youth's sake. It is about developing our younger players to gel together and play as a coordinated unit. Hack is not part of the long term plan. His day has passed. He has been a great player but not anymore. He is the past.
We have nothing to lose playing youth now. We are not in the finals race. We should be looking to develop as many youngsters as possible to see what they can do. This is sensible strategy. What's more if it doesn't work we get better draft picks.

Fun. Though since his debut may have been depending on it, I was expecting the dance moves to be a little bit smoother. And I couldn't help noticing that James Rose was last to join the congratulatory circle. I suppose that he was thinking, 'If Belly is in, then that must mean....'
If Bell is in I guess that Amartey is not.
