      He's at the Swans retirement farm aka South Adelaide. Was picked up by the Kangas on their rookie list last year but didn't play a game with them

          I like that one, but I'd probably drop Kirk for Round.

          I'd love to see Browning in there. I would consider swapping him for Schwass.

          It's a tough choice between Dunkley and Carter.

            Fair calls NMW...I really find it hard to place Kirk across the years given his weaknesses...but?

              Where is Capper in the team? I know he was the main reason I started supporting the Swans when I was five

                Very good question.

                I think Luff must have done the skills coaching during the week based on the display in Geelong.

                  You are a total joke. A performance like that from the Swans and you choose to put the boot into, of all players, Troy Luff. Genius.

                        It's just an opinion you clown. Not everyone agrees with your constant bagging of Kirk but they don't get abusive about it.

                          had a stand named after him when STILL playing.

                            1. Capper was never that pretty
                            2. Capper never made it that far into the defensive half.

                              I only bag him when he kicks like a gimp or makes a smirking media appearance. It's not my fault it happens so often.

                                Just watch your tongue young man.
                                Luffy is a deadset legend, just leave it at that. You can have the Lockett end at the Dome, but what other Swan has a stand named after him on the wing?
                                And besides, you never know who might read your post...if I were you I'd hate it if Luffy ever did, he might seek you out at the next aftermatch...
                                "Davis...Davis has kicked 2...he snaps from 40...dont tell me, dont tell me, hes kicked a goal....unbelievable stuff from Nick Davis, can you believe this, he's kicked 3 final quarter goals and Swans are within 3 points..."
