What do the Swans need next year to be a premiership force again ?

What they need is simple:
Get with the flamin' times and play aggressive direct footy and not the old tempo style crap which is now ancient history. Take a leaf out of collingwood's book and make excellent players out of youngsters and get some speed of half back to get the ball going forward quickly like geelong and port did so well.
* 1-2 good midfielders
* a tall strong defender
oh and get gary jnr, jonny brown, juddy and maybe another ruckman better than everitt
dump/trade crouch, matthews, barry, j bolton and a couple of othersComment

1. A fully fit backline. Kennelly, LRT, Barry. Maybe recruit another defender.
2. Hall showing controlled aggression. Not some peace loving hippy with a crook groin. If you are going to give away a free, make it worthwhile; a free for an elbow to the head is a better result than a pinky on the shoulder. Preferably get him on the lead, marking on the chest around 50 and motoring up the wing if he is being caned. His 2005 form.
3. Goodes firing for a full season. The "knock me down, I get up", no brain farts Goodes. His 2003 form.
4. Midfield shakeup. -taggers +ball users. Maybe recruit a midfielder of the Williams or Schwass standard (or release Malceski or Kennelly).
5. Nick Davis cut some slack to lair a bit.
6. Jolly and Spida to stay injury free. Get Donkey firing or @@@@ him off.
And we could finish top 4 and have a crack.
Sweet daydreams.
We're good enough to go around again, no worries. Have faith.Damn that Sorcerer! Twenty gold pieces and I'm wankered on rohypnol!Comment

Dump / trade : Mathews, MCVEIGH, Bevan. And possibly J Bolton or Fosdyke or Schneider.
Should retire. Leaper, Crouch
Buy some skill.
Buy some pace.
Play either Malceski or Tiger in midfield...or both, ie one on either wing.
Play on as much as possible.
Play more direct.
etc etc..Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to pause and reflect... MTComment

What the Swans need to do
Find a fast midfielder that can kick long.
A big defender, or push spia back instead of going forward after the tap.
Change the game plan to kick long to what, on paper, is one of the best forward lines in the business.
Stop trying to pin point a forward, it allows the opposition too much time to flood back.
Still a great side that needs tweeking with a few new faces.
