    And it seems he can kick with BOTH feet! Do we have anyone else who is double sided? I can't remember.

    I'm happy. Stuey looked like a cat with the cream, and I trust his judgement any day of the week.

      Well someone has to take over after the Captain retires!

            Stolen from a rival, but a nice interview on Adelaide radio after the draft this morning.

              Thank's for that. Sounds like a nice kid, as they all generally do at this stage. Don't you just LOVE the internet! Even a few years ago we couldn't have had all this immediate communication and information. Say what you will about emails from Nigeria wanting me to claim millions of dollars, grr, I will put up with it just so I can have this level of technology. Taa.

                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)

                  Or McVeigh. Looks quite a bit like McVeigh in the clips - decent pace without being electric, mostly "outside" but able to win his own ball too. Some profiles mention his excellent (left foot) kicking and elite decision making. So for now lets pretend he's McVeigh and Malceski rolled into one.

                          Yes it does.

                          LRT is L1
                          Johnston is L2.

                            Perhaps we can call them "Power up" and "Trick modifier".
                            I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
                            We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

                              Writing off Johnstone already?

                              On another note, I saw that Maxfield has said that the Swans staff are confident Dan Hannebery will play over 200 games. That's very good to hear!
