Shame DOK never got a run seniors due to his injuries..
Surprised by ryan brabs though..
though i dont relly know enough about them whether it was warranted or not -
Massive call on Daniel O'keefe that draft pick really hurts now.
Brabazon was expected and Laidlaw is unlucky but it was down to his body in the end and it just didn't give him a chance.
Maybe O'Keefe could be re-listed through the rookie draft with us.
Just leaves Playfair as to whether he can get over his hamstring issues and play a role next year.

Disappointed that Laidlaw and O'Keefe have been given the chop.
Would like to see Playfair de-listed now.Bloods

hmm i probably would of given 1 more year to Laidlaw. I'm sure he'll get a few nibbles from other clubs or a rookie shot with us.
DOK will go down with Josh Willoughby as a failed 1st rounder. It hurts because we could of gotten Kurt Tippett or Mitch Brown with that pick.

Bummer. I think I am going to have to give away watching the ressies because you get too attached to some of these players. I am still getting over Bruce getting the flick last year. And now Laidlaw

Tough time of year. Still the kids have achieved more on the footy field by being a part of the Swans than I could have ever hoped for.
Would really have liked DOK to come good. Maybe he will relisted and become a Cinderella
BTW: pick #15 2006
won't it be a disappointment if pick #14 ends up like this in a few yearsComment

That just shows you how much of a lottery the draft is.
I think the hit rate is probably roughly the same across all clubs.
Still, I wouldn't be surprised to see one or two of them get picked up again in the rookie draft, or late in the national draft (a notable player in that category was Amon Buchanan!!). We have to leave our options open at this stage... and if there is still space, they might be lucky enough to get another guernsey.
177th Senior AFL Match - Round 4, 2009 - Sydney vs Carlton, SCG. This is obviously out of date. I suppose I'll update it once I could be bothered sitting down with the fixture and working it out....

I'm with you Liz. You will them on, but ..... no matter how hard you try up in the stands, it doesn't always come together.
I could see Braba was trying his heart out, he just didn't have the next level, but I shall miss the bright face and the calls Braba braba braba!! Matty L doesn't surprise me too much, he kept breaking and DOK had the goods, but I think the bigtime was a bit too, well, Big. But if they were going to redraft, I think it would be DOK.
We can console ourselves with them keeping Nipper Gordon though. And Taylor G.If you've never jumped from one couch to the other to save yourself from lava then you didn't have a childhoodComment

Can the list experts please advise how many vacancies this now leaves us?
Probably not surprising. O'Keefe had 3 years to make it didn't he? Still I think he was worth persevering with compared to Playfair.
