    Don't begrudge Bevo casting his eye around - it's not obvious to me however whose best 22 he does fit in.

      If you cannot compete for the premiership, it's better to be young and exciting than middle-aged and dowdy.

              Still to be reported anywhere in the print media or on commercial radio.

              None of the threads on Bigfooty are carrying anything other the Swans board repeating what was posted on here.

              We can comfortably say that while you may have heard something it may just have been said in jest on the Draft Talk Radio and you missed the context in what was said.

                  Too much like asking for injury for me ORB.
                  I like Primmy's Itzy, for Itzy Bitzy Spida.

                    Sydney is expected to make a final play today for Brisbane Lion Justin Sherman. It is believed Swans officials may even fly to Brisbane to try to talk Sherman out of a move to the Bulldogs.

                    So far he has refused to talk to the Swans, continually stressing he would prefer a three-year deal at the Dogs over four years in Sydney.

                        I like it that there is a win/win going on with Itzy and Patty. Patty deserves a break, and I hope it all works ou for him, and Itzy will already know what's on the radar here, he had a brother who wanted to come here in the first place.

                        With Bevo, I don't want to see him go. I can understand that he feels let down, and I was NOT pleased he was dropped for the finals, and yes I agree he is a bit of a Benny Matthews player, not a lot of imagination or creativity, but a whole lot of heart and effort. I hope he stays.

                        Once again the Swans dealers are working in harmony and not playing mind games with the other clubs, but being straight up. That's My club.

                              An interesting quote from Vesz in Emma Quayle's gushing article in the Age:

                              ''I just think that you can fit in some places and not others. I thought when I got an opportunity to play seniors I did well, but I was never left in there long enough to get comfortable out on the field,'' he told The Age from his holiday in Bali.
                              Young guns in win-win deal

                              I accept that the player may be at fault, but I think this is also the flip side of us recycling so many players. The likes of Kennedy, McGlynn etc are brought in as 'best 22' players - and these players usually respond because they feel wanted and not under the same level of pressure to prove themselves as AFL players. There seems to be a higher bar set for kids we draft and Vesz's comment that he never felt comfortable in the seniors is pretty concerning. I am sure the coaches have their reasons, just hope the same mistake isn't made with Johnston!

                                Poor little Vez. We should have got him a safety blanket so he could feel like a big boy playing in the seniors.
