      I like the possibility of this one, the idea of commentators saying something along the lines of "the Hawks could really do with someone of his quality/ability right now" is quite satisfying.

          Parker, Parker, Parker

          If any injuries occur in the midfield.......well Luke will be johnny on the spot and ready to roll as an inside midfielder ..............He reminds be alot of a young michael voss or a sam mitchell........just born to play football and be in amongst the contest week to week !

          He is ready to rock at 18yrs of age !!...............only challenge for him will be getting an inside mid possie ahead of McVeigh, Bolton, ROK, Jack, Hannes, Kennedy........so many inside midfielders with that are proven now

          Rohan, Shaw and Smith will get alot more time in the midfield / backline rotation.............I am hoping that Rohan takes over from Kennellys role by end of this season...........Rooster is a jack out of the box and will become lethal interchanging from HBF and Wing

          Goodes to break 60 goals in a season ........first time in his career............thats right you heard it here first

          Swans 4th if Bradshaw plays half the season.......5th if he doesnt play at all

            Swans to at least reach a Preliminary Final.

            Hannebery to be the top Swan in the Brownlow.

            Goodes to retire, or play out his remaining time with GWS.

              Two top 10 draft picks at his age would warm the cockles!!!!!! Fingers crossed

                Swans fail to make any real impact in pre-season cup, yet again.

                Swans defy the predictions of EVERY expert tipster south of the border and play finals (yet again!)

                Swans, blessed by injury free run, embarrassed by wealth of talent available for finals.

                Swans take historic NEAFL/AFL Double!

                    Top 10 picks are OK (though we've had so few of them over the past decade that we'd barely know) but when you can find players like Jack, Reg, Smithy via the rookie list, or persuade clubs like Hawthorn to release excellent players for 3rd and 4th round draft picks, and draft FBMs with pick 30, who needs them?!!

                    I'd much rather the privilege of tearing up as I watch Goodsey chaired off the ground for his last ever game, still donning the red and white, holding the record for the most games ever for the Mighty Bloods. I just hope it won't be for several seasons yet.

                      After three losses in a row sometime in the season , fan forums filled with diatribe about the need to bottom out to be competitive sighting the one premiership in the past five or ten years that has successfully used this method.

                      One of Bevan/ mattner / richards / moore to become RWO whipping boys for 2011

                      Horse to be compared to roosy at every opportunity when things arent looking good

                      Loss of Kirk to be sighted as the reason for any close loss, even though we have rarely won close games over the last few years.

                      Calls for Collingwood in melbourne media to be allowed further concessions (in addition to it hardly ever playing outside melbourne) so that it somehow is allowed to finish both 1st,2nd, 3rd and 4th at end of regular season to guarantee it a grand final spot.

                        Yes yes yes. Agreed completely.

                          You forgot to mention that he'll be wearing his three Brownlows and three Premiership medallions around his neck when he goes.

                            I know I will get shot down and nailed to the cross for this, but....Jude Bolton to struggle to get a game apart from as a Sub. His speed and disposal a big factor in a game where speed and tackling has gone to another level.

                              No, not nailed to the cross, maybe slapped a little maybe. You still need some in and under mid fielders and with the retirement of Kirk Jude becomes an important player.

                                I teared up at Kels and Magics farewell but I can't see me doing the same with Goodes and I have no earthly idea why. Great player but I don't share the same affection for Adam as most of the supporter group. He'll break the record no question but he won't be in my top 5 favorite Swans.

                                I'll get criticized for this but it's a feeling I have and one I can't quite explain.
