Sydney Swans - The big picture

[GongSwan]

Ed Barlow will be our next Goodes. Um, oh, hang on, um maybe not.......

Since he's playing for the Doggies this week, he might have trouble bringing a brownlow to Sydney hehe. Finding another Goodes will take some doing, there ust aren't that many players with all his attributes, like findsing another Judd

As said, no point rebuilding while GWS and GC are taking all picks.

But we should be looking for a major rebuild in the middle of this decade 2015 to 2016. Bottom out if we have to. GWS will be flying by then, and they can keep the AFL flag burning in Sydney.

I think I'd prefer we just keep recruiting smarter than other clubs and stay competitive. Flags are just as likely to come.

The logic of bottoming out is spurious at best - a couple of good draft picks does not a make a premiership team, there's other ways to build a great list, especially with the pressure the salary cap puts on sides with lots of talent.

A Sydney derby as a top of the table clash might be fun.
