Hannebery was the most interesting to watch. When I arrived he was with the main group, doing a match-style drill (but with no tackling). He then looked to pull up sore and left the main group, and proceeding to do a series of short sprints and sharp turns under the watchful but encouraging eye of one of the trainers. He didn't look overly happy but his intensity was good while running. Then, about 10 minutes before I left, he rejoined the main group who were still doing what appeared to be the same drill. Although the skills they were practising were all pretty vanilla (running to receive, handballing to receiver, short-medium kicks) Hanners was an absolute standout in terms of his intensity - how hard he ran to space, how he demanded the ball, and how he kept on running even when his lead had been ignored.
He may not have the array of flashy skiils or pace that others bring to the game, but I have little doubt he is going to get the absolute most out of himself over his career.
Off topic, but I also got my first glimpse of Cunningham. He was with the main group and looked completely at home, handling the ball very confidently and showing some decent pace - not Rohan or Jetta pace but still reasonably quick.Comment

Anyone else think Hanners might be too intense? Is burn out an issue for a young bloke like this?..And the Swans are the Premiers...The Ultimate Team...The Ultimate Warriors. They have overcome the highly fancied Hawks in brilliant style. Sydney the 2012 Premiers - Gerard Whately ABC

Not sure - an old adage is "Train hard, play easy" but Hanners seems to have only two settings, off and full on. It doesn't worry me because there are some wise old heads to keep an eye on him, and I'm sure they'll let him know if he needs to pace himself more.He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team.

Loved the smooch Vid.
Seriously that swinging tackle on the saints player is one of my all time favourite tackles. The momentum, speed and execution. Perfecto!Comment
