      AJ was captain at Oakleigh Chargers before being drafted, so it makes sense.

        Dunno who he journo is on Horse's right but she was asking some good questions. Not just the typical crap and got Horse to expand a little bit. Hope to hear/read more of her.

        Horse said he thought Jetta was very good on the wing which goes against what ugg said. Also mentioned Lockyer, Everitt, Reid, McGlynn as good contributors today.
        I hung around for the presser. The lass you're referring to was from Foxsports., and you're right. She was the one who wasn't asking the bland ,predictable questions that make most coaches and supporters weep.

        I'm with ugg..Jetta did one nice thing early but didn't contribute much thru my eyes.

        Benny McGlynn,Kieran J, Jarrad McVeigh,Goodesy all had a day out.

        Josh Kennedy distributed the ball with his customary style..from impossible traffic straight to a man.

        Teddy and Sam Reid tussled for half the game, and I thought honours werwe about even,I don't see any 2nd season nerves from Reidy and Ted just picked up where he left off.


        Rohan was pretty fumbly early then disconsolately returned to the rooms about half way through the exercise..wheter injured or disillusioned I don't know.

        Play was pretty tight for the first half, and opened up later.

        Mummy rucked well, and tussled with both his supporters..he took the honours but we shouldn't feel too bad if he needs to be replaced for any reaeason this season by Pyke or Seabs.

          Oh and lots of talk around the place on Jordan Lockyer, including from the coach. He mentioned his name two or three times in post match

            Jenny McAsey was on deck, so that may have been her. She was our media leader for a while, and a Swans member anyway. May have gone back to mainstream, but I heard (yet another one of those someone told me who someone told) that she was going back to being more of a family girl, so it may have been another tragic.

              Yeah Prim, Jenny was there, but stayed in background at presser. It was the good sort from Foxsports asked the good q's .

                Thx Ugg. What's the chances of him getting a game this year ? He's a rookie isn't he ?

                  Can lightning strike twice?

                  A. Goodes ND Pick 43

                  J. Lockyer ND Pick 43

                  I notice Lockyer is getting lots of mentions from the coaching panel, could he be the bolter for 2012 and yet another late draft pick winner?

                  He comes with good pedigree and background, must have been disappointed WCE didn't Father-Son him, he was still touted to go late first round in the ND and we couldn't wait to call out his name when pick 43 came around late in the secound round.

                  Fingers crossed for him and us.

                    An enjoyable morning
                    Goodes, Benny, Reid are very good
                    Like Bird
                    Seaby still ahead of Pyke
                    Don't think Jetta will be a winner
                    Moore should have a second chance
                    Lockyer has the potential

                      As I said way back Who Was That Guy honours taken by Jordan Lockyer.

                      Looks like we are all on the money here. Reminds me of that game against Collingwood when we were all wondering who 32 was. Kept the number. Not saying he is that good, its just that we noticed him for all the right reasons.

                        I didn't think Jetts was terrible today, he got plenty of it but it is his decision making that worries me. He has all that pace and doesn't take them on. He did once today burnt off three but delivered badly because he second guessed again. He always gets himself or a teammate in trouble doing that. The first option is normally the best and if it isn't make it better.

                              Birdy was very satisfying to watch. Growing up and into a very good player.

                              Parks looked just fine. Hard worker, talented, imho, no worries.
