I hope both us (the fans) and the coaching staff have a bit of patience with Tommy - I don't expect him to have a massive impact early on, but he seems the sort of guy that has the physical tools, and a bit of experience with the pace and intensity with the big boys will pay off in the longer term. He will be getting a big cheer from me on Saturday that's for sure...Comment

I think he'll bring the ball to ground and make a contest, something White and Dre don't do enough of - they're passengers to a contest more often than not. Quite often on the weekend when Maric would drop back to smash Reidy in a contest, Jesse would be 5m away still getting there. Walsh just needs to draw a defender away from Reidy like the Spang did last year.
I think most of all though, we all want him to succeed to stick it up St Kilda some more.Twitter: @tp_roseComment

Great news for Tommy, even if he preempted it a bit by tweeting his mates. That got me wondering about how much leaking a club is allowed to do prior to the AFL's dodgy team news arrangement with Channel 7. Have the Swans violated that agreement with this news getting out early? I hope not btw because it's great publicity and a stupid rule. I was just wondering is all.Today's a draft of your epitaphComment

Need to factor in the Reid issue - he needs a rest in the ressies and regain his kicking mojo. He is likely to be rested this round. He is still a kid, and I think because of his size and our expectations, we forget that. He needs a bit of support out of the limelight right now imho.You can't argue with a sick mind - Joe WalshComment

I believe the exact opposite will happen. He will explode at AFL level ,grab the game by the horns and cement his place in the Swans forward line as the best thing we have had since Plugger or will have until Darling learns the trade. He has EVERYTHING to gain and nothing to lose by going "ape " in his first match. He will be the answer we have been waiting for and make the frustration of watching White and Everitt's ineptness a distant memory. It WILL happen! (Ihope)Comment

Nice to see he won't be overburdened by the weight of our collective expectationsComment

Well done Tommy! A bit disappointed the selection committee didn't take a few more risks! Please bring Sammy out to CHF as Tommy plays really well at FF! Pity we didn't get to see Morton, Harry, Nipper and Tony!Comment
