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)
    8 goals on debut...no pressure.
    The eternal connundrum "what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object" was finally solved when David Hasselhoff punched himself in the face.

      Tommy, all I ask is you have a crack and try to make as many contests as you can.... You know, do the opposite to Jesse and you'll be fine.
      ..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

        Good to see the lad made to earn and then doing the right things to get there. Only seen him in the NAB Cup where he was under-whelming (or at best whelming), but sounds like he's done the right thing in the Magoos. Gives us a bit more to be excited on Saturday - is he our first AFL debutant for the year?

          I think Harry was.

            Yes! How could you doubt it? It's Melbourne we are playing! Our team will be out of the blocks instantly to make amends for 2 poor weeks! They will be pumping the ball down relentlessy. We have a big man debuting in front of the sticks. I think he will have the best debut we have seen in a long time. Everything points to it being a huge success!

              Warwick Capper will be there in leopardskin pants - what could possibly go wrong tomorrow?

                OK. I like your optimism, but I don't share it

                He had observed that people who did lie were, on the whole, more resourceful and ambitious and successful than people who did not lie.

                  By the way, Starling will definately be a Darling!

                    Swans were waiting for the overseas flight discount sale before they could pick him.
                    Nothing like a good light bulb moment.
