And he said talk Tippett was a luxury after the Swans' premiership ignored the club's list profile.
"We are continually looking at our list, and when you look at our key-position stocks, Sam Reid played in a premiership at 20. (Mike) Pyke keeps improving and he has done a really good job, but he is 28. Lewis Roberts Thomson is 29.
