    I noticed Cunningham in a few centre bounces.

      Ta, he's done the run with tag before. So maybe could play as a defensive mid as needed or on the outside with Hanners, and let Tom and Joey go to work. Think he has more toe than Macca for the spread and 2 way running, Macca better off the HB at this stage.

        I wasn't at the game on Saturday.. Did Nick Malceski get any form of recognition from the crowd? Was there any booing? (I'm interested in the comparison with the way Hawthorn supporters treat Buddy.)
        I did see several Swans' players giving him warm hugs after the match.

          He was totally anonymous on the field so had to tell.

          based on that performance he'd be incredibly lucky to be in our 22 now so another correct call by our list management team

            I think we are going to appreciate how important Kizza is during the finals. We are blessed that we still have Tom, McGlynn and Birdy to fall back on not to mention Hewett but Kizza is a driving force for the team and he was in really good form.
            We have them where we want them, everything is going according to plan!

              Not one boo.
              Me, and those around me, were begging him to come back.
              Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.

                Great, as I expected and as he deserves.

                  He fitted into our side with a defined role that he played well; he knew his teammates well; he wasn't by far the most experienced (& therefore relied upon) defender in our backline. Barring injuries, I'd daresay he'd still make our backline. But at his age, her certainly wouldn't be the future of our defensive unit. Correct, albeit sad, call by list management & Mal IMO

                    I thought he was fine.
                    I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
                    We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

                      I'm pretty sure he was their BOG.
                      He's still got a solid left kick which hit its target every time.
                      At least HE got the ball out of halfback....

                        Jetta was in there for at least one centre bounce.

                        He got a little cheer as the Suns were walking off to their dressing room near the Members. He responded with a quick thumbs up.

                          Agreed. 18 disposals, kicked well. Was swamped. And his stats ranking was strong.
