        Remember Tyrone Leonardis and his 'like' button?

          I sure do......he's delayed his debut by a fair bit I'd reckon.

            Back on topic, I was annoyed when Biggs got traded. He showed his worth in a gun team last year and seems to have taken it to another level this year. I am still annoyed, but last Saturday night went a long way to erasing that. If he wants to be in Melbourne, good luck to him, he's definitely getting the opportunity he was after, but if he ends his career with no flags and see's his former club win some more(I'm an optimist!), well, he'll just have to live with that.

              I wished he'd stayed but I can't blame him for leaving. We can't keep them all and we were pretty deep in his position when he left.

                Good luck to him, i think universal opinion was he was way to soft for big game and finals footy

                  Let's celebrate the guys that are still here, and wish the ones that are not all the best with their new clubs.

                    Yes, and hope for the game's sake that some of them turn out to be as successful as some of the "rejects" we've picked up.
                    He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

                      Unintended?. Don't be coy Meg .. i like you too.

                        Glad he is going well as others have said we can't keep everyone when other clubs are chasing we have not had too many players that we have released / cut who have had better careers after they left the Swans - Dempster to Saints is one I know not sure of too many others

                          Matty Lloyd has placed him into his rolling All Australian team this week. He would be a perfect fit for our team right now.

                            We just needed to hang onto him for another season but you can understand why he wouldn't have been happy with that.

                              Biggs had glandular fever over the 2013/2014 summer and took time to recover. 2014 would have been the year in which he broke into the team though that would have been difficult given the strength of the 2014 team. Great seeing him do well. I agree with Mug Punter that we don't lose too many that we really want to keep

                                Much more aggrieved about passing on Dunkley who looks a very good prospect. Still don't understand what happened there.
