      Anticipated, but still a marvellous result, fitting outcome for a marvellous season. Congratulations Callum and may the marvels continue for the next few weeks!

        As expected the whinging has started up already. "Oh!! its great to finish on the top of the ladder and still get the best first year player" blah blah blah.
        Its unbelievable when you consider the time, money and effort Sydney put into him to lure him away from Rugby etc. etc.

            In addition to his obvious footy talent & potential, he's got future Captain written all over him.

              And congratulations to all the posters that told us last year how good this kid was. The thing about some of these 1st year players Alier , Mills etc is how calm and composed they play. I like Mills comment that the club does every thing for them and the players just get out on the field and play. The academy sure has paid dividends.

                They're such deluded losers....starting to panic that the 4-peat is looking doubtful and their sworn enemies from north of the border might replace them at the pinnacle I guess, and venting, no.......bleating. Pathetic.

                  I should also add, post rant, well done Callum, you are a gun and a future captain of our club. Outstanding! So glad you are part of the Swans family. I'm tearing up.....with joy!!

                    It occurred to me, that for anyone who backed someone other than Mills, the rising star was actually 'rats'.

                      Thoroughly deserved award for young Callum. He wears that famous #14 so well and is going to be a fabulous player for us over a long time - an outstanding debut season and he will only get better in time, especially when he gets his chance in midfield.

                        Congratulations Callum. Worthy of the #14.

                        Yep, this appeared very quickly. https://shop.sydneyswans.com.au/nab-...ing-star-piece. I gotta say that I can't see "Callum Mills" in that autograph though.

                          Yes, to me it looks like, 'Art Vandelay'.

                            They rarely put the players autographs on the promo pics (even though a 10 year old with photoshop could do it)

                              Any comment yet from Eddie?

                              Had $10 at 20/1 on Callum mid season for a bit of fun, very happy with that!

                                Might be looking at Chris Judd here. Saw a few interviews with him last night. He is far from being your average punter.
