Last player I want is Gaff.
Looked like a fully broken man yesterday.
Having him deal with the negativity from the punch is one thing, but to have him playing for us with that, alongside the net result from the incident (playing in a premiership team) is just asking for trouble.The difference between insanity and genius is measured only in success.Comment

Actually there is some substance to the Merrett trade, because talks have taken place. Will it amount to nothing? I cannot see the trade happening.Was the best ruck/fwd in the comp for half a season before injury struck him down yet again. Don't confuse the qualities of the man with his devastating run of injuries whilst with us. He was a recruiting coup, just didn't work out due to those injuries.
As for Merrett, just another rumour with absolutely no substance. Did you hear the one about Pendelbury wanting to move to ........

Not listening, so can't tell whether this is speculation or informed: NAB AFL Trade Radio on Twitter: ".@cleary_mitch on Nic Newman & Ryan Clarke: "It could be a rare straight swap between @sydneyswans & @NMFCOfficial"
#NABTradeRadio".
I'd be happy enough with it.Comment

So we likely have 7 spots minimum to fill:
Paps and Ronke have become specials not from the major draft or trades and no doubt we will have a couple others in mind
Medicals at the Swans reported for the following so far :
1. Clarke
2. Vandenberg
3. Blakey (certainty)
4.
5.
6.
7."be tough, only when it gets tough"

I’m with you AG. We have a significant amount of Tippo’s salary plus Hanners and Rohan’s money. That has to go on more than just paying who we’ve got.Comment

Probably because Sam Reid doesn't want to be traded. Happy with us and thinks he'll get back on the field in 2019. Players are not chess pieces.Comment
