Former Swans reserves player Michael Dickson is the Seattle Seahawks punter, he is now the highest paid punter in the NFL and will be playing in tomorrows Superbowl. The kid has come a long way.

Nice story on how our former academy player, Angus Anderson, was drafted by Collingwood.

Why this new Pie's draft experience was unlike any other - https://www.afl.com.au/news/1459359

Another former player, James Bell, who also spent a few years playing in the SANFL, has now returned to Sydney to play with the Giants VFL side.

Ollie Florent & Will Hayward have been allocated guernsey numbers 14 and 19 respectively at Carlton. Still getting used to them being no longer a Swan.

I’m with you- it feels very strange! Clubs and players both do what they think is in their best interest and this happens in most sports these days. It seems a bit weird that a player is singing a “foreign” team song after joining another club, having been with his previous club for years. But nowadays many players have mates in opposing clubs, as witnessed by their friendly chats after a game- during the match they are fierce rivals but once the final whistle is blown, they often hug, and I must confess I like that!

Wish we had found a position for him in our administration

The AGE reported Ted Richards had been approached by EFC and is weighing up his options. I've now notice a Reddit article published on the same day (5th Nov) stating that he has joined the EFC board which is expected to be formalised by the end of the week.

Take your pick!

Ted Rchards is being approached by Essendon to replace Dean Solomon on their Board.

I read an article on my phone at work yesterday that he had joined the Essendon board. Glad to see it has only been an approach so far.

I hope he doesn't but then I can't really do that with good grace seeing that Geelong's Tom Harley and Freo's Matthew Pavlich have given loyalty to our club.

But I still hope he doesn't LOL.

Ben Paton has signed with the Albury Tigers for 2026.
