We've been linked with Jonathon (brother of Harrison) Marsh, as well as...
South Adelaide's Hayden McLean and another ex-Pie in Williamstown's Sam McLarty.Why three clubs could target former Collingwood defender - AFL.com.auJonathon Marsh – Richmond VFL – 194cm – 24yo
Has put his hand up to return to the AFL after two seasons at East Fremantle in the WAFL. Preparing to play under his former Collingwood assistant Craig McRae at Punt Road this season.
Hayden McLean - Sandringham - 197cm - 20yo
Trained with the Saints at the end of last season in the hope of winning a spot on the club's main list. Seen by many as the most unlucky key position player to miss out last November.
Sam McLarty – Williamstown – 197cm– 20yo
Cut from the Pies after two seasons on the list in November. Started as a key defender before playing forward/ruck in the VFL. Now training as a defender at the Seagulls.Comment

Hayden McLean trained with the club for a week or so during his academy placement - must have been just over two years ago now. So the club would know a bit about him. I think he was more of a forward back then but maybe he's transitioned to defence since joining the SANFL.
Jonathon Marsh is an interesting name. Hopefully his brother has nice things to say about the club and isn't too cut up that he was delisted at the end of last year. He (Jonathon) played some reasonable senior football for the Pies before surprisingly retiring. Assuming he's in the right mental space now, he could be a good addition. He has a bit of pace and size about him.Comment

Marsh was probably the most interesting pick in the 2013 draft. He was touted by many as a top 10 pick, but was taken with pick 77. So there must have been some known issues at the time. I was actually quite keen on having us draft him.
Given the circumstances, it seems a perfect time to roll the dice on someone like Marsh, who has the talent to be a very good player.
McClean wouldn't be a bad choice either.Comment

McLarty and McLean flying in on Friday for 'medical screenings'
Sydney makes 11th hour bid to fill final list spot - AFL.com.au
McLarty and McLean both played in forward/ruck roles in the VFL last year so it might be a case of one of them replacing Pink's spot forward in the NEAFL while Toby shifts to the backline.Comment

Same here, but sometimes some players don't have the emotional maturity at 17/18 to cope with the AFL.
Marsh can play, but maybe clubs want to see him play a year in the VFL before risking it.
But it looks like we are going for Sam McLarty or Hayden McLean.
Could be wrong but isn't McLarty completely deaf?
Happy with either, as we do need a tallish lock down defender as AA is too loose and Rampe is better a rebounding.doof-doof

We could potentially take both,because we also have the option of putting Tippett on the long term injury list.Our ruck depth is questionable,especially at the centre square.Hayden Mclean was pretty good at Sandringham last year playing as a Ruck/Fwd,who might be a good project player along with Mclarty as a KD option..Comment

Yep McLarty's deaf. Nice story and I'd be glad if we picked him up.

The Swans were looking at a guy with one eye in the draft a couple of years ago. Does anyone know what happened to him? I have a feeling he was picked up by a SA club. He was a key forward. He was a highly rated player but given his disability, and his position, which requires excellent reading of the play id be surprised if he is still playing.Comment

Wolftone was referring to Cheese Barlow. Good old Ed plays for Southern Districts. He’s put on a bit of weight so is no longer the skinny long distance runner we all remember.Comment

No news as yet on whether we going to take either or neither of the Big Mac's. Deadline is Friday.Comment

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your posts may be deleted, without warning or notification at moderator discretion, for breach of any of the RWO rules set out below. If you have any questions or concerns about post/thread removal, please feel free to PM a moderator or Email us at [email protected]
Do not post your queries on the main boards. Such posts WILL be removed, without further explanation.
Constant breaches of the rules will result in your access to RWO being reduced as the Moderator / Administrator group see fit. RWO uses the vBulletin Infraction System to deal with breaches of the RWO rules. All Infractions have an expiry date. Such an expiry date may be as short as 10 days or as long as 6 months. Multiple infractions, depending on the number of points a member accumulates, WILL result in temporary bans from the site and CAN result in a permanent ban. Please note that some Infractions have an expiry date of "Never" and WILL result in the RWO member being banned from the site immediately.
1) Signatures / Avatars
Keep signatures under 4 lines of standard sized fonts (if you must use large fonts, use just one line) as a courtesy to all users who read the forums.
Do not use signatures / avatars as an opportunity to make jibes at other forum members. This will be considered to be sniping (refer Rule 6 below). You may not refer to another RWO forum member, or quote anything they have written, without permission from that member. Using an anonymous tag does not make it acceptable. If quotes are not removed, we reserve the right to remove them, without notification. If in doubt as to whether something is acceptable or not, don't use it!
2) Spamming
Advertising for personal commercial purposes is NOT permitted. Placing links to sites that other users may find of interest / personal websites is acceptable within reason (ie constantly posting links will be frowned upon).
3) Deliberately avoiding the RWO swear filter
RWO is a site that is accessible by Swans supporters of all ages and walks of life. A swear filter is in place to mask offensive words and phrases. This swear filter contains offensive words and variant spellings of offensive words to stop you from deliberately avoiding the swear filter. Do not attempt to avoid the swear filter through alternate spelling of offensive words. Do not attempt to avoid the swear filter by devising systems to fool the swear filter in its recognition of offensive words.
4) Inappropriate Language / Excessive swearing
RWO is a site that is accessible by Swans supporters of all ages and walks of life. Moderators will let some minor cases through. Anything deemed to be of poor taste or of an offensive nature may be removed at moderator discretion. Consider all members when posting; what you think is funny, not all members will feel the same way.
5) Trolling / Baiting
Deliberately posting on threads in an attempt to stir / bait other RWO users will not be tolerated.
6) Flaming / Sniping / Abuse / Insulting other members
If you have to have a go at someone personally, take it off the boards. Everyone else doesn't need to see your hissy fits. Remember, "Play the ball, not the man". This includes spouses or partners. If you don''t like a post, don't flame, snipe, abuse or insult in response - it makes the job of moderation much harder. Report the post through the forum reporting mechanism (click on the Triangle with the exclamation mark) and let the Moderator / Administrator group deal with it.
7) Legal issuesa) The Moderator / Administrator group will keep a very close eye on threads discussing rumours or anything that could be potentially libellous. Moderators and Administrators are not interested in the chance of legal action regardless of how small - if deemed that there is ANY threat to RWO potentially, we will come down hard on it.
b) Due to potential issues of copyright infringement and the potential legal implications, posting of complete articles is NOT permitted. If necessary, post a link to the article. Where appropriate, you may quote sections of the article to aid in discussion.
c) Due to potential issues of copyright infringement and potential legal implications, posting of links to "live streaming (of AFL games)" and "AFL content" sites that are not AFL endorsed is NOT permitted. Posts with such links will be removed immediately and infraction points will be issued.
d) Freedom of speech does NOT = freedom to slander
8) Racial / Sexual Discrimination / Villification
It is not acceptable for members to engage in racial and/or sexual discrimination / villification. It is not acceptable for members to use terminology in describing race or gender in a derogatory manner. Discussing and disputing the views and opinions of other posters is acceptable. Personally vilifying or abusing others for having certain characteristics, or being a member of a certain group (or because you think they're a member of a certain group), is not. This rule shall apply to any post attacking race, skin colour, ethnic background, gender and sexuality.
