I think Longmire is on record as remarking that Knoll is new to the game (having transferred from basketball just a couple of years ago) and is still learning the game as an explanation for why they didn't play him last year. So it could be about his game understanding as well as about his match fitness.All opinions are not equal.

"I think Callum Mills. He's just uncompromising in the way he goes about it, on and off the field." - Josh Kennedy.

I have little doubt that Mills is a future captain of the club. When depends on the perceived success of the three captain model. If they like it, he may replace Kennedy in the next season or three. Otherwise he might need to wait a little longer. But he'll get there.Comment

Joey phoned it in for his captain answers.
For future leader he nominates the youngest member of the leadership group. For young players to watch he nominates our two first picks from last year's draft. For breakthrough player he nominates the Lizard because... his nickname is Lizard?
He may be a great captain but for media duties he's certainly captain obvious!Comment

I find it difficult t move on - I've still not got over Neville Fields & Des Tuddenham.
I absolutely hated seeing Mummy go, and Nanny. Tom Mitchell will probably keep rubbing it in.
I also think of missed opportunities like Lenny Hayes, Luke Breust and Callum Ward - and who knows how many good NSW kids were lost between the cancellation of the Rams and the foundation of the academies.
I'm in a bit of a fey mood todayComment

Full injury list has been revealed going into season commencement, and we are in very good shape. Franklin + Reid not ready yet but shaping up nicely. Melican and Fox the only other two and neither are guaranteed 22.
However I would suggest watching this space with Ling & Rowbottom, despite seeing Ling in the training footage from Swans Media.Comment

Interesting to see that most pundits are predicting Adelaide to beat us in Rd 1, when Adelaide have also been tipped as heavy favourites for the wooden spoon. I know we're probably not top 8 material but I don't think we're wooden spoon contenders either.Comment

With the state leagues put on ice.. any idea how guys not in the 22 are going to get match fit?Comment

I'm predicting Gold Coast to be better than many think this year so I think the dreaded Wooden Spoon is very much up for grabs. Sadly , I think we will finish bottom 4 given the current state of our list but I'm hoping to be pleasantly surprised!
