    Dane Rampe’s selective hearing gets a mention in the Hun

    https://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/round-9-afl-teams-damien-hardwick-declares-trent-cotchin-and-sydney-stack-will-return-for-richmond-ahead-of-footy-frenzy/news-story/ac7eb30ee3e25a931f6f48114cac6101

    Even if Dane Rampe’s surgeon told him he shouldn’t be playing five days after a hand operation, the Sydney Swans star has found the perfect alibi.

    “He spoke to me but I was high as a kite, I can’t remember what he said,” says Rampe ... “All he said was he screwed it in pretty well and nothing is moving it. That’s all I needed to hear … well, that’s all I remembered anyway.”

    Rampe’s selective hearing also came into play last week when he spoke to the Swans medical staff at halftime against the Hawks. “If it’s broken, it’s broken. It can’t get any worse,” Rampe told himself.

      I wondered the same thing, I imagine this season there's be a fair bit more general player management going on.

      I thought Taylor was more than handy against Hawthorn.
      I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
      We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time
