    It's highly plausible

      Wish the club would announce things a little earlier.

          If they allegedly want a "defensive" coach, I'm not sure the Don is their man.

            I was at the game , melican was slow to react on multiple occasions. He seems to take a lot of games to pick up the pace . I reckon all though shorter Fox couldn’t have been worse

              I wouldnt of had Fox on Hogan. As their key forward McCartin makes the most sense, or Rampe. However I wouldnt be suprised if Fox did better on Hogan than Melican

              If something like this makes you mad, maybe you should consider some medication or anger management?

                  Okay, doesn't mean you can't be a nicer and more reasoned person

                      Which Swans players goes missing ie. under performs in finals footy? Geelong only just realised they bought a lemon in Gary Rohan.

                            I don't understand why so many posters on here when discussing our list next year and specifically defender's, add in Paddy McCartin. Have I missed something somewhere??? I have not seen any of the football journalists mention him as someone that we, or any other team for that matter is considering to draft or pick up. The only place I've seen it is on this forum!

                            While I agree that he looked decent as a defender in the handful of games he played, I wouldn't say he did anything to bang down the door to have clubs clamouring to sign him!

                            Is it because we have his brother and he played in our reserves that people think we will pick him up???

                              I think it might have something to do with him being a former number 1 draft pick.

                                Yep, and if he can play to his potential, he'd be cheap and most definitely worth a shot. He could be just what we're looking for and if nothing else, a serviceable depth player.
