Heeney is out of gas.
Glyden and Warner can't do it on there own.
I think they need Mills and Parker back asap. Not sure Adams makes them better.

Round 17: the sweaty hemorrhoid games.
- Thread starter Redford
- Start date

The Swans biggest issue remains their lack of really dominant forwards.
They rely on their mids and smalls to kick a lot of goals.
Logan and Amartey are handy but they aren't, Curnow and McKay or Hawkins and Cameron or Riewoldt and Lynch or Kennedy and Darling.
Thats the knock on them for me uf they have a deficiency that is come finals time.

In 2017 19 and 20 it was the toughest hardest most pure sports league in history. And we prevailed!!!!
They definitely need Mills and Parker back and firing to seriously attack the flag.
They also need at least 1 Key Forward to really start menacing the opposition or providing some damage.
They are top for a reason they've been the best team in it, to date but you've got to be the best in it come September as we found out in 2018 and the Go Dees found out in 22.
We haven't got to the furlong before the last turn in the Melbourne Cup yet. When we round the turn into the straight August out of big boy month we'll have a better idea re injuries and form who's caught a wave of momentum and who's losing theirs.

Good you mention this Dudford - Handy little debut:
20 possessions
8 score involvements (3rd most in match)
25 pressure acts (2nd most in match)
14 tackles (double anyone else in match)
5 tackles inside 50 (most in match)
With those numbers, and our deficiencies in those exact areas, he would absolutely walk up into our starting 18 ATM.
And could have been had in any rookie draft of the last 3-4 years.
Could it be another one of Leysy and the Dunces of Doom freakish looks into the future?
On the back of being ridiculed by all and sundry for wanting to swap Baker for a 21 y.o Josh Treacy

Yep I tend to think they're probably in a period of high intensity training.
Let's hope so and that they regain form. Because the only other outcome, IMO, is a Carlton flag and that to me is just completely untenable
And yet, at this point would you rather have North's list or ours?

I'd rather have our recent history. Who knows what will happen in the future.
@BluesBloke pumped him up. Has him locked in for next few weeks now.Good to see Orazio back to his 5 disposal game. Has kicked 8 goals in 13 games this year, 5 against us.... Subbed off 3 of last 4 games.
Maybe he can do a Morton or Frampton.
And now he's actually been dropped this week, thank christ!

Bump. This aged well Dudford.
Looks like yet another win for the Princes of Prediction!! Becoming quite the habit!
What precisely did you actually bet on with Mannagh Nobet Pays ?
This aged very well....even doubled down ! Ha hah hah hah.....ah geez. The Dunce of Doom at his finest.
