If Tommy gets a game then the swans may as well give the flag to hawthorn now .. Taking dead weight into a g/f is crazy and to be honest Tommy has not shown anything to suggest he isn't dead weight ..

I don't know much about Mitch Brown, and I reckon Cripps is going to be a very good player. Despite that, purely based on their stats and ages, I'd absolutely trade Cripps for Brown.

Midfielders are important but we've got a few of them - whereas we just haven't got young talls. If Brown becomes a player he fills a massive list hole for us. It's too important to pass up that opportunity.

His highlights reel is pretty good - I don't know much about him - but am thinking he might have a bit of Ahmed saad potential about him - hasn't been playing that long and improves a lot every year - from his stats he looks like he might need to get himself to where the ball is more often - but you'd think that could be improved

So who would be injured for him to come in? Reid? Morton?

Doesn't mean he's not rubbish. Just means he's a rubbish player in a premiership team. Think Darryl Freame, James Manson, Shane Kerrison, Mick Gayfer....etc. Gee my filth bias is showing, isn't it?

Agree, but it wouldn't stop him from being labeled a hero... Probably do a freakin' river dance on the podium like Kennelly too.

I remember wanting to scrap the AFL after watching that annoying Leprechaun doing that stupid jig. Tommy should be deported if he resorts to dancing like that. Knowing our luck he will just happen to kick 8 goals and the media will have him as the greatest player ever in a GF and they will talk up Sydneys amazing ability to attract s*** players and make them awesome.

Goal square eh.....I'd assume it is Sam Reid

He was injured part way through the season, and never seemed to fully recover

Matthew Richardson announced about 3/4 of an hour ago that the filth has signed Quentin Lynch under free agency.


Except for the sanity nothing much has been lost.

Can't sign any contract until at least Wednesday as the Eagles still have right of reply. Technically...

Apparently Mumford might be a late withdrawal, so this Walsh rumour could actually be legit. Put him at FF and Pyke goes int the ruck

To be sure, to be sure.







That's why I posted this in the Rumour Thread.

Congratualtions Skeptic. Your alias on here is justified and well earnt. :)

To anyone who took offence, none was intended, so my sincere apologies.

My rumour source can often be found in the bar at The Rose in Fitzroy. Tommy Walsh was never mentioned... my rumour source is Irish, and enjoys the joke of adding 'to be sure, to be sure' to many of his/her pronouncements. It is true that 'Irish' has never been wrong on these things, but whilst that is the truth, it's not the full truth... we had a 'rumour' thread... I just couldn't resist the opportunity...


It's Dave, man. Will you open up? I got the stuff with me! -------Who?
Dave, man. Open up ------------------------------------------ -----Dave???
Yeah, Dave. ---------------------------------------------------------Dave's not here.

Well Jude is playing with a torn PCL and ACL, strange for mine...but admittedly don't know anything much about it.

What if it tears fully in the heat of the first 10 mins of the GF?

I know he is so important to their chances, but it's risky.

How can the Pies fit Q tip in their cap? They must be pretty certain that Wellingham is going back to Perth.
