We get blokes for free and they do well, I'm thinking we are the smart ones

Pfft, surely your pulling the piss ???

Cary and Jukes cost us nothing, we got them out of ammos.
would have thought that was smart recruiting and good development.
bit smarter than you blokes getting Krak and Spencer

Totally agree on Cary and Jukes but they have been on board for 3/4 years, we have Black, Nelson, Rodda, Johnson and Manning to name a few that fit that description. "Cost us nothing" does not go hand in hand with Swans Ollie, hence your financial situation. When you promote from within over many years (Claremont are the leaders in this area) then bring that comment up again !

doesnt go hand in hand with WP either, 9 imports in your flag team last year and you still want more imports..
you must be gutted all that behind the scences work you did to assure us that Krak was a Falcon through and through came to nothing..

Haha, thats where we operate a bit better than you boys-

Keunen- Has been at the club for 9/10 years $-Standard WAFL players fee cost us bugger all.
Hunt-Has been at the club for 9/10 years $-Standard WAFL players fee cost us bugger all.
Mellington_ Was an AFL allocated player $-Nil.
Marusic-Came to the club off his own bat $-Standard WAFL players fee.
Hutchings-AFL listed from 2013 $-Was a per game played fee.
Potenti-Came to the club off his own bat $-Standard WAFL players fee.
Fowler-Came to the club off his own bat $-Standard WAFL players fee.
Jones-Will be getting a handsome pay (worth every cent).
Kerr-Will be getting a handsome pay (worth every cent).

Of that list, only 2 players would be getting a healthy fee, Hutchings only played about 10 games for us which kept the coffers a tad healthier.

So you are an expert now on what players get paid ?
jeepers what dont you know - part from what Krak is doing ?

You like to live in the past MO, you are beating a 2 week old drum, most of us have moved on, Krak is yesterdays news.

Both Cary and Jukes have been at Swans since 2011 after coming from Trinity/Aquinas (via Attadale JFC).
Surely with your continual whining/banging on about EF's lack of forwards you wouldnt have let those 2 young boys go ...surely????

BH....lets pass judgement on what EF may or may not missed out on with Cary and Jukes, after a couple of years of them playing WAFL footy.....these boys have played good footy for only 1/2 a season of WAFL footy, can see why you are getting excited with SD flying high at present, but a tad early for getting a woody just yet big fella..... don't you think?

Touch wood though, Jukes and Cary keep you well n truly salivated BH, however some initial success doesn't guarantee future success, just ask the likes of Lester-Smith, Stack, Bevan and even Dayle ' it's all a bit too much' Garlett about the joys of goal kicking in 2014!!

.....if for some reason the Cary/Jupp bandwagon should crash & burn, does that mean SD nous for development and recruitment will come under scrutiny from you SD boys?.....or will you SD boys just sweep it under the carpet and bury your heads in the Steele Blue sand, like your off field management apparently does, when dealing with SDFC financial affairs?

Not at all, I do know that we don't owe any players match payments from past seasons !!!
