Before he got injured Snuffy2 jnr kicked nearly 50 and BOB kicked 50 the year before so I guess EF on paper can only hope.....I reckon if Notte can kick a few goals for SD than surely Dalziell must be a monty for a few running thru the midfield.........but hey EF haven't had a genuine FF since the Tregenza days so EF will always be reliant on a spread of goalkickers..........out of interest Swandog who is gonna kick SD goals? Genuine question considering SD lack of recruiting and heavy senior player losses? Who was the fella who kicked a bag v EF last year in your reserves

Goals for EF ???? .... think you'll see Perham , Bristow , Chartres , Ricciardello and definitely O'Brien up forward

Key forward Goals for SD .... well there's Ricky Cary and if Lance Daly is still at Basso there's something to aim at

Edit: and I tell you what , if there's a young tyro backman needing blooding I'd throw Tallan Ames up forward with his sheer experience

yes, Cary showed a bit in the 2nds at times..
Daly can play but ended up in the Northam comp a few weeks after playing league last year so not sure if he is playing..

a very, very good player...the comp will be all the poorer for his retirement. congrats on a terrific WAFL career.

Could be worse if Monaco was still at EF..........guys like Perham,BristowEtc are 3rd talls at best, EF will be reliant ONCE again on their mid size guys and midfield for goals,,,,,,nothing new but considering EF lack of recent success very fustrating to see as fan..........hopefully youngster Richie Bourne can surprise a few and kick some Brad Dick like goals.......still small tho.....one can only live in hope I guess

Your Midfield will drive your scores this year Freeze - 50% minimum from them in my belief

Ricciardello should be your FF - give the kid his chance and keep him there to give him belief he's the key forward ... the one I forgot was Jon's lad Jordan Dorotich

Edit: Justin was an absolute steal for us Staffordshires , I rate him

THE HOLE JUST GETS DEEPER

Disappointing news for Swans and genuine WAFL people in general. I always thought he was the main danger man when you played Perth. Nick Kane and Gaeppen had some good tussles.

It worries me that with some clubs losing a lot of players and looking quite ordinary on paper (Perth included), that we could see some almighty thumpings at the hands of the entity konwn as East Perth / WCE. If they field a side made up of 15 or so AFL listers then we could see some very one sided games this season. The comp will be a lot poorer for the loss of so many quality players from the real WAFL clubs.

So he's retiring but coaching and playing down south. What were his reasons to the boys?
We are fu#*ed now more than we have ever been before and its going to be a long hard year or years for the swans faithful.
Can someone please enlighten me as to why Greg Harding was given a contract extension? If I'm correct he has overseen a lot of what has happened in recent times and surely he has played a part in both the financial state and the departure of several senior players over the past 2 years.
