No way is Daniher is worth a pick 4 and a player... Pick 4 is far to generous by itself!


Daniher is a match winning key forward prospect you need to replace Franklin in 8 years and cover for Reid who might play back as much as forward.

What he's worth on the open market and what he's worth to Sydney are two different things.

Jones is a gutsy but ineffective midfielder the likes of which fall from trees.

IF you're medical team (or any clubs' for that matter) could get him on the park regularly, he'd be worth way more than pick 4.

True, but he hasn't been on the park much for the past 2 years. Hence why he isn't worth that much

Like all players, not worth a cracker if he can't get on the park, Wouldn't think the Swans would risk going for him if they didn't believe they could get him right, no point having all 3 of your key forwards being made of chalk.

Jim, Pirate, Wubsy etc, what are your thoughts if such a situation arose?

It's only speculation, but both seemed to believe that could be win/win for each club.

I've long been fearful we'll never get to see the best Joe has to offer - I don't care where he plays, just hope he gets a decent run with the body and shows us all what he can do.

I don’t reckon Joe is going anywhere.

Yeah was all hypothetical, just wondered how both sets of supporters would feel about it.

Not a fan of it. Don’t mind offloading Jones. Just don’t think we need another key forward. We need a mid or a key defender imo

I can see why you’d think a premiership and just winning a final are on the same level. Rare as hens teeth ;)

Any year without a flag is a failure so we have gone 6943 days without success ;)

Had a dip but was fairly poor last night. Should have been utilised in the middle more as he is one of those players that needs to be constantly around the play.

Career stats he's basically the same as Sam Gray.

He frustrates us because he has no middle ground. It’s either fantastic or spud. We have far too many players who have far too much gap between their best and worst so he isn’t alone there.

Sounds like the Worsfold/Rutten succession plan is happening and will be announced today
