And after we win the remaining of our games and finish fourth and lose to Richmond week 1 of finals, we'll go on and beat Richmond in the GF 8)

but they paid overs getting him back... Wasn't it supposed to be the greatest midfield of all time?

Sydney won’t win the GF.
Heck they aren’t even the best team in their own state anymore.

I think he's been quite handy. Only had 38 last weekend which is probably below par for Gaz over his career but not a bad effort ;)
So you've seen everything have you?
Yep

No

It's his first season back at Geelong and they will play finals.
He's 34.
He has absolutely nothing to prove at Geelong.
He is nowhere near the highest paid player currently.

considering Buddy is worth every cent I fail to see an issue..


How many flags did he deliver?


well he's pretty much single handedly got us to two GF's... When will gooses like you realise there is 22 players in a team.

Judd didn't bring any flags to carlton.
Lockett non at Sydney
Dangerfield non at Geelong
etc etc

Buddy has been a massive success at the swans, on and off the field and anyone who doubts that has literally no idea about football


If only Sydney realised there is 22 players in a team, they might have 2 or 3 more flags by now, cant give all the COLA to one player, the ones desperate for success get the big names at an inflated price and as Sydney have proven it doesnt get you the ultimate success.
You would think Sydney wouldbve learnt from the Lockett experience, that didnt win them a flag either.

I an devastated you couldnt find room for Mitchell though, pick 14 for a Brownlow Medallist, unreal!!

There wouldn't be too many who'd argue the Swans didn't benefit from that one though.
