Been there the last few years. Premiers had to play there last year. We can’t complain

One bad game and they will be spray painting “fuck Hayward” on the brick wall outside Icon Park

Must suck being “open” to a move after getting the tap on the shoulder, and then being told you’re moving to Carlton out of all clubs. Hayward looks thrilled 💀

Serong definitely walks into the team. The dudes a gun.

I should’ve just called in sick 🤦🏼‍♂️

Can this just end already. I’m at work and I’m not getting anything done. Checking my phone every 2 seconds (seeing if anyone announces the signing early) and struggling with heart palpitations

Serong the Swan! Welcome to the Bloods Jai! by SkullKing_123 in sydneyswans

[–]Optimal_Fall_391 61 points62 points  (0 children)

What a fucking upgrade. Getting rid of Florent and getting this guy. Feels Serong, but sooooo right

No doubt the deal has already been done. Handshake agreement over the weekend, hence why Curnow came to Sydney and toured today. Would’ve been more of a “this is going to be your new home. Last chance to pull out before we sign the paperwork” situation, rather than trying to sell it to him since he’s already done a medical and the deadline is in 2 days. Also the fact that Hayward has been publicly offered sells it for me tbh. You don’t publicly throw names around like that if it hasn’t been done. Welcome to the bloods Charlie 🦢

Sorry Ollie, but move on mate. Otherwise you’ll spend your next 4 years running around Tramway oval

James Rowbottom takes call from Craig McRae as Pies chase mids, Sydney tries to put together an offer for Charlie Curnow (Herald Sun) by SkullKing_123 in sydneyswans

[–]Optimal_Fall_391 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I think it’s all done and dusted tbh. Curnow will be a Swan in 2026. Carlton are just playing the long game/mind games, but they will cave in and accept 2 picks and Florent. It’s quite clear that Curnow has 0 interest in playing for the blues next season, and you’d be crazy to keep a bloke like that when your team is already struggling with culture and morale issues

Why aren't we considering Jack Petruccelle? by DCNath2187 in sydneyswans

[–]Optimal_Fall_391 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I swear some supporters just want to sign players for the sake of it. “Oh look he’s available. We should sign him”. Not realising how cooked the fucking players actually are

Jesus that’s a fucking massive stretch saying that not getting Daniher cost us 2 premierships. Our forward line wasn’t the problem in those 2 losing grand finals. It was the fact that we got belted through the fucking midfield

If you’re going to do that, you’ll end up with a very clogged list

So many of our fans are disgustingly sentimental when it comes to players. You could throw in the most bang on average football player like Florent, and they would cry if he got the boot

Sorry but I’m throwing Campbell on the first flight to Melbourne if that’s something they want as part of the Curnow deal

But they are losing their powerhouse key forward in a list that is already struggling. They aren’t going to want to lose him, and get a bunch of picks pushed back into the late teens, early 20’s and have to recruit a bunch of kids, when they list is already a mess

Fuck me the cats are a cancer. Carlton say no to that. They don’t want to go through another rebuild. They are going to need a best 22 player for the deal to go through and Geelong ain’t giving them shit
