Im sure he will still be a gun, but Im really hesitant about that price. Reckon I might hold off for a while and upgrade to him later in the season.

People said that last season, yet got cained without him.

Yeah, his price will scare a lot of people off but he is a lock for me.

he will trip over a bar stool in February and hurt his knee then...

in Rd 3 he will cop a knock in the first quarter on 7 DT points and aggravate his knee and miss 4 weeks, so then weeks later I will upgrade and get him at well under 600k ;)

He's not expensive. It's all about value for dollars and swanny is 100% worth every cent you pay for him

Not if you started with Ablett instead.

A bit pricey. Not sure if he can maintain 130 ave, but anything around 125 should be acceptable.

Kellogscrunchynut · September 12, 2012, 07:00:14 PM

I won't be sure if I will start with him until the opening round.

Ricochet · September 12, 2012, 08:08:33 PM

will be the first player selected into my side come next year when DT opens

People have said that for abut the last 4 seasons, and he keeps proving them wrong :P he's never not been in my 30 (or 33) for one round since I started dt, and that ain't gonna change.
