Go Armstrong!

Any word on how he's been training so far tabs? Will he get more opportunity this year? He looked good in the matches when he didn't start as the sub...
Anyone? :)

No idea :P

But I do agree with you, he looked pretty good last year. Seemed to have a cool head under pressure. Loved that game against Essendon mid season where he had like, 12 disposals at quarter time or something :o

Maybe not this year, but the year after he should solidify a spot in the 21 with some of our older heads fading away, ie, Shaw, Mattner, Eski etc.

Agree - he will be in the rotation, but cant see him cementing a spot this year.

Ok thanks guys :)

Going by that photo, even though he was in the top 10 for the time trial it doesn't look like he was happy about having to do it haha ;D

sorry mate, for me he is an Eski replacement, someone who can play either mid, wing or HBF. Will be fighting with Esky for that position IMO. 

No word on how his pre-season is going but judging by the TT he looks good.

Found this from j959 in 2011
Kruger won it last year, followed by Gordon. Only 1st, 2nd and 3rd year players did it last year.

Craig Bird is me boy! Seventh in the time trial and picked dpp for fantasy!

Not in DT/SC yet but a player with future relevance I feel. Any of you lovely Swans supporters got any latest info on him? Would be much appreciated :)

I'm not a complete expert on his game, but if he gets shifted from the forward tagger, things could get verrrry interesting...

Vests hurt his scores, 3 last year and unless there are a string of injuries I think 2013 will hold a few more average scores. Still tagging, may get of the leach soon and start pumping big scores ala Kieran Jack.

Would be a bold move to pick him up this year, although elephants do have big .....!

Rampe should see game time next year when his elevated he will be the next Jude Bolton

Thanks boys, really think once he shakes his tagging role he could be very solid!
