I don't think he is a midfielder but like a lot of players he probably needs to be able to play there for a few minutes here and there

He's Josh Jenkins but 180cms tall. Hard pass.

Just Adelaide have offered Mitch McGovern 2 years 350 per year.
Seriously low balled .Salary cap must be tight

Does that mean he is then eligible for free agency?

Apparently Freo have offered over 700 ! Interesting question on Lever, you'd imagine it would have to be more than that .
Salary cap must be very tight , as you'd think McGovern should be earning more coin than that

Re: Who would you have JMac target this year?
Do we need to chase anyone ? We have Adams and Collins coming through, plenty of mids and Redpath, English.
Could we just go for draft picks ?

I'm a firm no. Josh Kelly in particular, or Lever make us much better. I'm over drafting kids like Hrovat (maybe Webb too) with good picks and getting SFA in return. As for Lever, we can play with Adams or Young forward (as they were as juniors) and not go chasing tall forwards for many years and stop journos reporting the annual Sam Reid or John Butcher stories. Guaranteed top end talent coming in is just fine by me.

But this comes with a cost of salary cap , let's face it we are already premiers cant be too
Much we need, Cordy is coming along great as well .. We will be one of the youngest sides going around next year again with maybe Murphy and Boyd retiring, the kids are only going to get better.
I'm not a fan of recruiting from other teams just because the media thinks it's a must with all star players out of contract. It's kind of like expected but it's not a rule.
I do agree Lever is a gun a Romsey boy and would love to come home and to us but is it a must have at the price we pay?

To quote D. Trump, it's all about the deal (years and dollars). We still have salary cap room according to Dalrymple, so if we can use that cap and a first rounder to see if we can immediately improve the list then I'm all for it. The media have no role in forming what we need to do.

Not confirmed but highly likely:
Swans will re-sign both Sam Reid and Zak Jones to long-term deals, possibly 4 years each. Have thwarted significant interest in Victoria
