Cunningham promoted to senior list

Sucked in GWS :p

A deserved promotion for him and after his surprise Round 1 sub cameo, he knuckled down in the reserves playing a lot of run-with roles in the midfield that would have been invaluable for his footy education. What is his best position in the coming years? I reckon this kid is as fast as Jetta and Rohan, it's just that it hasn't been widely publicised. The potential image of him steaming down the wings in full flight results in me beginning to salivate like one of Pavlov's dogs, but probably a defensive forward role will be more likely. He is a good tackler and has an excellent work ethic and his closing speed could cause many a half back flanker to think twice about that extra step, but he also loves a goal and has a big kick on him and will also hurt the opposition on the scoreboard.

Yes, he is no bystander. The lad reminds me of David Bolton, but with a better kick!
 
I hope Harry is off somewhere working on his tank. I can see him starting a s a HF and slowly making his way into the middle. I fully expect the bandwagon to be crushed under the weight of many by the time he gets to 50 games

I don't blame them for passing on Cunningham. With a midfield of Coniglio, Shiel, Greene, Ward, Scully, Treloar, Tyson he struggles to get close to a game.

I like the look of him, but do you think we can/will play both him and Jed Lamb?
 
Has there been any official confirmation of this?

Couldn't find anything on the Swans site or the AFL site (other than his early season promotion as a long term injury cover).
 
At NEAFL level he started playing out of the centre square towards the end of the season. He has the potential to be a line breaker centre clearance player as he develops, in the mold of a Nathan Foley, Ryan Griffen or even a Paul Kelly.

Havent seen any confirmation yet and would have expected to by now, could always be a mistake but its a strange one to make.

List Lodgement One was due yesterday, I assume that's where the information was gleaned from.
 
Awesome news. Really really love the look of him and hope he can find a regular spot in the coming seasons. I can see him, Jets & Rohan just tearing it up big time in the next couple of years. Count me on the bandwagon early Gongswan :D
I didn't see that much of him this year, but my first htought was "ready made blood"
