Mike Pyke and his role in Round 22.

And so it is done - Mike Pyke turned in a very respectable 15 disposal and 33 hit out game. Leuenberger for the Lions did 15 disposals and 29 hit outs. Pyke though had 6 more tackles (with 8 to 2).

As it turned out, the Swans NEEDED to win to secure a home final, and did.

Has Mike Pyke 'arrived' as an AFL footballer?? at very least, he's attained a level of performance and self belief that will set him up for a big pre-season.

Who know's just how it will work next year though? If Mumford, Seaby and White are all fit and healthy, then, where does Pyke fit in?

For now though - next week, Mike Pyke will be a key player in an AFL final. It's not the RUWC. One wonders how it might rate against the 'biggest' games of his career??

I'd definitely describe him as the "international Australian Rules footballer of the year". Sydney have done very well out of Pyke and Tadhg Kennelly - maybe the difference between playing finals and just missing out.
