The Sydney Swans became an entity in 1982, when the then-VFL relocated South Melbourne, long known as the Bloods, to form the first non-Victorian team in the competition we now know as the Australian Football League.
After many decades of misery, the Swans have emerged as perennial contenders. They have played in five grand finals for two flags since 2005, when they ended a 72-year premiership drought with a nail-biting victory over the West Coast Eagles.
Sydney stamped their mark on the competition early in 2024 by winning 13 of their first 15 matches, giving them breathing room in the back half of the season. However, the Swans’ weaknesses started to show in the final six weeks of the season, as they split those games and headed into the finals as minor premiers.
For the second time in three years, the Swans won their way into the grand final, but just like in 2022, Sydney were smashed from the opening bounce as they went down to Brisbane by a massive 60 points. John Longmire stepped down from the head coach role, making way for Dean Cox to take over for 2025.
Can Dean Cox take the swans back to the “big dance” in his first year in charge? Let’s check in with the bookies and see how the Swans are shaping up in the major AFL betting markets for 2025.

- The Sydney Swans enter 2025 with a fresh start under new coach Dean Cox after another grand final heartbreak. Boasting a strong list and minor premiership form from 2024, the Swans remain genuine flag contenders—if they can overcome their finals struggles when it matters most.
- The Sydney Swans are strong contenders for a top-four finish in 2025. With a talented list, minor premiership form from 2024, and fresh leadership under Dean Cox, they have the tools to compete at the top. At +140 with online bookmakers, the Swans represent good value if they can get off to a quick start again in 2025.
- Sydney’s star midfielder Errol Gulden finished inside the top five in the 2023 Brownlow Medal and appears primed to make another run in 2025. After a breakout 2024 season showcasing elite ball use and endurance, Gulden’s consistency and ability to influence games make him a genuine contender. AFL betting sites have Gulden marked as a +2000 to claim the highest individual honour.

Chad Warner
Born: 19/5/2001
Games: 85
Goals: 78
Position: Midfielder
Chad Warner is one of the most exciting players on the Sydney Swans’ list, let alone in the AFL, due to his explosive midfield impact and game-breaking ability. Known for his burst from stoppages, elite speed, and powerful kicking, Warner’s blend of toughness and flair makes him a key playmaker. If he adds consistency to his dynamic performances, he could elevate to elite status, driving Sydney’s premiership push under new coach Dean Cox.
Joel Amartey
Born: 2/9/1999

Position: Forward
Joel Amartey is one player to watch for the Sydney Swans in 2025 due to his emerging role as a key forward with the potential to become a dominant force. Known for his strong marking ability, athleticism, and impressive mobility for his size, Amartey provides a dynamic target inside 50. His improved goal-kicking accuracy and ability to apply pressure at ground level make him a versatile threat. If he can maintain consistency and stay injury-free, Amartey could be a game-changer in Sydney’s forward line, playing a pivotal role in their push for success under new coach Dean Cox.
