One of the lads said on Saturday at this level Roger wouldn't have been as good. I disagreed, however we have always had very decent keepers, is Mulder in there ? |  |

The role of the keeper has changed over the years so its unfair to compare. Rog was brilliant in his day but I'm not sure he could play the role of the modern sweeper/keeper. |  | | |

Freestone was a very good lower league keeper who found the change in the back pass law a difficult challenge as he was uncomfortable in possession with a poor range of passing with accuracy a problem. In the modern game a defensive strategy relies even more heavily on good football skills for a keeper. Freestones overall ability would put him at League One level now with the possibility of Championship football but it’s hard to say isn’t it.
Mulder looks decent although unconvincing. |  |

It’s only my opinion but I’d add Jimmy Rimmer De Vries Dai Davies Tony Millington Dwyer and Jon King to those two as well as Dave Stewart | |

I only go back to Millington.
Yes Dave Stewart was good for a couple of seasons.
Rog was good for a decade.
Are you sure about Dai Davies ?
I thought Rog was a far better keeper. | |

True story, an uncle of mine and a friend saw Dai Davies in town around 1981. My uncles mate asked him in a piss taking way why he was called Dai the drop. He punched him on the chin and he went on his arse. Dai said ' that's why, they drop' and casually walked away. For me he reaches a memorable level just for that. My uncles mate was a prick. | |

Length of service wasn’t the issue. How good were these keepers? Freestone was long serving and popular but limited. He wasn’t up to it at the top levels for various reasons. Despite being very good on Divs 3 and 4. | |

Mike Hughes great keeper didn’t make many appearances though?
Fab the best I’ve seen |  | | |

Not really a fair comparison given that goalkeepers these days have been brought up on the backpass rule whereas Rog was from a different era. |  | | |

Fab / Vorm / Freestone in that order.
I'd love to see our keeper command his box as well as Rog
Honourable mention to Mike Hughes. Could have been great
Dai Davies, don't make me 'kin laugh. He was, to coin a phrase utter, utter, shite |  | | |

The main reason being he stayed at the club when it was on its arse and turned down a move to man city, and donated his months wages to the swans cause v Petty. IMO he was more than capable but his loyalty for me got in the way. Didn't make him a great keeper though ( he was ) but players like Rog are very few and far between.
For me he was definitely in the Defries category, maybe Vorm, Fabianski is the best keeper I've seen at Swansea by far mind. | |

Freestone was a brilliant shot stopper, hard as nails and as brave as a lion, at his level. Comparing him to modern keepers is like comparing apples and oranges. Vorm by far the best we've had. [Post edited 28 Dec 2018 13:11]

Game of opinions but Fabianski easily better for me. Vorm’s debut season was awesome but Fabianski was stellar the whole time he was here. |  | | |

At one time Roger was known by many as the best keeper outside of the Premier League. As others are saying it’s a different era now but for me he’s a lot better than any keeper we have at the club at present. [Post edited 28 Dec 2018 11:32]

Dai Davies
That must be a joke
If the Swans had a decent keeper in that first season in First Division, there would have been more than a possibility that Swansea could have won the league that season | | | |

Vorm was nowhere near Fabianski. | | | |

Totally agree on that one
I would put him down as the best keeper I have seen in Swansea | | | |
