So which SYDNEY Magpie will win this year?

Two categories - most swoops, and most injuries. I'm putting my money on the magpie near Percival Road Stanmore for most attacks, and the one near Northcott RD Glebe for most injuries. THE swooping season is not yet half way through!

The M7 magpie has been an institution at his turf for a few years now. He should get the "Mr Consistency" award at least. He got under my wife's cable ties to 'slam' her on her shoulder the other day.
