Bruce Almighty: are you also a Royal Demon? I can't go to the Swans game but will be there next week to assess Daniel Rich's claims on the No. 1 crown.

Hey dm... Could you do us all a favour here on d'land and let us know your thoughts when you go? The more we know the better... For us at least...

The best part about the Blues win. They're a step closer to not getting their hands on anymore good players.

If they finish 10th they'll still have about pick 6 or 7

Dapper: (I'm new to this & don't get the quote thing). I'll certainly report on Rich & hope to be with a better judge than me at the game to assess. I'm right behind all posters who say we need someone with the marketability of NN but it worries me when I read something in (I think) the herald sun about NN that says he is 'dominating' in the WAFL. being here &, mostly, just listening to games -- i've been to only one, east perth v. claremont, but hope to see more -- i don't think he's the only show in town. i've read more about him on 'land & 'ology than in the local papers, who are just waking up to his draft potential. from an MFC point of view I worry that Naitanui fever will blind us to rich's value & a couple more. goes without saying I'd love NN at our club but hope we don't stuff up for the 'good news story' -- the cockatoo-collins twins come to mind (though, obviously NN is much more talented).
