  1. Dunstan as usual on the money in his pre- game assessment. Reckons the emphasis has to now be on good use of the ball and lessening turnovers.
  2. Glad Terlich is sub - want to see the others play.
  3. The Cross signing was out of the ordinary. Usually these deals fall flat unless a gap needs filling for a premiership contender ala Dew. Can't see any point for us signing Judd, Sewell or O' Keefe. All energies should go getting some mid career types like Vince.
  4. I know a lot of Doggy fans and they are still very unhappy he was not retained by them. They feel their is a leadership vacuum at their club. Their loss is our gain.
  5. Think you should do what your name suggests!
  6. Was a great footballer but very ordinary leader. Something cold and remote about him. Doubt he is a coach in waiting.
  7. You have got to be taking the pi$$.
  8. Hard to fathom how the Crowes lost that game. They have a great midfield plus Brodie Smith and good forwards.
  9. Watching the game tonight, love Rory Sloanes effort and skills. Wish we could get him.
  10. Agree except for Howe. Think he has developed his game a lot this year and is no longer a 1 trick pony. Expect he will eventually go forward again with a more defensive mindset.Grimes and Garland have been very disappointing.
  11. It's interesting how Roos is ramping up the pressure. The warm and cuddly start to the season seems to be over. I think he has now got his head around the list and the cuts may go deep.
  12. There aren't that many senior players. I wonder if Grimes may be under the microscope.
  13. I agree it's very exciting at the moment. it's a good time to reflect on how lucky we are to have Roos and his acolytes. The Swans are still reaping the rewards of his reign and the transition to Horse Longmire is a lesson on how it should be done. I know that Mick Malthouses view that the Swans are the best he has seen is self serving hyperbole nonetheless it is a testament to the influence of Roos. He will see us right because his motivation isn't just cash and ego.
  14. Don't knock school holidays - traffic is much better.
  15. I would have thought Howe has had a much more consistent, if less spectacular, year. Would hate to see him traded.
  16. Roos hinted at a different forward set up this week. Probably means Howie may start up there. Worth a try.
  17. it's easy to forget that Tom is only 21. He's done amazingly well to hold his spot in a backline under so much pressure. A really good signing and hopefully he will be a Dee for life. Can't understand the knockers.
  18. Tappy playslike a muscle bound battering ram. Unfortunately has no agility with poor lateral movement and no subtlety to his game. A little like Beamer I think.
  19. Happy to back the current regime re Dom. They are more informed than any of us. Seems to have lots of natural ability but has much to learn about playing at the highest level. This takes time hence the 2 years.
  20. The old smouldering appendix. Explains many things.
  21. Most other free agents at other clubs have already signed. Chip is long gone.
  22. Emotion is the lot of being a supporter. Take that away and there's little left. Rationality comes a poor second so accept it as part of the deal.
