No we don't. You don't change for changes sake. You try and end up with the best Board you can get. Some are very new to the Board and some may be worth keeping.

I hate to admit this but went for eggs while there was banana bread on the menu. I feel ashamed of myself. BTW the eggs were great.

He just needs to get games. Should play every game for the rest of the season. Same with Jimmy, Terlich, Kent, Clisby etc. They are the future. Even thought Nicho was better.

No the trick is getting him fit and finding him an engine.

Will advise after breakfast.

How does Byrnes get a game? He was hopeless last week.

While he missed a couple of goals, thought Troy Davis played a very good game today. i also thought Pedersen was excellent. Josh Tynan had a good one too. Thought Taggart struggled. Gillies and Jetta will be gone at season's end.

Agree.

Says it all. Couch has had plenty of the ball and turned it over often. His skills were poor today.

Agree.

He was not the sole reason why Mike Pyke is doing well, but he contributed. He may however be the sole reason why the Swans gained their now famous culture. I think he developed it and instilled it and now the leaders continue it on. The end of the last game he coached the Swans as caretaker in 2002, saw the players run to him, embrace him and chant his name. That show of emotion, in no small way, convinced the Swans hierarchy that he was the man for the job.

Funny how the nastiest Coach hooks up with the club so many hate.

I am hoping for Port to win, to put a break on the Blues and for the Pies to then smash the Blues next week. Love to see them finish ninth.

Unless you want to be condemned, he can only be taken, roughly where his ability warrants.

A lot of the inaccuracies that get put out by the media, remain so, because no one corrects them. A strong leader who comes out and corrects the facts, usually puts an end to the stories. We have failed dismally in that regard.

I am currently reading the book written by Roos and his wife Tammi " Life is Sport, Sport is Life". From what I have read, we can all rest assured that money won't be the main factor and if his wife is against it, end of story. Not only is Roos working in the media and for the Swans, he is also a very sought after motivational speaker. He doesn't need the money. He will do it if he is motivated and his family is happy about it. As a side note, if the book is accurate, he is a very decent person and his family have very good values. PS. Tanking would have been totally repugnant to him.

Agree.

Doubt the Lions are bitching about Clark. They were happy to swap him to us for a high pick, rather than to Freo for a worse one. Also, he hasn't played much in the last two years.

Usually is. I think the icing has cheese in it, believe it or not.

That's like going on a date with a very pretty girl and she cancels, but sends her friend, who looks like Ben Hur's avatar, instead.

You are calling the Queen a d1ckhead, are you?

Absolutely. Dawes limped off last game. Frawley may not come up. Sellar will probably play with Casey and Pedersen and Magner will be kept for the Dees, just in case. That is an advantage to the Blues in their game against Casey, as all of their emergencies can play.

And have racehorses.

I can't see AFL helping us with money and not on the field with some draft help. If we continue to perform on the field like this year we will need more money. I t just makes sense to help us on the field as well. I could also imagine a Coach coming to us would want an AFL guarantee of some help on the field as well. As mentioned in other threads it doesn't have to be a PP. It could be a mini draft type of help with say two picks we have to trade. That could get us some experienced players and an extra draft pick or two in this years draft without compromising the draft.

History shows it doesn't bode wellArticle on Wade Lees by Samantha Lane in the Age. Wade copped 18 months and never even possessed the product, let alone used it.
