Can’t rely on talent’: Ex-coach demands Swans ‘put good players on the market’ after GF disaster

Former Sydney coach Paul Roos has called for his old side to be bold during this off-season and consider trading a star player, as the Swans are left to rue yet another grand final embarrassment.

Maybe not taking a full forward that could barely run into a Grand Final wasn’t a very smart idea…

There’s reasons they lost that don’t involve the playing group. Maybe a role player or two (doubt they could afford much else) that have won premierships might be good additions.

Gotta hate that Has is the only one with some Pickett news!! Tease!!

Gabelich went with it yesterday first, so its not just Hase.

Seemed odd. Especially if they were also carrying an injured Heeney. But this is the second schlacking, so questions will be asked. And their whole midfield and backline seemed uncompetitive.
Age aside our current group have a habit of failing when there is any expectation. So, at some point we will probably start wondering as well, if it doesn't resolve itself.

For what it is worth, Freo now has a very good list. It’s time for you to throw caution to the wind and get the final pieces in place. It doesn’t matter if it’s Bolton, Pickett or others. It’s time for Freo to put up and stop rooting around. Richmond topped up and paid overs for Prestia(pick6), Geelong 3 first rounders for Cameron. Brisbane a top 10 for Daniher. With the competition at the top very even just a little quality add on can make the difference. Good luck.

Wasn’t Daniher a free agent? Also there is not one parallel universe where Freo get a key forward for Pick 10 let alone just salary lol.

Who'd have thought the bell-end Tiger's posters coming here to tell us it's our time to pay whatever it takes (to the Tigers, purely coincidentally I am sure) to get the final piece aren't the type to know anything or do basic research.

Really makes you think.

What if Freo is looking into Oliver as the Fyfe replacement we need...
PS I'm not saying it is/isn't a good idea.

We don't need a Fyfe replacement. He's been replaced for years. If you mean a big body, then Johnson and NOD can step up.

 

[Mogumber]

He's on a million bucks a year, for the next 4 or 5 years

 

[Spirit Level]

Where is CTD these days. Need more from him.

An idiot poster tried to have a dick measuring contest with him, outed his source and caused him not to post ITK news anymore

 

[Purple Jesus]

Bellend on the couch says Chad is zero chance this year but hard to be confident on that looking at how upset he was after that loss. That's someone who's leaving, and feels heartbroken about that.

Who was CTD source?

 

[Van_Dyke]

You appear to vastly overestimate the knowledge of the people on that show...

Adam Cooney getting a gig for years says it all

 

[Sewell21]

Too much bias on here IMO but if you threw together the right posters maybe.

Seems the right opposition posters don’t come onto our board except the occasional neutral fan of a club not involved in our trades at all.

I think most of the actual journalists on trade radio actually do okay tbh - It’s the random ex-players that knew how to play footy but never really had any reason to care about trades or drafts that know ** all. It’d be better if they put on ex-list managers instead but there seems to be an opinion in the media that being an ex-player whose name people recognise is more important than getting someone who knows what the ** they’re talking about.

Like SoS or Rendell?

 

[Dockeroo]

Like SoS or Rendell?

They were ok but had very limited knowledge of freo lists.

SOS was obsessed with ex GWS players

 

[Walkingwounded]

What would he cost?

6 year contract, over 1 million dollars. That would be a massive risk for someone to take that on, after this year

I thought we had a no DHead policy!

Same guy who asked this gf to marry him with a burger ring.

 

[Tundrawolf]

Who was CTD source?

He's got the best source, but probs not up to me to share. Probably don't have to tell you all here that whatever he says is pretty much gospel.

And who was the idiot poster ?

 

[Lach72]

Who was CTD source?

Could tell you but we’d have to kill you after

Mmhmmm

 

[Dockeroo]

This is funny. I wonder who the “Richmond fan who works in the media and is in the know” might be??
One guess is all we need lol

 

[DragoDelph]

Yeah. Probs best to leave it in the past.

When people share info, it’s with the best intentions, sometimes things change hourly, or the info is intentionally vague or wrong, we can’t help that.

No one who share info should ever be expected to share the source.

You either get info, and decide yourself what you want to do with it, or no one shares anything.

 

[DragoDelph]

Can we keep the guessing games of sources out of this please?

Let’s not scare away other people, or get anyone in trouble.

 

[Tundrawolf]

Just looking on the Sydney board, many on there seem to be coming around to the idea of trading Warner this year - obviously they are thinking WC because of pick 3 but it's probably not something that would have even been considered by their supporter group two weeks ago.

Is the idiot poster who screwed it all up still fair game though ?
