It's not surprising (as I say I kinda knew already) but it's the extent of it, the professionalism of it, the absolutely integrated club-wide restraints on transparency and authenticity. It depresses me.

Gone are days of Warwick Cappers elocution lessons the club made him take which by the way was a bust going by his linguistic skills these days. Seriously though some of them need that protection from some really a-hole journalists who will do a run of the mill interview and try and get a slip up and turn it into a story.

 

[Wolfgang West]

ha ... blakey's build for an elite aussie rules player is almost alarming!

Disturbing to say the least. His body looks like the skeleton suit Johnny Karate or whatever his name was in Karate Kid.

Buckley and hodge are rippers imo

Hodge is fantastic. Amazing the perception of them as players and the way they carry on field until they go into the media. Gentlemen as well. Cotchin ? Well my perception is still firmly in place. Dill.

Hodge's ability to make a comment about what he's seeing and how he thinks it will unfold, and then it unfolds exactly that way, is freakish.

True. And Buckley has always been a superb analyst. His main fault is that he can get a bit superior. In recent times I've been quite impressed with King's analysis too. Riewoldt was looking good.

As mentioned earlier in the podcast version of Gettable.

Sounds like Rowbottom is well on the way to staying. Twomey's mail is usually pretty solid.

Hodge doing his best to get people into debt they can't afford

 

[SM]

Like yours it’s an opinion , he thrives on gossip and rumour. So what he got Dimmer going to GC right - that’s one out how many rumours??

No he thrives on having good sources in the game. Weird post to randomly pull up though.

That belongs in the opinion thread I reckon if you want to take it further.

do you think we should let foxfooty know who our captain is and JPK has retired?

 

[Ticky009]

They've actually got ALL of them wrong given that Mills is the sole captain this year.

 

[Ticky009]

Should I watch 360 people? Anything Swans related?

and we are celebrating our 150th

If LRT and Aliir had a baby it would be Blakey.

 

[J_Moore]

Disturbing to say the least. His body looks like the skeleton suit Johnny Karate or whatever his name was in Karate Kid.

He’s just got short clavicles so no shoulders. He’s otherwise pretty robustly built these days.

Agree with Kingy. Used to think he was too negative but he has changed over the last few years to the extent that I could listen to him for hours. Honest and Inciteful.

Presuming you are watching 360 people in Sydney, one of them is bound to related to the swans in one way or another. If you are overseas, I don’t like you chances so much.

Love this. The lads wearing their junior kit

 

[bloodsbigot]

I approve of this because it at least forces them to raise their standards in the media a little. Humiliate them a tad. Otherwise we'll just get another BT in the future. I hate how footy players just think they can waltz in with no training or personality. Voice training and a thesaurus at the very least.

Yarrawonga Pigeons!

Is it just me, or is that faintly hilarious?

Help me out here. What is "a sfellow"??? Can't even think what it might be if it's a typo.
