    And just to add Buchanan's brother Liam has been selected to play for Victoria (cricket) next week. Some of the Swans will fly down to watch him.

          one of at least two good choices he could have made.
          then again, i think it would be worth trying 15-16 players on field so what would i know

                For mine Kirk showed more on-field leadership throughout the finals and would have been the better choice. The cinyc in me says bazza has a better iconic value for a Sydney market and may influence the decision. Not too shabby a second choice though

                  I assume he will still be part of the "leadership group" and contribute in the same way in 2006. I am officially on the Kirk bandwagon but Bazza does seem more marketable.

                    According to the SMH:

                    No to the first statement
                    Yes to the second





                    "No, that's completely incorrect," Roos said. "We've [the match committee] got our thoughts, but certainly it hasn't got to that stage. I haven't spoken to the board and said Barry is going to be captain. As I said, that talk is incorrect.
                    I want Kirk!!

                      We all know Hall was damned lucky to play at all in the GF. A Captain doesn't do things that can cost a premiership.

                        I hope he's made captain. His mark and goal in the last quarter of the GF is enough to suggest to me that he's up to it. That goal gave the rest of them a bit more belief I reckon.

                          No Hall, no premiership.

                            The leadership group has taken a battering this year, with Maxfield, Ball and Schauble leaving (I think the three of them were in it).

                            Under Roos it has been the captain plus ten others. My tips... Hall, Mathews, C Bolton, Williams, Kennelly, O'Loughlin, Barry, J Bolton, Crouch, Kirk and Goodes.
                            We hate Anthony Rocca
                            We hate Shannon Grant too
                            We hate scumbag Gaspar

                              Good point Charlie. I'd be happy with any number of players as Captain.

                              I think Hall needs the captaincy more than Kirk does.
