Jeff Wells retires and names Bobby Skilton the best ever

[SWANSBEST]

Some misguided people on this site believed that Wells hated the Swans . He has recently retired and he has named Bobby Skilton as his best ever player and Alex Jesaulenko , ex Eastlake/Carlton legend / Saints coach as his favourite player. I may be in a minority but I will miss his scriblings.

Sorry that is bull@@@@, all RWO's knew that Wells loved the Sydney Football Club and was one of the most ardent and committed supporters of AFL in NSW.

What I and other people disagreed with was the cocky and self interested way he often denigrated other clubs in order to prove his point when questioning aspects of the Sydney Football Club.

He did nothing but reinforce views down here in Melbourne and the other AFL states that all Sydney supporters and writers know nothing about the game, which is not correct.

But it balances up because I find few people in Victoria know much about the Swans. Though they are good on SA teams, okay on WA teams and have now noticed that Qld has a team.
