Just got the club newsletter in the mail. It is generally a pretty good read.
Enjoy the small story about all the expat South Australians who now play for the Swans. They even showed a picture of them all in their SANFL garb. Matthew Davis is wearing the best guernsey of them all, that of North Adelaide, the good old Red and Whites.
The interesting thing about the South Aussies is their comments in relation to living in Sydney. Basically everyone except for Nik Fosdike have said that they are not more than happy here, even to the extent of Matthew Nicks saying he was going to live well after his footy career. And Jarrod Crouch quipped about being given honorary 'nationality' as a New South Welshman by Paul Kelly after playing here for 10 years.
Some of the comments are pure gold. Heath James said "Adelaide used to have cranes on the top of the buildings to make it look as if something was happening"
Matthew Davis said "When I moved here, the club assigned me to live with Barry Hall, so I spent the majority of my home-life living in fear."
Hmm, Fosdike is open about saying he misses Adelaide. Wonder if he would interested in being traded to the Crows or Power for a draft pick etc etc.
I wonder why the Adelaide boys seem to happy to be in Sydney, whereas many of the expat players up from Victoria often can't wait to get home once their careers in Sydney are finished.
