    He has some explaining to do about his disposal skills, I think.

    I really wish they would trade Jude, he is the most over rated midfielder we have had for ages.
    Oh except for his draftsake : Fosdike, in fact lets just trade Ricky Barham.

      I really liked Dempsters game, he impressed me and looked really solid coming off half back, looks ready to step up. Vogels was pretty good and has a good set of hands.

      McVeigh was ok but has to work hard on skills his foot passing is ordinary but he wasnt alone there. Schneider is the same -footpassing ordinary.

      I though Spriggs was an average player at Geelong and although its too early he doesnt look much better in red & white.

      LRT looked very good and when Schauble and Goodes come back in LRT will probably hold James out?

      Okeefe was better as the game went on, Nicks looked good but will they play him down back? I think it will depend on the opposition on the day.

      A good hit out for the swans the depth in the squad looks better than what it has for years.

      Cheers

        Dempster really impressed me. Shows great confidence dashing out of HB...IMO the move has to be made this year for dempster to take over kennelly at HBf and move the irishman to the wing/HF

          Agreed, still bugs me to this day every time I'm asked why I support an interstate team. Yesterday both me and Charlie got asked that question and I was also asked why so many Swans fans were wearing Red Vee jumpers????

            captain, were you at the game mate? because the telly must have shown nicksy in a different light. he gotted stupidly (and rightly) pinned for holding the ball, and cost us a couple of goals. a player of his experience shouldnt be making those errors at this stage of his career.

            and diego, dont get me started of the mutts fans. just remember most of them are missing vital pairs of chromosomes, and dont take anything they say seriously.....

            cheers

              With all the Mickey Mouse changes in the WC, the rule change that is needed is: you can run as far as you want towards the opposition goal without getting done for running too far.

                that wasnt his fault, it was his teammates... they shouldve been yelling "YOU'RE HOT!!!" thats why when he did get pinged he looked around at his teammates!

                  Certainly the whole defence needs to take some of the blame, and it was probably indicative of lots of young, inexperienced players out there who probably didn't realise they needed to shout out or felt intimidated at the prospect of telling a senior player what to do.

                  Better that they make this kind of mistake during play time rather than when the serious stuff starts.

                      I coouldn't believe what I was watching when I saw her on the screen like that.
                      Couldn't believe it either.

                      I went to a dogs game at Western Oval in pluggers first year. The old dears in front of me couldn't look when the dogs were kicking for goal, and that was in the 1st qtr.

                      After seeing there conversion rate in the last few years I now understand.

                        Yeah but unlikely myself, your from Tasmania and as such the question is fairly justified.

                            Yep Spriggs was the culprit who should of told him that he was going to get tackled.

                              Kirk was standing pretty close to the incident as well.

                                Whats the bet that Spriggs becomes the new "love to hate player" on RWO ?
