My good source of what is happening in Adelaide Paralowie Power is NOT confident either.

For those who believe in conspiracy theories.

Goldspink is sent interstate because the talk back rage in Melbourne about his inglorious umpiring abilty is reaching a creshendo.

Incompetent, how long do we have to put up with this bloke, sack him, where do the umpiring panel get off thinking that this bloke has ability. Incredulous statements by supporters of all clubs. I don't know of a supporter of any club who has a good word about him.

So send him to Sydney where there is likely to be less noise. If he has another shocker in the City at the Centre of the Universe, all Melbourne Swans supporters should attempt to get an airing on radio and vent their spleens.

Well, I reckon after our win against the Roos last week that we'll beat you.....not overly confident though......Should be a good match.....can't wait!

I'm not confident.

i thought last week was promising. We showed a bit of grunt, which has sadly been missing over the last few weeks. With Port's hot & cold form and being at home... We might just do it.

Don't get me wrong with what I'm about to say because I HATE Goldspink with a firey passion, but given that the umpires are basically telling players they are in the wrong all the time, doesn't it sort of make sense that an umpire hated passionately by all supporters for "obviously" favouring the other team each week is doing his job well, in that he actually seems to show no bias towards any team because we all hate him equally?

Either that or he is so incompetent that everyone mistakes his idiotic decisions for bias.

That could apply to some of them. Did I mention Goldspink, Kennedy, McInerney

I'm a Melbourne-based Swans supporter, but I've already vented my spleen. I have the scar to prove it. I still have my appendix, can I vent that instead?
