Sydney players constant whingers

I think it is straightforward.

No Swans player can do wrong, to any degree, when it comes to treatment of umpires, off field antics, or hairstyles.

All umpires, referees and other officials (except, of course RWO/BF moderators) are ignorant, cheating a********.

Anglicans?

Poor bloody Gieschen

I think we all know that the "umpires source" was Goldsphincter.

Relevant article in todays Terrorgraph, with Gieschen denying allegation that Swans players are whingers. Also includes information about Sydney's free kick ratio this season.

Whether they whinge or not, I'd still like to see Paul Roos give them a similar instruction to what Mark Thompson gave Geelong, just don't talk back, and see where that gets us.

Might not make a difference, but maybe the only way to get a better deal from the maggots is to think like them. It's been said before, but whinging like you're Lleyton Hewitt disputing every second line call isn't the best way to earn an umpire's respect.

Sure, whether their respect is worth earning is another thing - but they do control the game, after all...

It's official: Hall no whinger

AFL umpires boss Jeff Gieschen went into damage control yesterday when he left an "it wasn't me" message on the phone of Sydney Swans coach Paul Roos.

Geeeeees! Apparantly there's an article going around that Geoff Gieschen went into damage control yesterday when he left an "it wasn't me" message on the phone of Sydney Swans coach Paul Roos.

Similar story to the Hun's in The Age - Barry Hall is OK and the Swans are OK too. Mind you I agree with the idea that Roos should tell the team to say nuffin' - the fans generally say enough for them.
