Changes To Back Of Jumper For 2005 Finals...

[JohnnyNova]

CitiBank will appear on the back of the jumper starting next week.
Is this bad karma changing somehing like this at such a crucial time or will the change bring good fortune in September unlike the QBE logo?

Discuss.

Yes, we should forfeit the finals and not do any airplane travel.

Ah the Theory in search of a Conspiracy!

Well I'm not sure he is that concerned about what the opposition really think. Personally I think he has been more inwardly focussed, with all of the lessons and coaching designed to have the players at peak levels mentally and physically for the last month of action.

The last time we had a really big year in terms of percentage (in my memory) was 1987.

Yet we fell in a heap by the end. Too much over-confidence, peaked too early.

As long as I am wearing my red and white hooped socks we should be okay.

P.S Great ku for the club getting such an impressive and large second teir sponsor. Should mean our jumper price is up there with Collingwood in terms of what companies have to shell out

No problem making major change during Heritage Week. Changing jumper no problem. GO SWANS.

if we win the flag it'll be hailed as a masterstroke, but if we lose we'll blame it
