Baz on the couch

[NMWBloods]

Standard footy interview.

Thought Baz was ok - I just think the OTC format is really weird. It's more like a press conference as 3 blokes just ask completely random questions about any aspect of the game or the interviewee's life.

But Baz has certainly become a more accomplished media performer - interesting to hear the he is doing - and enjoying - ambassadorial roles for a number of corporates. An unlikely spokesman for Citibank but he clearly enjoys the opportunity.

I think it's great that they have a career's counsellor. Just like school.

My understanding was that the Swans first put it in place and other teams have now followed. It seems like every Swans player will have at least one Sydney house and a career by the time they retire. As most (Leo?) won't be able to walk for many more years, that's a great scheme.

Leo is doing his MBA I believe so he'll be able to afford other people to do his walking for him.

Am I missing something?

He seems to be running ok to me and last time I checked, running was harder than walking.

Ask any ex-footballer - it's when you stop running it hurts.

Obviously, but why single Leo out?

I specified Leo as I don't know of any other Swans player who has hurt himself as much for the team (remember the spleen?)

Before Leo started playing smart (2005), he spent months of going straight onto crutches at the end of each game, starting cortizone injections on Wednesday through Friday, then throwing himself at everything the next weekend. Week after week.

If Nicksy said that he thought the Swans physios would be his best long-term friends, and another ex-Swan sold his house, apparently because he couldn't get up and down the stairs at the age of 35, I think Leo will end up crippled by footy injuries. Some financial security will be helpful.

Article in todays Tele tells us Barry had a slight hamstring strain - pulled out of training on Thursday night and could not stretch or go for runs and could not possible bend down - so explains why he couldnt do as well as previous games. Hope the break will help him recover for the C'woods.

Why did he play then? Given that the conditions didn't suit his game & he couldn't really stretch out (i was wondering why he didn't even contest in a number of marking contests). Why risk making it worse?

Just so they can play a replay of last year's 'love nudge' for mcguire on the big screen

He should have given him another one.
