He doesn't name O'Loughlin who is the same age or players who are fractionally younger (Crouch, Matthews). He's not planning any further than 2010 because that's when he's riding into the sunset. I hope it pays off because I will still be a Swans supporter in 2010.
      Glad someone touched on this.

      In O'Loughlin, here is a bloke who came as a 17yo, played through the good and the bad, three coaches, dodgy knees and other injuries, kicked 400 goals, has been in 3 GFs, is a deadset role model, and next year will break the club's ALL TIME games record FFS - but o no, he doesn't get a line, like a few others.

      Paul Roos - go and get . . . . .

        Gee....I wonder if Mick will even bother to play next year....no doubt he'll be shattered.

        Rumour has it that O'Keefe is quitting the club because he didnt get a mention. Kennelly was poised to sign for post 2009 too, but he got wind of the article in advance.

        Wake up.

          No surprise but you've missed the point entirely.

            No, no.....you've missed the point.

            I was trying to contradict your "tongue in cheek" thread to goad you into coming down from the lofty clouds of uber intelligence to reply to my post.

            And you fell for it.

              Roos should just make Goodsey captain and let him run with it. Then Roos can turn all his attention back to the holy three.

              Those three aren't the only players who are reaching pensioner status.

              Roosey "should" want another premiership for all the team, or for none of them. Not just some of them. He should make up his mind.
              Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.

                  Can you point me to the part where he says he doesn't want a premiership for anyone but the so-called 'holy three' ? I can't seem to find it.

                          Roos also said Swans co-captains Barry Hall, Brett Kirk and Leo Barry deserved to be given every chance to win another flag.

                          Yep, he only mentioned the holy three.
                          Maybe he should have said, "we have an obligation to half our team to give them the best chance....."

                          They might be co-captains, but IN MY MOST HUMBLEST OF OPINIONS, they are not necessarily the best players out there.

                            He still didn't say anything about not doing it for the rest of the players, and ig you're suggesting Roos only cares about the three captains then i think you've got him very wrong.

                              I think he planned to give them seven medallions each, and keep the extra one for himself.....?? We all know he only coaches for himself anyhow.

                              Ahhhhhhh!!!
