      They're struggling pretty badly at the moment, but I am pretty sure they already know that. If they can't fill the bay they really should move them on and bring in some school kids that get tickets for class projects.

        I voted that they're an embarassment....

        I really would have liked to have voted a lot higher but they are fairly average. At times, I think the visiting cheer squad out does them!

        I wish them all the luck they need and hope they do better this year. they have my full support. But somehow, I can't see it happening.

        It's probably more important that we re-create that "fortress" sydney we had a few years ago. But that's up to everyone, not just the cheer squad.

        Cheering and supporting undoubtedley can lift the team and get them across the line. We just don't have that at the moment. And personally, I think it's because we don't play anywhere near enough night home games... And Telstra Stadium doesn't count. Friday night games were by far and away the best for crowd involvement, IMO.

          Cheer Squads are unfortunately just not part of the Sydney culture. In NRL they either don't exist at all or have a far different form.

          The Sydney CS would be much better off located at the Noble stand end but unfortunately the SCG Trust won't allow it. In the Noble Stand there would be a natural infusion of a lot of kids (and maybe some not-so-kids) from the surrounding members.

          I thought this year might be the opportunity to make that move (with Bay22 under reconstruction) but they have just (temporarily) moved one bay clockwise. Maybe if the Swans took a stance on the issue with the Trust?

                  Most of the Swans CS and the swans supporters from Sydney are a little lack luster in their enthusiasm for the game IMO or frankly just dont understand it.

                              Have there part in the game, such is the history and culture of AFL. But seems out of place outside of Victoria.
