    Well done Leo.

    Real pity it isn't a home game this weekend.

      Bigger pity that he's never paid hush money. (That we know of)

      Then we could boo him.
      He ate more cheese, than time allowed

        It's hush money, if he did it properly we wouldn't know. That's what Mick told me anyway.

            Let's hope he can celebrate by kicking another goal (or two).

              200 games, and most of them running in circles.

              On a side note: Fixter clocks up 50 games, finally.

                    Well done Leo.

                    I remember his first game well v. Collingwood at the SCG Rd22 1995.

                    Barassi's last game as coach. Leo kicked a monster set shot goal from just outside 50, hard up against the boundary in front of the hill.

                    It's hard to imagine Leo for years on end was basically a high flying HFF who struggled to hold his place in the team.

                      The mark he took in the 2005 GF and ultimately gave us the flag will be in heart forever...Well done on reaching 200 games.

                        I think he hurt his knee and there was a concern about him being able to turn back towards the goals so was directed to the back line to run straight at the ball. Dosen't seem to have stopped him turning any which way . Was an accurate kick for goal as a forward when he did get it and if we had another v.g defensive tall now could be a terriffic foward move during a game to spark something.

                          I also remember he had a glute injury (always slightly embarrassing) and he lost a lot of power in his kicking for a while. In his last year forward I remember him not making the distance from a tick over 35m one day. It had a lot of people shaking their heads at the time.

                            well done leapin leo.
                            Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
                            Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

                              Leo you'll always be a legend with the Swans - especially for the mark in the 2005 Grand Final.

                              Best of luck Leo!
