... that'll keep us going now till at least the 7th January (when we all get back from hollies).

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

5/10 - Definitely hot/cold, had some great games down back taking contested marks but had a real quiet period from Rounds 14-18. Could be used as a KPP but there was talk by commentators to throw him in the forward line.
I only support one team: The SYDNEY SWANS!!!!! :adore
6/10
Best year by far from Ted. I thought he played a good support role to B2 when Baz went down and helped keep the hordes at bay when we most needed him to.
I've grown quite fond of Ted. After the first half of a season with the Swans I thought he might be a little soft but then he suddenly seemed to "get it" and since then he has consistently put his body on the line and his head over the ball. I know it's not relevant to this discussion but his efforts in the 2006 GF, where he made plenty of mistakes but ran himself to an absolute standstill, will remain for a long time.
A few super games this year but others when he was outclassed by his opponent. Probably always going to be on the fringes of the best 22 but, like Kirk, I reckon he always gave everything he possibly could.
Continues to improve at a club where he is being given a chance to show his wares.
The start of the season poor, culminating in him being dropped for one game (only to win a late recall), and that kick up the bum inspired him to lift his game.
Overall not a bad year, but not as good as he is capable of.
