Swans are interested in White, Kerr and Didak!

[UglyDuckling]

Are you suggesting Ablett sweetens the deal?

No, just a good opportunity to get rid him

[Big Al]

In Diddles case that would be 22 Hells Angels?

If we did have 22 Hells Angels I bet we start winning the free kick counts.

[Big Al]

I bags sitting next to you when we have 22 dickheads running around!!

Count me in on that you two.

Done...now bring on the dickheads Roosy.

[ScottH]

Didak to remain a pie?!?

Didak will today break his silence about the events that forced Collingwood to suspend him for lying about a weekend bender with teammate Heath Shaw.

The interview, to be aired on The Footy Show, has not yet been recorded but will include a statement from Didak that he believes his future is at Collingwood.

While Didak's position is expected to be influenced by whether a rival club offers the Magpies an enticing trade, his management group is emphatic that he will stay.

Manager Craig Kelly, of Elite Sports Properties, said yesterday Didak's latest contract meant he was not going anywhere.

[robamiee]

Wouldn't want any of them..
White past his best.
Didak, too much of unknown offield that will force internal suspensions.
Kerr not a dominate midfielder with a hard tag on him.

[giant]

Does that include a bloke who is apparently shagging 3 different women at the moment, or another who paid hush money after an incident in an Adelaide park?

Oh look, the ghost of Sanecow!

Didak wants to stay a Magpie

http://news.realfooty.com.au/sport/sorry-didak-wants-to-be-a-magpie-forever-20080918-4jim.html

This is where his passion obviously lies. Even if Collingwood were to cut him loose, would a move to Sydney bring out the best in him? It might take him a year to mend his broken heart!

[Mr Magoo]

Forget it , we wont get any of them (or in whites cae we dont need him). Our best bet would be cousins if he wants to stay out of the limelight. No need to trade anyone valuable and with the latest retirements, likely space in the cap.

So? Hall and MO'L have both been (and still are) brilliant players, and in MO'L's case is likely to be remembered as one of the greatest Swans ever on-field, but while it's natural for us as fans to view out own players through rose-coloured glasses (I have been guilty of it too), it's naive to think that the Swans (or any side for that matter) are a team of 22 outstanding blokes.

Edit: this isn't intended as a slight on any of our players' characters, more referring to the fact that they are all human and have their own unique strengths and failings, as do we all.

Sure, by why go after an incident that happened last millenium and a single bloke who's doing ok with the birds? Couldn't he at least have referred to the infamous Tadhg "dacking" incident?

I think everyone's eyes will be firmly fixed on Cousins wherever he goes.

Kerr has "form"....

Kerr has had on field issues such as head butting, testicle groping and numerous off the ball striking offences. And to add to that, he's had a spreadsheet of off field issues such as;

Being involved in a brawl with team mate Ben Cousins at a Perth nightclub, in which Cousins punched Kerr in the face during the club's end of season celebrations. Later the same night, Kerr pushed Cousins down a flight of stairs, breaking his arm.

In 2004 Kerr was charged with forging a prescription. Kerr was given the blank prescription by a person at a party and went to a 24-hour chemist to buy 50 valium tablets. The court fined him a total of $400 and made a spent conviction order. He was also fined $5,000 by the club and was be required to complete community service throughout the football season.

In January 2007 Kerr was charged with assault following a party in Perth. Kerr is understood to have been at a farewell party for his sister's friend in Attadale before trouble erupted shortly after midnight. It was understood that Kerr's sister complained about being touched inappropriately by another partygoer and a fight erupted soon after on the street. An 18-year-old man suffered a broken nose and broken tooth and was taken to Fremantle Hospital by a friend for treatment.Kerr was charged with two counts of assault occasioning bodily harm. Kerr was fined $2,000 for the major assault charge. His father has not yet faced court.

On 25 February 2007 Kerr was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct after an altercation with a taxi driver. Kerr was later arrested again while at a training session, and further charged with assault occasioning bodily harm and wilful damage. Police prosecutor Gary Flynn told the court Kerr saw the taxi and jumped screaming and shouting onto the boot. The taxi driver got out of his car and was attacked by Kerr, Sgt Flynn said. Kerr's lawyer John Prior said his client had gone out to dinner and "consumed too much alcohol" and "made a crucial bad judgement call". Kerr pleaded guilty to the charges and was fined.

On 23 March 2007 information was released that implicated Kerr in drug dealing over the phone. Kerr's conversations with convicted drug dealer Shane Waters relating to a "big bag of horse @@@@" were recorded by police phone taps nearly four years ago.

Your point is what? He is a great footy player we need a great footy player- if he fits in well with the player group thats all that should matter.

Who voted you the morales cop?? And if someone touched my sister I would end up in court as well!!

Im sure we dont know or hear about many things our players have been up to
off the field, dont forget the Swans can still move resonably anomiously around Sydneywith little media attention.

Cheers

[Robbo]

The assault is understandable, but the dealings with drug dealers and "altercations" with cab drivers stories puts me off.

Not the sort of character you want at the club.

My point is obvious. He thinks he's a gangster.

Not only off field, but on field. Do you have a problem reading? He's had numerous trips to the tribunal for undisciplined acts that includes pathetic acts like headbutting and testicle groping.

His attitude stinks.
