    ROW Myths

    Opinion just gets bandied around as fact on this site -

    Some Myths

    Roos can't coach
    Barlow is soft
    Now Malceski is soft
    Young players will always yield us better results than proven players
    If we'd lost the 05 GF it would have been Ablett's fault
    Barry Hall is finished
    Players run the club
    Nick Davis was hardly done by
    Nick Davis would have won every close game since he was axed
    LRT is not worth his place in the team.
    B1 was finished in 2006
    McViegh couldn't play
    Sydney have drafted badly compared to other clubs

    And the list goes on and on and ...
    Those who have the greatest power to hurt us are those we love.

              Myth or fact?

              Are these myths held by the rest of the world?

                              These are not myths. They are incontrovertible facts. Every one of them.

                                                  I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
                                                  We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

                                                      Peb won't do his best now that he wasn't traded to Melbourne somewhere, and
                                                      We shouldn't be recruiting recycled players, and
                                                      McVeigh can't play (no wait, that was me).

                                                          The ACT comp is too weak to develop AFL-ready players
                                                          Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way you'll be a mile away and he'll be shoeless.
