    He is our most productive forward by a country mile.
    Actually our forward line functioned pretty well without him last year after the Staker incident

      He has copped a 3 week suspension, with 2 weeks if he takes the early plea.

        Rekon the writings on the wall for Bazza.
        The players have spoken on this and Roosy is the message boy here.
        Skilts said it spot on this morning in todays press.

        Its a shame, we will struggle without him, but whilst I have enjoyed his time at the Swans hes giving me the @@@@s now with his attitude and the players are getting jack of it now as well.
        His footy is still Ok , though the brain has gone AWOL and he looks like he wants out as well. Getting sick of defending him at work every day now

          But last year we had oloughlin available and in good form. This year he is hobbling to retirement.

          We will be in for some beltings without him. Having said that it matters little as even with him we are so far off the standard set by geelong and st kilda that it wont hurt to give others a go.

            Now you're talkin'!
            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

              Yeah, a guy called O'Loughlin was actually making a contribution then. Didn't beat any team of any quality either.

              14 touches, 8 marks and 4 goals on the weekend - who's going to be able to fill his role?

                Just install a TAB in the goal square at the SCG and I think iu2 may have the answer!

                    Acknowledge the point on Micky'O, but our attack won't be so predictable and one dimensional and the goalkickers will be spread around

                      I contend that Bazza's actions are not actually detrimental to the team at the moment.

                      I'll expand when I have time to think up an argument.

                        Our other forwards have hardly stood up this year or shown the can kick 30-40 goals next year Bazza has 31 then after that Goodes 21 Jolly 12 McVeigh 10 and jack 9
                        Bazza is the only forward we have that has kicked more than 10 goals
                        I like the idea of White forward but he is a few years off as is johnston i think we will struggle to kick a score next year without Baz and could end up right down the bottom of the ladder without a good draft pick

                              Nup.

                              He's our premiership captain.
                              To ask him to retire and end his career in that way is just wrong.
                              It should all be kept in house and discussed there privately.
                              If he decides that it is time to go based on the clubs discontent with his actions, then so be it.

                              But he should leave the club a champion with all the bells and whistles due.
                              The difference between insanity and genius is measured only in success.

                                Heard the interview on SEN. Hall said the work 'retire' at least 20 times in 2 minutes. Difficult to form any other conclusion other than Roos wants Hall to retire. I wonder what is in his contract about punching people?
                                He had observed that people who did lie were, on the whole, more resourceful and ambitious and successful than people who did not lie.
