    Scourge of the swans says goodbye

    At risk of sending everyone here completely wild, it's time to acknowledge Adam Hunter, who retired yesterday.

    He was a mullet adorned bogun, a thug, a goose, utterly objectionable in every way - but regularly gave us hell and heart palpatations.

    It's appropriate you retire the same year as Leo, because if it wasn't for his mark, your efforts in the final quarter of the 2005 GF would have been the defining factor.

    And for everyone on RWO, that would be cause for breaking out cyanide tablets.

    Enjoy your flannel slippers in retirement.

            Bye bye Hunter. I've admired his football for a long time. I'm also sorry that he couldn't play out his career as he deserved. A player who didn't get accolades he deserved for his season 05/06 overshadowed by the engine room of Judd, Kerr, Cousins.

              I always regretted not making a similar post for Daniel Chick.

                I have yet to work out if this is the biggest pisstake in R&W history, or.....nah, has to be the former. Its kind of like when the mafia left the dogs. You lose your focus on intense irritation and dislike. Big Q, well no, he's ok. Wirrpunda - not likely, he's a good bloke. Selwood? Likely candidate to take over Hunters job of annoying me to the max. Keep this space open. Oh and fairwell and good journey Hunter.....and that's about as Christian as I can get.

                    Hating the Eagles now is like someone hating the Swans now. You'd have to look pretty hard and pretty desperate to find a reason.

                      Yeah, it just doesn't feel the same any more.

                          I do like Hunter. He is actually a really good guy and very talented footballer.
                          Have never understood the hatred for him.
                          Scourge of the swans? Meh! Let's talk about Liba and David King.

                            Agee. Hate the idiotic fans, not the team.
                            The ones who in '05/'06 were predicting a dynasty, whilst the swans would languish into insignifcance.
