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

      If you had of read the article in Inside Football - you would have seen that I am actually Jim Mains Whipping girl!!! (but he didnt know that I was a girl - that makes it even funnier!)

        The thing that I don't think has been mentioned, is why Jim is visting RWO?
        I thought from his last attack, that we were all dimwitted, and he wouldn't bother coming here again. Looks like he IS a Fan!!

            Pretty disappointing outcome with all this.
            I've lost a lot of respect for the man since his outbursts against RWO, and Wardy.

            And to think I give Jim free advertising for his books on our Wiki for the last 2 years. I wonder how much 2 years worth of Internet advertising is, times 3 books.
            I will leave them there as they are a valuable resource for new and old swans fans.

            I actually own 3 of the books. Not sure if I'd bother buying anymore.

            Everyone is entitled to there opinion.
            Not everyone is entitled to public abuse.

            The stuff written about Wardy would not be allowede on RWO, as it would be a breach of the rules. But, such abuse is obviously allowed in the mainstream press.

            Shame.

              Can someone please post what he wrote about Wardy, or a link to it at all?

                Jim lost me with his first book, "The encyclopaedia of Australian Rules Footballers" when he left the youngest player to play for South Melbourne, Robert Hay. Then when he did get in the next edition he called him "Bob" Hay. Rob is a close friend of my brothers and has never been called Bob, not even at the club.

                Then I copped a right old pizzling in Inside Football when I suggested Jude Bolton's form did not warrant him a game.

                  I had gathered that from the informative posts on this thread. I was just regretting that we've run out of people to curse. We don't even have Ablett or Davis to kick around any more.

                  With five weeks to go until the first match, I'd be grateful if one of our players could be involved in a nightclub scuffle, or at least a foodfight.

                      For 2 years (07 and 08) his form did not warrant him a game, as Big Al rightly knows, however, last year he played to the form we all know he is capable of.

                        It certainly is an sad indictment on both Inside Football and the press as a whole that they can get away with slandering someone without any recourse. Not that it seems to make any difference to the press as a whole these days.

                        I have one of Mains books, but doubt I will ever buy another of his books as it seems I already have the majority of the info that is in the others.

                        Oh well it will save me money that would be better spent on my membership this year. At least that goes to the club and I know I am helping to support them.

                          @@@@ that Wardy. Dip@@@@ Main is fortunate enough to be given a platform to trumpet his idiotic opinions from and slander everyone who has one that has a differing one to him. Given this is our only platform for rebuke (Because you just know he ain't going to allow your response to be printed in that rag), then I say we go hammer and tong. After all, he didn't spare your feelings in his diatribe now did he??

                            Yep absolutely! It's great to see Jude playing well now but we weren't wrong about him in 07 and 08. He was crap and we were right to say so regardless of what that dimwit Main says about it. (Sorry Wardy, thats my last comment about this bloke)

                              As I said earlier this morning, please lets just stop, leave it be and move on I would appreciate it if everyone else did too.

                                Geeze Wardy, you are getting it left right and centre. Time for a wine, chocolates, foot massage, and a cuddle from, oh lets see now, who do we choose.......BBB was a great cuddler but he's not available, the best of the best was Plugger but he is a bit far away now, Kirky would be good, Stuey would be great, oh I know, from experience a good cuddler is NicMal.

                                Notice to NicMal, Wardy needs a big cuddle.
