    Calling Stella . . . Tricky Nicky is back, and so are the guns

    Hope this doesnt conflict with the Richmond game, or we wont see Stella. A funny boy our Nick

    Nice find IU2.

    Reading between the lines it appears Nick has accepted that he can take a fair bit of responsibility for how things panned out in those final stages at the Swans. Hard to believe Sunny hasn't been around since 2003, seems like only a few years.

      Interesting moves by both parties - Davo and Swans - and encouraging to see.
      He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

        Really glad he's been welcomed back. Also great that he's now part of the new bling bling Balmain Dockers!

        I'll take alot of photos of the old champs for you guys watching them at Drummoyne Oval, however unfortunately some games clash with the Swans.

          He was always very popular with the kids, and from all accounts is actually an excellent skills coach too- we put a heap of our juniors through his dad's kicking school and it did wonders for 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

            Thanks for the info on Nick Davis. To see him coaching at Academy is fantastic and good on Ireland for bringing him back. Also to be playing with former team mates. Just what was needed. I have always felt he was cheated by being forced to leave.
            Obviously many differing opinions. Thanks again for the information - much appreciated.
            Love those Swans

              What a hoot. This shall season 2010 with a dusting of whoodathortit. And great to see Fossy in the saddle. Do we sense a coach in waiting? I thought my bestboy Schmitty went back to Adelaide to be a real estate thingy! Oh this is going to be fun. Who is going to volunteer to post game place/times?

                ''I'm not sure 'Fozzy' knows what he's getting himself into,'' Davis said yesterday. ''I told him to speak to Roosy [Paul Roos] and he'll find out I'm not the easiest person to coach"


                The Dockers' next home game is at Drummoyne Oval next Saturday 10 April at 2pm, for those keen to see Davo eight kilos above his racing weight!

                  Read the article. Even Nick Davis disagrees with you.

                      I reckon it's fantastic that the ex-Swans are running around in the AFL Sydney competition, giving something back to the game. And even better that a major newspaper has seen fit to give the competition some coverage (hope it continues, but it probably won't).
                      As far as I'm aware, Luffy will run around with the UNSWES Bulldogs again this season.

                        I actually considered heading out to drummoyne before the game on saturday to see Davo tearing it up in the SFL, but if the weather's good I'll probably be playing soccer (I know, not a real fan )

                          Doesn't that man know when to quit? I thought I had seen his last game at Blacktown last year!

                            Slightly OT, but I see Luke Ablett is playing for Box Hill down here in Melb.
