    He hates everyone except his beloved Cronulla Sharkies. You think his hate of the Tigers is bad- just compare to it the absolute dross he continually writes about the Dragons. I have a biased view being a Dragons fan as well, but his diatribe at times is absolutely disgraceful. So yeh, nothing to see here people if the article is written by that twat.

      Hate's the roosters and dragons especially, though as a roosters supporter it's nothing new. What really pisses me off is he won't even achnowledge that Brian Smith should be coach of the year, but I digress. Safe to say that 'twat' is a numb-skull of the highest order.

      Anyway, this article was very badly timed especially considering earlier in the week the daily tellucrap had an article about kizza and how much he had developed. At least it's got the swans in the news (somewhat). I don't think he'll ever leave though.

        I read it and thought "Oh no" but on reflection think the interview might have gone like:

        "Kieren is playing well, isn't he?"

        GJ "Yep, I'm so proud of him"

        "He's good enough to be a RL player isn't he?"

        GJ "Well, he's certainly playing well in this code".

        "But you must think how good it'd be if he switched to your code?"

        GJ "Well he did play RL till he was 14"

        "Do you think he has the skills to play RL".

        GJ "Of course he does. He'd be a great half back."

        Bingo. Article researched.

        Unless you have the skills of a politician (or Roos) to keep not being led by questions you're doomed. I could be wrong but I'd guess that's what happened.

          Reckon you'd be pretty close to spot on there GS.

                Fantastic piece of News Ltd journalism. Story says Jack sr "predicts" Kizza will play league. THen quotes him saying "Personally, I'd love to see him do it one day if that's what he wants...."

                Personally I'd like Tony Abbott to quit politics, if that's what he wants.

                  Oh, please. Even the article on the Swans website had Dad saying he always thought Kizza would get over AFL. Now that he's excelling at AFL why wouldn't Dad say son shine would be able to crush playing NRL. It doesn't mean he's going anywhere. If so, Kizza could rest his legs and just bench press all day long. YAWN!!!

                          Poor old Phil Rothfield. He really is the Fred Nile of sports "journalism". The problem is that without the Terror having any competition among those who can't or won't think for themselves, the punters he writes this sort of drivel for just lap it up.

                            His nickname is Buzz which I assume is what he hears every time he tries to have an intelligent thought.

                                Yeah its all just rubbish talk, why would he want to play a game like that? Jack is an emerging star, if not already and judd even praised him after the game, as devastated as he seemed. Longmire on SEN this morning said he nearly choked on his coffee when he first heard of this story, but if by some miracle jack does go, we've still got him for another 3 years.
