Swans Academy and player watch

Besides being a obsequious, unctuous paean to Eddie, the article is also factually incorrect. The English football leagues has had relegation/promotion since it started. What turned the EPL around 25 years ago was the big jump in TV money

The English Teams in the late 80s were also band from European Club competition due to disgusting hooligan behaviour and supporter riots.

To go with the injection of money the English clubs cleaned up their act and starting attracting exciting overseas players like Eric Cantana.

Was that a paid advertorial?

That article reads like it is from The Onion

Rubbish!

It was a late April Fool's joke - wasn't it?

I'm surprised that Eddie needs a ghost writer.

Why did you make me read that article? !? I read all your comments first and thought you were all over reacting. Wow what a dumb self-serving piece of trash that is. Obviously there is no news at the age today.

I know. The article said nothing, but the comment under McGuires picture spoke a thousand words.

It's the start of Eddies campaign.

I suspect there is already a PR consultant engaged to seed stories to the media.

That article is a satire....relax, he's on our side, folks. It's not very good satire if not everyone understands that he is taking a pot shot at Eddie because everything Eddie wants will lead to an EPL type competition where only four or five teams can win it.

I found myself trying to work out if it was a parody. Bizarre.

Edit: OK, it is. Not up to The Onion's standard though.

Callum Mills - Code-swapper might be 2015 draft-topper - AFL.com.au

Love Callum Mills' description of rugby, sums up my view perfectly!

""There's multiple things that I hate about the game (rugby). It's not really fun, it's really one-dimensional, it's just a line."

"They run into you, you tackle, they run into you, you tackle. With AFL it's much better, it's all around the ground and I get to use my endurance, which I really like."
