Bugger.
I blame Ted Richards (have to blame someone, might as well be Ted - and me actually - I parked behind him in the car park on Saturday night, obviously its all my fault, my apologies to everyone, especially Goodsey)If you've never jumped from one couch to the other to save yourself from lava then you didn't have a childhoodComment

Seriously, this may prove to be a blessing in disguise.
We now have little choice but to find out once and for all about Jesse, or find out about Walsh, or maybe see how TDL performs out of the goalsquare, or if Morton can finally find a spot. Whichever way we decide to go, for Gods sake give them a month to either prove they are up to it or not.....Driver of the Dan Hannebery bandwagon....all aboard. 4th April 09Comment

That would be the sad reality if we were talking about a mere mortal, but its Goodsey we are talking about here. You just watch him come back and rip 'em to shreds when he does....
A chance for Tommy I reckon....Comment

Agree, also there does come a time where we do have to start thinking about life after goodsey. I dont want to even think about it right now, but as freakish as he is/has been he may start to get more injuries as he comes to an end. In saying that he could easily have another 3-4 years playing out of the goalsquare, but we need to also find out who can step up in his absence and this is the chance.Seriously, this may prove to be a blessing in disguise.

very exciting opportunity for our coaching staff more more importantly some of our fringe players to rise up !
its now your watch Tommy Walsh, Andrejs Everitt, Jessie White - stand and deliver
no Rohan, No Goodes, No Mummy ........but we have great depth and a game plan we can cope with and deliver very well week in week out !"be tough, only when it gets tough"

Had he known the extent of the injury, he should have whacked a bloke on his way off and got rid of those carry-over points at the MRP!Those who have the greatest power to hurt us are those we love.Comment

Awful news. But, if we are to be a genuine force this season, this will be a great test for the rest of the team (just look how good The Weagles are going with a bunch of high quality players out). We need to stand tall, work hard as a team and as a whole make up for the absence of Goodesy. It could break our season, but if the boys work hard, it could also make our season. 6 weeks off now for Goodesy might make the next 6 weeks tough, but it might give him that little bit extra come the pointy end of the season - and who knows one moment of brilliance from him could be the difference between a good season and a great season.
Time for the rest of the team to stand up and be counted. Get well soon Goodesy!"You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."Comment
