    Anthony Rocca.

    Maybe it's time for another club to learn the Swans' lesson and draft a player who's heart isn;t in it.
    Doubt the Swans will take that road again....

    Don't forget another huge whinger in Snotty Russell. There was also "Cupcake" that went to Collingwood and never amounted to anything after being a top 10 pick. Can't even be bothered to look his name up. KInnear ?????
    Nothing like a good light bulb moment.

      Kinnear looked like he could have been anything but he was in fact very ordinary. How in the hell did Collingwood into him?

        Dyson (or one of the other ex-Collingwood players) and Minton-Connell lived in Melbourne rather than moving up to Sydney, IIRC. The latter was a lovely bloke though.

          If my memory serves me right, Shannon Grant's mother was offered a job in the Swan's marketing Dept when Grant was drafted. I lived in Sydney at the time and was actually quite close to people in the playing squad and in the marketing dept. Shannon's mum became very popular within the club and she was a hard worker and loved the role. So much so that she chose to stay on with the Swans after Shannon's departure to Melbourne to play for the Kangaroos. She was actually trying to convince Shannon to stay in Sydney but he had his mind made up and the Kangaroos were into him well before his contact end. It wasnt long after Shannon left that his mum chose to follow him back to Melb. ...taking with her a partner she met in Sydney. A great lady by the way who loves her footy and her son.

            la la la la la la la la la la la la

            Now we're talking about Sharon Grant and his mum????
            What happened to the Tipster??
            Is he coming to the swans? going to the Greatest Waste (of) Space???

            This is getting thrilling now.
            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.

                Funny I had a dream last night that Tippet ended up in a court case.

                  I bet the AFL (and the Fat Controller in particular) are having nightmares about a Tippett court case on restraint of trade. They would dream of stringing the idiots at AFC up by their toes.

                  Demetriou is probably also having a few nightmares about the Tankers as well, given how strongly he dimissed any suggestion that tanking even happened. My prediction is that the AFL cant hide the evidence they find, but AD will then re-define what 'Tanking' is to let the Dees off and save face for himself.

                      And where does that leave half the Board who dream about an entire team who wear red and white ?

                          Tippett?

                          True, it's a bit Rich of anybody on a football fan forum to tell another person on that same forum to get a life.

                            I'm still trying to figure out how I can choose what I dream about. I would have banged a few Victoria's Secret girls already.

                              Wow. Cant say i have ever dreamt about the Sydney Swans. Maybe i'm missing something. Anyway KT doesn't qualify......yet.
