Umm land any player we want? What's the Ablett thing I can't remember? Sure The 'AFL' has dibbled and dabbled with a bit of concession here and there ... while ignoring many practical difficulties of interstate teams. Strewth you only have to listen to strangely untouchables like Brian Taylor pretending to be commentators. The unquestionable support of failing Vic teams for so long... god give me strength!

I have never heard of the attempt to start the NFL, thanks for the heads up sounds like a very good read hope i can find a copy. The fact we dont have a tasmanian team has always been an interesting topic and i think the AFL's line on it is it wouldnt be profitable, if thats the case why let any games be played there. Surely a team starting in western sydney would be less financially viable in the short term than one in Tassie, not too say we shouldnt have GWS of course we should just makes their argument about Tassie not being viable seem very thin.
Sorry the Ablett thing was just my poor attempt at humour, just meant if the AFL was helping us land any player we wanted then what happened with Ablett
, Taylor is just plain awful i agree, turning into another Bruce and becoming a parody of himself with catchphrases etc very lazy stuff. So annoying down here though as most people write the swans off even in our best years as "well who wouldnt win with all that extra salary cap and AFL help" , ive argued with many a person over it , these days i just try to ignore them as it really winds me up if i let it.

Fremantle for me. It's a somewhat nostalgic choice, it's where I disembarked all those years ago ...
Fremantle's colors are purple and white. They look like dark or navy blue and white to me. Can someone tell me why this is so, please? Does anyone have a PMS color for the purple? Do my eyes and televisions need adjusting?Supporting the club formerly known as South Melbourne ?Comment

The AFL were hoping it was to be the Swans playing in the GF and this is as close as they can get to it happening.
Since when does purple clash with wee/poo? Strange.

It doesn't. According to what I have read, Hawthorn get to wear home uniform because they finished higher in the H & A season. The Dockers were asked to wear white shorts which they could have worn with their purple guernsey. However they then chose to wear their full clash strip.Originally posted by BillyRayCypress;

As Rossy Lyons says," Anyone, anywhere, anytime. " I don`t think they give a rats about what they are going to wear. They`re in the GF..........
Plus, what`s all this hatred for Ballantyne & Crowley?? They are super players who get under the skin of the opposition. I`d love them in the Swannies big time. BTW, in our house we call Ballantyne (Mighty Mouse). It`s hillarious, Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Mighty Mouse..Even Santa follows the Swannies.Comment

The reason for Freo wearing white shorts was a decision that the purple shorts clash with the brown shorts.
Dunno about you guys, but the purple guernsey with white shorts would look terrible, which I think is why Freo decided to go all white."It's up to the rest of the players in the room to make a new batch of premiership players next year," Adam Goodes, triple Bob Skilton Medallist, October 7, 2011.

Could the all white decision be to do with seeing their team mates better with a background of purple and yellow/brown in the crowd. I know players probably aren't too distracted by the crowd but white is certainly the colour which stands out best, other than the lime green umpires!Comment

The winner will be Carlton United Breweries.Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
