    I dare, Sir, I dare! If it defends the virtues of the innocent trainers.

    Nor did my statement judge Gary in any way. It was a correcting statement of fact that was in no way judging of the actions of any party.

    Your only correct statement was that I cannot imagine what it’s like to lose a child. I cannot imagine what it’s like to be released from a Club. I cannot imagine what it’s like to have my marriage breakdown for whatever the reason and have it played out in the public eye. I cannot imagine what it’s like to start a new relationship while my ex- publicly disparages my actions.

    However, I simply cannot fathom how you extrapolated any of that from my post of Wasn’t it the club physio?

    So who do you want me to apologise to? Gary? I’m not sure what for (based on my original comment) … how about this … Sorry Gary for stating that it was a physio and not a trainer. Or am I apologising to the physio … sorry physio for … umm I’m really not sure what for, but I’m glad the WAGS have welcomed you back into the fold to watch Gary’s games with his kids (as was well publicised). Or am I apologising to you? Sorry BS for inciting a BS retort from you, funny little fellow
    Ok. I apologie to you. I only want comments to be nice and give everyone the benefit of the doubt.

    I’ve had too many Scotches.

      Hahaha no worries!

      I've quite enjoyed the bout of (in my opinion only) irrational thought patterns to add as an extra delight on to a good night of seeing the Cats choke again in a final!

        Your opinion is that he deserves empathy. Mine is that he, nor Carey, deserve any.

        The difference is nowhere have I tried to preach to suggest that one view or the other is wrong.

        I will disagree with your position, and argue against it - but I've never said its wrong. Your the one that always thinks your view is the 'correct' one, and its your mission to somehow convert others to your thinking.

        Drop that attitude more broadly, and you'll find far less pushback on most of your posts. You are just another random username on the internet, not a higher being.
        Ok. If I met you in person MCS my impression of you is that you’d be a terrific bloke to have a beer with and talk football.

          Hahaha getting to the happy scotch phase are we BS? Much better!

          I'm always robust in my opinion, always willing to disagree, and to push back when I think something is crap. But that 'tis the point of football forums to some degree - and like anyone else, I love the swans, love talking footy, and having a good yarn!

            We are aligned MCS. I reckon you would be hilarious to listen to at the bar. Morrison, Gladys, business figures you would shred them all.

            My wife and therapist have been coaching me to be more empathetic. I’m trying not to judge people and trying to be more open.

              Lol I am happy to shred almost every politician of pretty much every ilk for about the last 30 years. Useless the whole lot of them - labor, liberal, green, crazy loopy idiots etc. There are few I would ever stand up and defend - and when I would, its because (as always in my opinion) they have shown themselves to be proper statesmen in politics for the right reasons, not the wrong reasons. Anyway, far too much derailing of this thread!

              How about those @@@@ cats hey!

                I think your a gem MCS and Red and White are grateful to have you contributing.

                As for me, I’m now too drunk to absorb Friday Night Lights. That’s no good.

                      Alcohol-fuelled dribble.

                      I was delighted that Port tore the Cats apart last night. Hopefully we beat GWS this afternoon and face the Cats the week after.

                          What a waste of time the last bit of RWO has been. I would have hoped for some insights into the game, and how the Swans might be effected into the (hoped for) future. Empathy discussions doesn't do it for me, and what I want from RWO

                          Maybe there should be a rule that only 2 posts should be allowed every day from any poster!

                            How woeful were the Cats last night. Port were good, their pressure was high, but you wonder how much of a true test it is when the other side is so off.

                            I enjoyed the post-game interview with Allir, good to see him enjoying his football and playing well. He had a huge first quarter.

                            Hoping for better contests in the other finals (except ours where a steam-roller victory to us will be fine).

                              Geelong has such an appaling finals record under Scott (bar the early premiership), and their week 1 record is utterly horrible. But they look old and really, really slow last night. Whoever wins this afternoon will fancy their chances (I think next week finals are going to be in Perth potentially too aren't they).

                                It's amazing how much better your typing and grammar become when you're drunk. Something to look into.
