But in fairness we have 22 players giving their all and as supporters we can’t ask for more than that.

Go Swannies!

Yes?

One of the other commentators tried to do it on air, by placing a bit more emphasis on "Sam" that is normal, but Darcy seemed oblivious to this. But yes, you'd think that after the second mention of "Ben" (one might just be an accident, common for Swans fans who've been watching Leroy Jetta, Heath Shaw, Mark McVeigh for as long as I can remember), someone would have put him straight. His own son is Sam. Can't be that hard for him to remember.

The problem with Darcy, (actually he has more than one problem), is that he seems to say the full name of the player instead of just the surname, so he gets himself in trouble. He needs to stick to the basics.

(Darcy) needs to stick to the basics.

Yeah, well he is a ruckman (ex).

I love Chad , very obviously , but do we need 4 articles on the 1 kid in 1 week ? What about Mills, he was AA captain . Blakey , robbed of AA , most damaging half back going around . heeney ? Local kid , you would think our media would be all over that . Dylan makes the team finally - not worth giving any time to ?

Always feel reassured when I watch a Longmire press confrrence. Rock solid character.

A statesman who stands above most other coaches, some of them are very ordinary, and we all know who they are

Someone mentioned Will Hayward earlier, has been in cracking form the latter half of the year, so important to us

We need four articles about Chad more than we need 5 posts by the same person complaining about too many articles about Chad, when that person has posted more about Chad than the rest of RWO combined.

Interesting quote: ""Mum was pretty happy knowing we were both going to be here forever," he said.

Please let it be true.

Please let it be true.

Lol I suspect what Chad actually said was “Mum was pretty happy knowing we were both going to be here together.”

Directly quoted from the article: "Mum was pretty happy knowing we were both going to be here forever," he said.

Sure, he may have been misquoted......but one can dream right?

Is Parker the forgotten man, he’s so consistently reliable and moves the ball on so effectively. He’s so important in our line up.

Oh Christ, we've been given Stevic. (Stephens and Fleer are the other two). Why does the AFL hate us so much?

It seriously cannot be 'just a coincidence' can it? FFS, they just can't stop laying their boots in can they?

Not sure what the problem is? I've heard he is one of the best in the business!

Could be worse - we could of copped that utterly inexplicably dreadful Nicholls.

[RogueSwan]

Could be worse - we could of copped that utterly inexplicably dreadful Nicholls.

Is he the one that gave the confusing and incorrect free against Paddy on the goal line?
