Wasnt Malceski the player that said at the begining of the season that he wasnt going to drink alcohol for the entire AFL season. If it was him then he is probably trying to catch up for lost time.

Your right! I forgot to mention that.
He did stay true to his word though, more of a reason why he let loose on the night I suppose! lol
Every other player had a good laugh about it too, especially Schneider and Davis, appearing like a couple mischievious school kids in a classroom glancing across from eachother's tables as Malcevski spoke.

lol. That's good 'ol Nicko! :)
 
NOW im jealous.

The fallout from living in Western Sydney sucks. I've only met Geelong players, and the conversations were awkward:

(Among HEAPS of fans)
Cam. Ling: "If you have your guernsey, i can sign it for you there.."
Me: "Nah, thanks, i'm a Sydney fan."
Cam. Ling: <looks confused as to what i'm doing at a Geelong thing>

PS Ling always looks confused. lol

You should have tried to get him to sign a Sydney Guernsey. Then he would have looked really confused :D
 
My relatives are huge Falcons/Cats supporters. Oddly, Lings hair was brighter when he was younger, its orange now, but it almoooost matched our guernsey. If only i had it then *sigh*

Well, I'm from Parramatta, Eels dominate everything.
I called up the Swans Admin, and they said packages are going to be sent out in December now. It SUCKS.
 
My brother was at the SCG and after the game my brother saw a young lady and he said "Isnt she hot." It happened to be that Darren Jolly was the boyfriend of this young lass and was next to my lil bro. He told him off in no uncertain terms.
I dont blame him somehow :D

All the Swans seem to be fantastic from my encounters with them; speaking of which they are coming up north in a couple of weeks. Great culture in the club; probably because I dont think you can act like a ego-centric superstar as AFL is one of a multitude of sports fighting for public attention and fanfare in Sydney.

I have never met a rude one yet but, funnily enough, of all the ones I have met, Nick Davis was the best. He has a wonderful, mischievous sense of humour and had me laughing the whole time I was talking to him. My daughter frequents the same night clubs as many of the boys and has never seen any of them misbehave. She often comes home and says she had been chatting to someone or other and without exception, they have all been great.

I agree. davis was awesome. Wentout of his way for autographs and chats. Even walked around the corner with me to see if i could catch the kids attention to get their stuff signed as well.
 
Andrew Schauble was a good bloke to talk to. bumped into him when i was going to a concert at the horden pavillion, he must ave been coming out of training i think. I shook his hand and he asked where i was off to and wished him all the best etc...

Lockett always seems dis-interested in meeting fans. Met him twice and he doesn't seem to enjoy it.

Paul Kelly always had time for me when i met him. Always happy to talk.

Other than that most of the players i've met have been at the pre-season things at racecourses.

At one of the signings/BBq or whatever in 96 Ben Mathews was there and was very new to the club, his mum (i think it was anyway) done all the talking for him, he looked quite nervous being surrounded for signatures. :p

Ron Barassi is a gem also. Enjoys a convo and a laugh, met him a few times. at the lightning premiership in 96, at the GF in 96 and a couple of times after that as well.

Lets not forget all the good charity work he's done with the "Just Enough Faith Foundation" (soup kitchen for the homeless) and the "Malcolm Sargent Cancer Fund For Children".

seems everyone except me has met him!

aftermatch functions in '08 :D
 
A few of the Swans came on an end of season trip to Tassie in 06. It was only a week or so after losing the GF. They had advertised in the paper to come along and meet them for an hour or so at the Casino.

Knowing how hurt I was after the one point loss I was a bit hesitant in approaching the players at the time. Paul Williams was more than happy for a chat and made a few jokes and LRT was also very nice. Jude Bolton was the most rude but think he may have had a fair bit of grog under his belt and it is understandable considering how down they all must have felt at the time. Barry Hall was great with all the kids and attention.

I also met Gerard Bennett once and I think he was pumped just to get recognised!
