Opinion Swans Talk in the Football Media

[RW]

2: Poses the thought that if we win the GF we could lose 3. Pyke, Bird, Malcheski

Pay close attention to the language used in that article: "could signal the end", "would all be attractive propositions", "might be enough", "[Bird] could double his money". A lot of speculation, not much in the way of facts.

That article completely discredits all those BF Hawks' flogs who always argue that the Swans only landed JPK because the Hawks couldn't match the massive offer we put to him.

The truth is they were going to delist him and took anything they could get in a trade and ran.

Sounds like the Swans had our eye on Kennedy before his good run of 9 games and his good run of 9 games worried the Swans as we thought it would be enough so Hawthorn would not want to get rid of him.

One year deal with no promises of playing any games.. they sure did wanna keep him

I know his grand father didn't support him in 2012 but I wonder if Josh Kennedy's father cheered for the Swans in the 2012 Grand Final.

Were they going to delist him?

I saw an interview with Clarko once who said it was a fair trade and he went for opportunity. Hawks who spout that crap are just sad they didnt keep their golden boy and are in denial. (I know I would be pissed if we traded Kelly's son and he turned into one of the best elite mids!)

John Jnr did support Sydney in that game. He was all smiles post game when shown on the camera.

Great words from Pridham in the Age today, starting to really like this guy.

Yes Mr Pridham/Prids/the Pridster/the Pridhaminator, is certainly giving he AGE plenty of copy on slow news days.

They'll twist this all around to make us look like whingers of course. But I don't care. It's good to have some passionate defenders of the club. And I much pefer the President takes that role than have our players or coaches fronting the media having to respond to every jibe the club cops.

Strongly agree. He has an impressive CV, clearly he's no fool.

It's time somebody stood up to the McGuire-asaurus, and our Chair looks singularly well equipped.

Go Andrew Pridham!

I literally can't watch it as none of the channel 7 digital channels are working on my TV at the moment.

Macca saying Goodes will play on

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Macca saying Goodes will play on

What? not into 2015 surely.

 

[Punts]

What? not into 2015 surely.

Him and Jack both said he will play on next year , Macca said he expects Mal to stay

 

[robbieando]

Well McVeigh is hardly going to retire Goodes on National TV is he

He is a great of the game but i think its a mistake

 

[RUNVS]

I am not so sure. Yes he was not great in general play but he still kicked 4 goals for us, the most of any of our players.
