Means her job has been cut. Not good.

 

[Bojan KantKick]

Enough to last us a few months. But still.

That sucks mate.

 

[Jatz]

What kind of industry is she in Cruyff14 ? How hard will it be to find similar work?

Sorry to hear that mate.

Made redundant I get. Ive never heard the term retrenched before.

Think it's the old school term but means the exact same thing

What's he done now??

 

[Jatz]

Mike Fitzpatrick. What a campaigner.

I don't know, I've always wanted to say that to the self righteous campaigner that is Richard Colless.

But yes, very unprofessional.

Seems very much like they wanted Franklin to GWS. May also explain the trade ban imposed on the Swans for breaking no rules. Just reeks of unprofessionalism, like Jatz said.

He's the reason you're still playing games at ANZ too. Conflict of Interest much.

He would've hated that Colless was the architect in the Swans playing no more games there from 2017 too.

I'm not surprised I've thought for a while the game is corrupt. NM for a while got a rough stadium deal and fixture after turning down the leagues request to relocate North to the GC. Steve Johnson was wanted by the afl to play for GWS in 2012 and he refused now he gets sighted for the most trivial of matters (his suspension this week is deserved btw) but a lot of the others haven't been.

So I'm not surprised. The afl are hell bent on those two clubs succeeding that they paid millions to two rugby converts to play the game. Lastly while it may be wrong to abuse the Swans over recruiting Franklin and I think it was very wrong to impose a trade ban in the middle of trade week. Do remember how you came to having Tippett and Franklin.

For the first time in many years, i watched Rompingwins brother on Footy Classified this week. He wouldn't even admit that Harmichael campaigner was a PR disaster for the league and that he would do it all again with hindsight.

The Richmond lols were worth it imo

Oh and I forgot to even mention their most corrupt piece of business, sweeping Essnedon's problems under the carpet as suspending the players would be in the too hard basket to find a solution so that Essendon can field a team.

They fit under the salary cap. The Tippett situation was unfortunate. We gave Adelaide the chance to have big Jesse White and Pick 18. He got a half-season suspension and everyone moved on. We got Franklin fairly as well. Very risky contract but nonetheless, most Swans fans are happy to have him.

Also, Steve J gets sighted because he does his acts in broad daylight and he's generally a muppett on the football field. The Fitzpatrick thing may play a part, but the majority of it is because Stevie J just has no idea sometimes.
