    Your Club's Greatest (and Worst) Moments

    I'm continuing to research a project and, while I have some ideas about this, there is some stuff that only the loyals fans of each club know. So I'm after some opinions as to what were the best and worst moments in your club's history, on-field or off it. Cheers, E.

    Greatest players by club

    I am currently trying to put together a short summary of the greatest players each club has had: somewhere between 3 and 5 per club. While it's going along alright, I'm sure there are some I've missed. So I was wondering... who are the greatest players your club has seen? Oh, and I'm sure...

    Swans by 30+

    To be honest, I don't think we're going to win it. I hope we do, but my gut feeling is that it's the Eagles turn. I just hope all involved are gracious in victory/defeat, and that we can share friendly drinks after the game.

    Name the areas of Sydney where footy owns rugby league

    I live on Sydney's lower North Shore. It is by no means a Rugby League suburb... and I am often surprised by the number of Swans fans I encounter in my suburb. While Rugby Union is certainly popular, I think it's fair to say that AFL is becomming increasingly so. And when talking about...

    A Warning to Crows and Freo Supporters

    I know there's a similar thread, but this is taking a slightly different tack. There were all manner of problems this morning(see: http://www.redandwhiteonline.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=16627 I suggest calling early (we got through at 6:55am, so we were the lucky ones) and having...

    Give W.A a third team

    Actually, I think he's got a point. Perth is growing rapidly, so it makes sense for the AFL to focus on it as a growth area, much the same as the gold coast. I certainly wouldn't anticipate a 3rd team in the near future, but the AFL's ten year plan should certainly have room for it. But the...

    Eski In Vogels Out

    He's got Davis' credits. Davis bet them on a game of pool and lost.

    Roos' comments in today's telegraph

    By the same reasoning, Davis should never have been dropped. His form last year was fantastic, particularly in the last half of the season. Roos is arrogant to suggest he ought to be immune from criticism simply because we won the flag last year.

    Roos' comments in today's telegraph

    Tell me honestly this man is not arrogant. Has he forgotten he would have been under serious pressure had we gone out in straight sets last year. I think he's underestimating the intelligence of the average fan. We know there's more to the situation that it seems, but that doesn't excuse...

    Victorian Clubs Moving Home Games: When will they start taking them to Sydney ?

    Why not? I for one would love to get to some games that don't involve the Swans. I can't make it down to Melbourne more than a couple of times a season, so a game involving a team other than the Swans in Sydney would absolutely delight me. It might also be good for some of my more parochial...

    Fave Line from a Song

    She said let's put a plastic bag over our heads and then kiss and stuff 'til we get dizzy and fall on the bed. We were in heaven for five or six minutes, then we passed out and I was so in love I thought I knew what love was all about... At a Christmas-party, I'd hold your hair when you...

    Swans trivia

    Prior to that, Carlton played a series of matches against the Rugby club Waratah, one under each code of rules. I believe that was in 1877. For a wonderful account of pre-1914 Australian Football in Sydney, check this out...
