The players loved Northey. He had them. They were playing accordingly. Look at the improvements from 94 to 95. Walls was respected, but, he wasn’t “loved” like Swooper was. All he wanted was an extension. History tells us what happened next.
And when it was a working man's game. No corporate boxes AFL management on multi million dollar salaries. BYO cans of VB no $13 half full plastic cups of midstrength swill. And don't get me going on the poxy music played when a goal is scored and play can't begin until the corporate whores have got their allotted commercial break time.

We had put an offer on the table and Lockett had accepted. But don’t believe me. Believe AI when asked a question around the topic. So as per Alves book, they’re broke. As per my photo, Swans are ****ed. As per my news clip, Lockett has signed. Now read below….you tell me, did we get screwed in 94?
At the time it was quite obvious the AFL wanted less Victorian clubs and were pouring money into Sydney and Qld.
Always want to read books by sports people and coaches. Alves book pulled no punches.why the f are u reading aints books

Yep, wanted their Nepo babies to succeed ahead of the heart and soul clubs.
They are all 50 to 60 yo and had their teams pounded by Richmond between 1967 and 1980 in their formative years. A sense of relief and self rightiousness from 1982 to 2016 from ages 10 to 50.
