I know, it's venting season. Fair enough.
But after the poor start to 2017, and the finish we just had, the negative views are being repeated in every thread. I used to post a lot more here, but this season has killed me. So many negative vibes, and look, i understand that people feel...
So, over the season many of us have had some moments questioning the decisions made by our coaches. We've had some posters questioning the coaching panel and Horse. We've had many tell us what we're doing wrong, and what we should do to get it right.
So i thought in GF week, we could all have a...
Ah, the Bulldogs.
Everyone's second team. I must admit a few years ago I felt kind of sorry for the dogs. A nothing team with no supporter base, no real rivalries, just going out every Sunday afternoon and handing 4 points to other teams with little fuss. They were a likeable bunch of scamps...
Just felt this deserved a thread (with toast!). Kudos to Harry for sticking it out. He's worked hard for a debut, so let's hope he rips Norf a new one!

Swans nab Irish young gun O'Riordan as international rookie
So we signed an Irish Rookie. Seems well regarded (just did a quick google of him), but i can't find height/weight.
Anyone know any more?
Welcome Colin.
How does he not have his own thread already?
Genuine superstar, will simply walk into most best 22s in the comp. Posted on AFL.com may be looking for a move more more opportunity.
Post your first round offers here (no finals teams... not good enough lads!) ;)
Having problems with one of the banner ads. Normally I can just ignore them but I'm getting one, the Nivea Men "Man Vs Fish" thing, which seems to be stopping me from clicking on thread links three above and three below the banner ad. It stops my mouse wheel from working on the page as well...
I figured with Fantasy opened up and Supercoach coming, i'd put a thread up for those interested.
To start, some Swans discussion:
1. McVeigh is a really good deal, as he's been given Def/Mid status. Very handy, and will make a lot of teams.
2. Both Mitchell and Parker have been given...
Who saw the thread title and panicked? ;)
Not to worry, it's the other McVeigh. Mark gone from his part time role at the Swans Academy to GWS. Glad to get any sniff of the Essendon scandal gone from the Swans, and never rated Mark that highly, so i see this as a bit of a win.

On the Swans site, we've signed new international Rookie Patrick Mitchell.
http://www.sydneyswans.com.au/news/2013-08-04/swans-sign-international-rookie
From Iowa, arriving October to start training.
Welcome and good luck Patrick! :thumbsu:
...Next we take your heritage.
JPK signs on for another 4 years. I know you guys needed him to revitalise your decrepit midfield, but bad luck, he's a swan for 4 more.
And that means... any future Kennedy's will be father/son picks for us. Oh that proud family tradition at Hawthorn. Sold...
4 more years for JPK!
:D < the smile on this emoticon is not big enough!
Now we need Jetta and Hanners, and we're all locked in!:thumbsu:

Interesting to read Harry Cunningham's end of season review ont he Swans site where he says:
Harry to be Rhyce's replacement when he retires? Has the pace, but i haven't seen enough to see what sort of defender he'd be. What do people think?
There's a story on the AFL site about who's traing with which club, but only a few players are named. It mentions a "permission to train" list, which suggests (but i'm not sure) that we would have had to nominate players to train with us by now.
Does anyone know who will/might be training with...
