This ones probably more appealing to Bomber fans but, just thought I better let those who are boycotting "The (Collingwood) Footy Show" that they should tune in tonight to see the the great man.

One of the clubs all time legends, two time premiership player and biggest Cult hero ever at Windy Hill. Very mysterious too, I've never even heard the guy speak, very media shy, haven't seen him since he left the club.

Apparentley he'll be on with his wife "Spider" (I kid you not). Can't wait.

Double bonus too 'cause Pigs Arse is O.S. so Eddie won't have him on, you beauty!

Cheers.

BOMBER BLITZ IN 2000!
 
I bet our ex player Manton is on the panel again so he can bag our team. I really like Manton, I wish he would just get over being dumped by the Bombers & stop slagging them.

great news !!!! Would like to hear what Leon has to say.

and whenever f*ckhead appears on the Footy Show I switch off now. I cant watch him without wanting to punch his face in (and Ed's for having him on).

I'll also reiterate my earlier comment-
I hope f*ckheads private jet passes through the bermuda triangle on his return, and that he is transported to hell (or thereabouts)

For those of us OS can someone please provide the gist of what the great man has to say... never heard him speak either...

Maybe he and Timmy W. will both turn up with shaved heads just for old time sake.

Oh - just for Pess - one more time...

"comes to Baker, beautiful blind turn... I think he's kicked it.... yes he's kicked it and the bombers are in front for the first time in the 84 GF... " (pardon the poetic licence D24)...
 
Yeah, I picked that up too! Wasn't hard given I've followed them my whole life....

If there's any anonymous multi-millionaires out there looking for a good cause that will be "good for football", the Swans are it. It's great to see that former players are helping them out. I know that Scotty Cummings (who could only have played a handful of league games for them) has been promoting the cause, and from Sydney Jason Ball has offered to help (as he should be able to with his contract over there). Haydn Bunton Jr. also with his Sandover.

Perhaps Sydney could set up a sponsorship thing like we did with the East Coast Eagles. Or maybe not.

Onya Swannies!
 
that, eagle_fan, is a BLOODY GOOD IDEA

WE've been successful with the Port Melbourne connection this year, and WCE have done well for themselves in the East Coast Eagles set-up (incidently these guys beat Swans Reserves in the SFL a couple of weeks ago)as well the Crows have tied up an arrangement with Saint George, Essendon are with North Sydney, and the Kangaroos have been nice and close to Campbelltown for a couple of seasons now, So I guess it would be smart thinking if the Swans entered into a similar arrangement with Swan Districts.

A SANFL team would be good too - North Adelaide perhaps ?
 
dutchy,
basically (as you could tell by now) Leon was trying to advertise a bit of an SOS for swan districts, but also talked about the old 84-85 sides and said the current crop cannot be compared until they win the flag. Also talked about how footy was a bit of a "past time" (sorta) and how he and his wife tended to pack their bags right after the season ended and head off backpacking round australia (mainly WA). Apparently he did bugger all pre-season and just rocked up before the season started (in good condition) and sheeds just said "ok- youre in the side".
Anyway, i dont know about anyone else, but I sensed a little tension between sheeds and Leon. not sure why, but they seemed a little uncomfortable sitting there together.
anyone else notice it ????

Arch - I personally dont think Leon was a media friendly person, since this was his 2nd or 3rd time on camera, and nothing personal against Kevin
