And Pridham told Healy to piss off
:hearteyes:Was so happy when he did. I pinged 3AW after the Derby & told them they wouldn't have the nerve to rename the Showdown the Sandcastle cup, so why did they think it was okay calling it BoB still? That it was being disrespectful to both teams & football in NSW.

I said every single Swans or GWS supporter loathed the BoB label, it was only Vic media that continued to disrespect the teams by calling it something different. And that was almost solely generated by Gerard being on Fox & 3AW.

I'm going to confess that over the last couple of years I have pinged every journalist or newspaper tweet with the above argument every time I saw them use the BoB moniker. Gerard was the only holdout:mad:

Why isn’t ladhams getting a game? I thought he showed a bit at port and think he has more talent than hickey? Do you expect he will get one soon?

He's not getting a game because he's not up to the standards of Swans football. When he learns that then he'll get a call up and not before. You're doing Hickey a dis-service, he's been freaking fantastic for us.

Where can i find you pinging Ticks
 
Obviously you have NFI about footy to bag HICKEY , but look who you follow !

Don’t see how I bagged hickey, just stating I think ladhams has more talent/potential. Hickeys an amazing competitor but I think ladhams with his athleticism could be better. I thought you might play both.

Landhams would be behind Hickey as number 1 ruck. McLean is the better "tall forward who can ruck a bit" than Ladhams. Expect Ladhams to get a go if we rest Hickey or McLean.

In the 2s Ladhams didn't set the world on fire enough to force his selection
 
I also believe Ladhams is still learning the Swans system including ruck/midfield positioning. There is no need to rush him, let him learn the system and when he's ready he'll get an opportunity
100% this. It has often been said that it takes a year to settle in to a new club.
Hickey amazed everyone with what he achieved so quickly and has a firm grip on the #1 ruck position both for ruck skill and round the ground performance.
Supporters of other clubs may not realise that we also have two very good young forward/rucks in McLean and Amartey who have been in the system a while.
Ladhams clearly isn't a walk up start.
 
WCE Supporting Brother: You can't have another ruckman from us
Me: Please?
Him: No
Me: But you probably aren't even using him
Him: He probably has COVID

Going over how upset Cyril Rioli was with the booing Goodes was getting in the 2015 game between Sydney and Hawthorn I wonder if in hindsight it would have been great if the indigenous players of both clubs refused to take the field for the second half of the match. It would have sent a powerful statement.

Agree. Suspect Burgoyne would not have agreed.

Sydney CRICKET ground i would think .
Is the GABBA not a cricket ground also? They didn't have an issue with it probably because their colours are maroon & gold.

It's not that much a ridiculous question to ask when the Swans use the ground for over 7 months of the year.
 
Red and white seat covers... that can also be bought by patrons

Red and white light shows

Given the incessant rain, only red or white ponchos allowed

Only songs with red and/or white in the lyrics to be broadcast (bye bye Sweet Caroline :p :p :p :p )
