I do too SP - loudly, proudly and with absolute confidence!

Thats a very enjoyable article, Roos' comments are pretty spot on I think.
I like Wu's writing, always seems pretty responsible and he doesn't tend to push his opinions, shame the same can't be said for most of the others.

“I reckon Sydney is now recognised as a great place to come and play football. These are two great clubs and I don’t think the go-home factor is to do with the Cost of Living issue.”

The go home factor was never to do with the cost of living factor. It is about having something which can compete with the go home factor and money talks

Exactly, Gil has absolutely no idea.

Fox footy pretty much ignored the game bar Heeney’s grab and a bitch about the playing surface.

As opposed to my strategy of ignoring any issues with the playing surface and bitching about the game.

I just wish the media would do their research and ask questions based on actual facts rather than stereotypes based on how the analysts think we play. Sort of like how for years the media kept insisting the Swans were strong in the wet when in reality we were terrible.

Nothing too revealing in the Longmire SEN interview, though Longmire seemed to imply that Buddy's best was behind him, which is a little bad to hear.

No one in the media is really talking about Longmire's job being on the line, but the voices are getting louder among the Swans fans.

The media in general is still giving Longmire a free pass. They are hopeless.

I just want the media asking Longmire questions that we the fans want them to ask, like what are his plans for the midfield, and why has he made the decision not to change the game plan.

In fairness there's been plenty of those questions and critiques going around. What you are looking for seems to be questions about his job security, and that just isn't going to happen. So long as there are worse coaches around with worse performances, the media will only dedicate a certain percentile of their 'job-danger' talk to those few coaches.

Take this weekend for example. We had a pretty poor loss yet again and this board went into crisis mode, but Worsfold's Essendon got smashed by 72 points, and Brad Scott's Kangaroos got smashed by 80+, and finals sides like the Dees and Crows put in performances that were, believe it or not, as bad if not worse, than ours. So Horse gets away with it again. Not saying I like the system but that's the system.

I like plough has written us off.

I like plough has written us off.

He's fair with us. He hasn't , but if things don't change we are gone for this year.

Why would the media go after Longmire? Swans have made the finals every year under his tenure. You may dislike his style but his record is such that the likes of Richardson, Bolton and Hinkley are more under the pump as they are low hanging fruit.

As for the voices getting louder. Every club board has a thread sacking the coach after a loss.

Back to the coach thread.

He always does. Been a Swans hater every since the fans chose Roosy over him.
