    He said then, that it was of no concern as we had already moved on from those plays.

    I suspect that 2017 will provide a similar outcome as we evolve.

    You can never get ahead by copying what others do.
    Or what they did previously in this case

    Given we know how much Bevo hates the expansion clubs poaching our staff (see his reaction to our former fitness head man leaving for GC) this may also have the unintended effect of motivating Bevo to innovate and change the game plan even more than he may have, had his staff remained in place.

    Suck on that GWS.

    Love the AFL funding the Giants to poach our staff. Interesting take on equalisation!

    Funny old world.

    I still say that as premiers we should be able to force the GWS players to come down here and line up while we unfurl our premiership flag. I don't really care if the Swans players didn't want to bother. But the GWS players for sure.
    Have you been reading those Roddy Doyle books again, Dougal!?


    I have, yeah Ted, you big gobshite
