All this discussion on creating a better atmosphere, singing new songs...blah blah.

Lets get serious....time to bring back the Swanettes and place them on a stage at the cheersquad end. They would add colour, pazazz, spice, comedy, music and would get the crowd involved.

I mean heck, add 6 bonus points to a goal if a kick for goal, knocks a Swanette off their perch.

Time for nominations to be on the 2006 Revival of the Swanettes!

My memory of the Swanettes has them as a bunch of old* ladies with big hair and white leotards. Don't know how they'd go today.

* I was a kid when the Swanettes were around so anybody over 15 seemed old to me.

From a distance up in the O'Reilly stand, I couldn't tell how old they were! :eek:

We could combine the two themes here - ROK and Swanettes and solve a problem along the way.

Let's replace the Swanettes and instead set up eight Princess Marys behind the goals for ROK to aim at. She doesn't do much for me but given his history with her, we know he'd rise to the challenge.

Yep, might make him kick straight!

I'll vote for anything that removes Kenny and the Old tarts from behind the goals.

Should we have a "ditch Kenny" poll?

One of my mates in Sydney recalls they were affectionately known as "The Mumbles".

I have no problem with Kenny's support for the team, but from what I have heard he is now becoming a little full of his own self importance. I find it hard to tolerate people like that.
