    Bloods Ethos Defined - Kirk

    http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegrap...006065,00.html

    This is one of the best club addresses I've ever had the pleasure of reading or witnessing. I'd give my right arm to have been there for this one.

    Finally a Rebecca Wilson article worth reading
    "As everyone knows our style of football is defensive and unattractive, and as such I have completely forgotten how to mark or kick over the years" - Brett Kirk

    Thanks for the transcript Rebecca, thanks for posting. I had been looking for this since it was mentioned in the article on the Swans web-site. They said it was inspirational (from memory) - They were not wrong.

    I'm guessing he lost a few of the audience with that too, but he is referring to shamanism of the Native Americans whereby all life is sacred and different animals have different spirits and powers, and the Native Americans would call on their support and guidance. Each individual and each tribe had their own animal, and this could change over time.
