    Absolutely. I've so jumped off the BBBH band wagon. Dead-set, ever since he signed that $2M contract, he has become too complacent for my liking. We should trade him while he's still worth something.

    Once again, I'll order a side of fries with my words if I have to eat them.
    Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
    Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

    Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.

    Melcho gathers loose ball on Southern Stand wing..bounces ball and runs forward...

    Evades a Buckley attempt to tackle... takes another bounce ... steadies at 60 mtrs...5 secs to go

    Lets loose and ball sails through at post height..as siren sounds..

    Ah what bliss....
    Personally, I'd like to be 70 points up at half time. Last quarter sees Hall, Everitt, Goodes, MOL all in cotton wool on the bench preparing for next week.

    Other concerns (over and above our recent form against Collingwood) are that in the past two years we have had relatively settled sides heading into and during the Finals, but now after a solid win against a Finals team we find that the Swans may make up to 3 changes.

    Irrespective of Hall, Kennelly and Buchanon's obvious importance I would have preferred less changes and only one or two changes per week if possible.

    Also I have had enough of the players talking us up all Year but being very inconsistent with their performances.

    Here's one from Jude Bolton.

    So is it really BBBBH's fault that they deliver the ball to him poorly and when he's under immense pressure when they should look for an alternative? I agree that they are to focussed on him and continue to kick it to him when they shouldn't, but that's hardly his fault. It's not like he's not going to lead. But the players sending it in should really look at all the options before simply bombing it into his vicinity. Time and time again they don't kick it to him when he's one out in the goal square or in a position to take it. Yet they DO kick it to him when he's two & three on one and completley out of position. WTF???

    As average as his form has been, he can't be totally blamed when he's not getting a chance to get near the ball!!

    It would be a lot quicker if he could run in a straight line and without pirouettes.

    Score more goals/points than them

    I'm feeling nervous. I've been fairly disinterested about the finals but now am getting excited.
