    A colleague of mine at work sent me this link to a short interview with Roosy about trade week that was on a Perth radio station. Few bits of interesting stuff, including some "no names" comments about the approaches of different clubs to the week.

    Western Australia: Inside Swans Trade Week

    The colleague told me I had to keep listening to the end - and now I know why. He is the "tight-arse older brother" referred to!

    Thanks for the link Liz - a really interesting interview with typical Roos hosing down treatment and some little nuggets about clubs and people at a "wink wink" level.
    He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

    Enjoyed that interview, really like hearing what Roos has to say and he has a perfect sense of humour for the job.

    all are officially in the rebuilding stage and there are a few areas we lack depth in. The main one would be a small crumbing forward. Would like to see us go after these blokes.I think the draft should be used mainly to draft quality outside mids.
