    Sen this morning mentioned Smith as one of the reasons we are doing well. Apparently his dad played 1 game for St Kilda.

    I'm confused. Was it our Smooch? And what about his voice?

    That's exactly what he said and that was it. Every other Foxtel footy show expressed their sympathy.
    Yes I too watched the Thursday Footy Show on Foxtel and thought exactly the same thing. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and thought they would say something at the end of the show. Nothing at all, to tell you the truth I thought it was appalling. Even Channel Nines Footy Show said something and I would not give that show the time of day, but I was informed they too were sincere in their condonlences.

    It was our Smooch, yes.

    He has a funny voice, a bit jockey like. Hard to describe, but definately unique and not the type of voice you'd expect would put the fear of God into opponents. For eg. if BBBBH told you not to do something again, you'd very seriously consider taking his advice.

    He has lots of videos on the Swans site from earlier in the year, have a look at them and you'll see.

    That's part of his tactic. Just before the first bounce he says hello to them and then they spend the rest of the match trying to work out if he was being serious or not.

    I gave them the benefit of the doubt. They would have discussed it before the show and decided it was a private matter and rather than grandstand or make news of it they decided not to make it part of the show. If any of them have a relationship with McVeigh I'm sure they would have expressed their sympathy privately. I don't like BT but I do like the show!

    If you go look up the Sunday Footy Show you'll find his interview listed in their videos. Seemed a little uncomfortable and nervous, but I'm glad he's finally getting some credit. Hores is correct when he says our backline is underrated. Very unassuming lot, but consistent in their performance.

    True. And think Dennis Lillee.
    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)
