    Sorry I don't understand what you're referring to there - I was commenting on how Kirky's yoga, Buddhism etc seemed to help make him such a fantastic player for us....

    Kirky gets maligned because when interviewed/speaking he is full of crap.
    He certainly does not do that for me? Who are those us?

    Alternative approaches seems to have gone mainstream these days.
    ..And the Swans are the Premiers...The Ultimate Team...The Ultimate Warriors. They have overcome the highly fancied Hawks in brilliant style. Sydney the 2012 Premiers - Gerard Whately ABC

    There are those who think he's fantastic and hang on his every word and there are those who don't. Simple as that.

    That's what I was referring too - I think many of us would agree the commentary gig isn't really his thing so I'd prefer to remember him for what he did on the field in his playing days.

    I respected the way he played as I said in an earlier post.
    I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure..................

    Sure, you just asked why he was maligned. 2 reasons; the pretentious nonsense he spouts, and, the disingenuous nature of his behaviour with Davis and Hall

    They are the reasons IMHO

    Provide one piece of evidence that he was disingenuous with Davis and Hall.
    Officially on the Reid and Sumner bandwagon!
