    Swans Shut Out

    The guys over at Big Footy asked me to write a piece on the Trading Sanctions that have been handed down to the Swans.

    Let me know what you think.

    Well done Joe. It would have been good if you mentioned that part of the original reason for the COLA was because of the inability of the Sydney players to earn extra income outside of their salaries like Melbourne players do. Having said that it is a good read. Let's hope that it gets good readership.

    Good work Joe. Important to spread the word, seeing that apart from Emma Q the media seem to be sitting on their hands.
    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)

    Thanks Di. I agree, and I am staggered by it.

    wow great read. I'm struggling not only win the Grand final loss but this disgraceful penalty put on the club. I've signed every petition going around.
    As someone said in one of the threads, lets do a trade and let the courts decided. Sick to death of the AFL and Eddie Piggy McGuire. Piggy's also pushing the envelope in regards to the Swans, maybe its a deflection due to the amount of @@@@ that's happening at the piggery. Absolutely hate the MAN hate his hypocrisy, hate his football team.

    Michelangelo Rucci has also now criticised this AFL action.

    Great article Joe.
    Hope someone at AFL House reads it.
    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.

    Thanks Annie. I'm beginning to wonder if anyone at AFL House can actually read!
