    Is there a record for the most games that three players have experienced together?

    How many for the Goodes, Bolton and O'Keefe triumvirate?

        That is the point of the article posted just above about the three. They equal the record this weekend.

          Thanks for that Aaron. What a great article. It makes you realise how important they are/have been to our team. Pretty unique too. You could say that we had BBB, Micky O and Kirky leading the way to the 'first' flag, but for various reasons the Goodsey, Bolts and ROK trio is the more special. Looking at our list we may not have another comparable trio until the class of Hanners, Rohan, AJ, Reid etc if we can keep them all for the next 10 years. With Rohan and AJ having a year out however the comparable stats will be messed up a bit.

            Sky News has an article today about Stephen Milne with the heading "Police deny cover in Milne case" - and a photo of a well-known female leader of a political party!!!

            Ha ha! I wasn't the only one who noticed. Photo now amended to one of Stephen Milne. If you haven't guessed, the original photo accompanying the story was of Christine Milne. Given the charges laid against Stephen Milne, it is not exactly an article that the Greens would want to be associated with!

              Jetta took some fantastic photos at the Swan's Squad Clinic this week, I tried whittling them down to my top 7 but failed. So here's my top 17:

              Scissors, Paper, Rock rehab.
              Mad as a box of Hanners.
              So I'm like "You gave it to Judd? Really? I played so much better than him."
              Live Long and Prosper.
              You know BT eats little children for breakfast, eh?
              That dude's got my camera! Quick, after him!
              Obedient juniors make me happy.
              No, you can't see my Tattoo.
              Kick it to me! Kick it to me! PLEASE!
              Stick with us kid and you'll never come ninth again!
              Call me, call me now...
              Jazz Hands!!
              Darn kids, GET OFF THE LAWN!
              Marking an invisible ball, 101.
              Sorry Sam.
              Heeeeeeey!!!
              Come at me bro!

                Inspired idea to give the camera to Jett.

                On totally different note, here are the Hun's predictions for the run home. Quite generous to us, I think, putting our depleted outfit ahead of Freo. If the Dockers beat West Coast this round they're pretty much a lock for fourth.

                  There's 8 weeks to go. No team is a lock for top 4 yet, least of all a team that isn't in the top 4.

                    Great work Swanwolf. Jet's photos are good but love your captions.

                      Swans missing a third of the best 22 and playing four games against top eight, including the top two. Dockers have got Pavlich and Sandi back and playing just one top eight team (Port). Swans will have to be a lot more consistent to make the four.

                        Richmond are top 8 and the Dockers play them away next week.

                          Thank you, rojo. Just shortening the links and got carried away.

                            Stupidest Swans-related story this year. In an unfortunate choice of words, Jon Anderson complains that "Jetta is a pale shadow" of his 2012 self and puts him on list of biggest underperformers of the year. No awareness that Jetta has played just ten games, carrying an injury in some of them.

                            Seven goals to his name after 45 last year. Averages three less disposals and struggling to cope with the extra goal-side attention.

                              That is priceless! To be fair, I have noticed that Jetta has been struggling for a kick the last few games and was virtually unsighted against GWS.

                                Now you mention it, I've barely noticed him lately. Really needs to take a look at himself.
