Why Don't We Get No Respect?
Ah, the football media and most likely the football world as a whole, you just got to love them. If they aren't calling you lucky then they are just plain ignoring you. This pre season has seen some of the media's best work in regards to the Swans, NOT.
To be honest ever since Leo Barry took THAT mark deep in defence all the way back in the September, the whole football world has shown this football club no repect.
Que dragging out the following picture for full effect

Classic example of the shit the Swans have had to put up with this pre season, along with the many misquotings of the Swans preseason record under Roosy is this article which shows two side of the football world when the Swans are involved of late. Swans don't appear on Wallace's radar for high-flyers
Great to know the man us fans rightfully rejected as a coach of this coach to lead us to glory and has never done anything better than lead the Bulldogs to one of the AFL's greatest ever chokes in 1997 against the Crows. How this mans opinion counts of anything, espally his opinion of us after his appointment was knocked back and the man who took his place led us to the promised, is beyond me.
But I guess regardless of the crap flying around (and there is plenty of it) we are still premiers, still have the team capable of winning the flag and will yet again go under the radars of every football coach, media expect and fan.
Some people just never learn their lessions.
