Why hasnt XxX been in here to bask in the glory of Gourdis?

He was his love child before the draft.

A pic of Gourdis

Oooh!!!  That's what I like to see.  If
only I was 20 years younger

u would still be 20 years older than him 

That's not a very nice thing to say!

Sorry Saintly one

I thought it was a very quick and witty response.  I'm sure Julz has a good enough sense of humour to handle a comment like that.

Oops sorry One-eyed, Back to the topic. 

Yeah in a way Ox was right.  Had my passport photo taken that day - would have looked 40 years older!

SEN are claiming we have already notified Gourdis that we will be redrafting him in the PSD with pick 6.

[Infamy]

Good 

[pmac21]

Good move, still believe he has a lot to offer 

[Stripes]

What about that guy from Sydney? Wasn't the story that if we wanted him we needed to pick him up in the PSD or Sydney would claim him with their rookie pick. I'm guessing people are just wondering why we are no using our pick 6 in the PSD to recruit Cousins so are pulling out names.

i think it's lame if we use a PSD pick on him.  i mean, why bother delisting him in the first place if we intend to pick him up again. 

i mean, sure, if we intended to draft him as a rookie then it's fair enough, but getting him with a PSD pick is just stupid management IMO, no matter how much potential he has.

In the end of season report i recieved in the main, Gourdis was a notable absentee from departures list.

I don't understand...

We can rookie Gourdis, right?

So I understand going through all of this Polak business if we had wanted someone that Sydney could rookie before us (Klemke). But if we are taking Gourdis, why not take Cousins in the PSD @ 6 and rookie Gourdis?

[mightytiges]

We can rookie Gourdis but clubs with picks before us (like Freo) can grab him first before our pick 8.

If we're redrafting Gourdis in the PSD then we either don't rate Klemke or don't believe the Swans want him.

Word is that Freo like Gourdis at their rookie pick which is before our's.

FWIW I still think we'll take Gourdis and Klemke in the PSD and that the Cousins stuff is a bit of hoo haa.

Thanks guys

I hadn't heard of Freo's interest - don't get much Tiger news here in the Rheinland

[tigersalive]

If the Cuz scenario is a major media beat up and we get the rookie list spot for Polak I think the scenario is pretty clear then.

6. Gourdis
7. Klemke

I don't think we would bother speaking to Cousins and putting up the media shutters at Punt Rd if we are just planning to take two kids in the PSD.

Agree. It even seems beyond Sheeds to play with the media and general public's minds like that.
