For many years, the Swannies have been the envy of many Victorian-based AFL clubs. They always seem to be able to bring the best out of whoever they draft, no matter what state or team they have been drafted from.....the Swannies have always played up at the pointy end of the competition and always send out competitive teams that play good hard footy.......
There is a very good reason for this.
For many years now, the Swannies have enforced a simple recruiting rule for their club - its called the NO DICKHEADS rule.
Basically - the list manager for the Swans ensures that NO DICKHEADS are recruited to the Swans - regardless of what sort of reputation as a player they may have had at their old team or previous teams. This rule of NO DICKHEADS means that the Swans players are rarely in the news for being dickheads. They simply work together as a really good footy team, playing the ball and not the man and have enjoyed a lot of success since this rule was implemented. Clearly, this rule was not around when Warwick Capper was drafted....
Now KSRC does not have a 'list manager' as such - but we do have Wattie. I would like to thank Wattie for enforcing the NO DICKHEADS rule within KSRC, which has ensured that at least 2 massive dickheads have been removed from the KSRC playing list in the last couple of days. Well done mate, the team will be a lot better off without these 2.
Looking forward to a great season for the KSRC team in 2013.....
