I thought Warrington Wolves where after him offering cash + Wheeler.

I have recently been informed that the Blackpool Donkeys have made him a better offer.

Wire don't need Swifty, I've heard they've signed Josh Mansour, Brett Morris, Manu vatuvei, Jason nightingale, roger tuivasa-sheck, Ryan hall, & wendell sailor to go with there team full of bang average half backs.

I thought Cooper Cronk was giving up his £300k salary, his £10k/match Origin and Australia match payments, his third party deals, his Australia shirt, his Queensland shirt and his decent chances of winning the NRL, all for the prospect of however much Moran can pay him and the opportunity to help keep Warrington out of the middle 8s?

Dr Doolittle told me Jonathan Thurston was on his way to Warrington for a medical after hearing reports from his neighbours pet Chihuahua, who is friends with Thurston's dog, which is a cross between a Bulldog and a Shih Tzu.
This rumour was later confirmed by Elvis who was riding a flying pig followed by Lord Lucan on a unicorn.

To be honest, I feel a bit sorry for Swifty.

He's one of those unfortunate players who is very effective (he's always close to the top of our yardage total, breaks plenty of tackles etc.) but tragically unfortunate insofar as mistakes are concerned.

It's not that he makes mistakes. All players do. And many more than Swift. It's the NATURE of his mistakes. Whilst some players possess the kind of freakish luck which sees them only drop a pass or throw one directly into touch whilst the team is thirty points up and/or camped on the opposition line - guys like Swift and (worse still) Francis Meli are destined to make not just costly blunders, but SPECTACULARLY COSTLY blunders.

It doesn't matter that he only dropped one catch all game whilst others bombed four or five. It's the SPECTACULAR BLUNDER which fans remember.

Someone once said it's bad being a loser. But it's misery being an unlucky loser.

I know exactly what he means.

Please don't make excuses for him. He along with Dawson can be relied upon to make the same schoolboy errors week in and week out.
