Just noticed that Murray Newman has landed himself in strife with the law. Charged with GBH after an altercation in Northbridge last weekend. Not good news for such a promising young player, would be a shame if Swannies were unable to utilise him in the final year before the rubbish alignments take effect.

We could actually have him full time if Nisbett sacks him Hachii ...unless of course his punishment is being sent to the East Perth Eagles for 2013!

Mmm... sounds like it is a similar situation to the one Kraks found himself in BH. He may gladly take the East Perth Eagle sentence over the one he is likely to face. Fear that he will be lost to footy for a while.

Woosha beat him twice. Bit of problem there maybe?

Maybe he just doesnt want to be there! Hell i wouldnt!

Ran over 9 and a half minutes for the 2km apparently.

Just read the paper that was his second run apparently, ran a 8 13 on his first run.

Walters got exiled back to Swans last year, for returning in bad shape. Newman might be wanting the same thing. Never got reported just how unfit Walters was, unlike Newman...

Swans can roll out the fitness program they had for Sonny..
Dayle Garlett might be joining him back at Swans with a lot of clubs not keen on drafting him due to his off-field lifestyle

I hope Newman is banished back to us and i hope Garlett doesnt get a gig either!!

Anchorman, with Walters it was a case of the club coming out and saying that his fitness levels weren't up to AFL standard. The point being that there wasn't anything specific mentioned, for example, the coach creaming him in a time trial, and him coming dead last. Unlike what WC have done with Newman. They seem to be more than a little upset with Newman and seem to be making it personal, not the most positive thing for someone to deal with when you consider recent events.
