Yes all three matches at Rosedale on Sunday were definite nailbiters ... and all showed some pretty good standard of footy. A great advertisement for the game with all matches played in the right spirit. The ground was in pretty good nick - a bit dusty/sandy but that has to be expected in this climate.
I heard that it was Campbelltown u/18s first win in a few years (??) & they were a happy bunch afterwards. By the looks of their side, they will win a few more games before season's end.See me run a marathon again as a leprechaun?

It was Campbelltown U18's second win for the season and should of been their third after a narrow 7 point loss to a St George team that included 6 players from their No. 1 team?Originally posted by Rafters

Not very fair on the teams that only have one team if clubs with 2 teams can interchange players!On The TrailComment

I've seen East Coast Eagles 2 weeks in a row now. They look far & away the most professional skillful team in the SFL. They literally tore the hearts out of the Bulldogs. With quality players such as Clark Keating's brother in ruck & former Sandover medalist Gus Seebeck at full forward, I can't see any SFL team getting anywhere near them.
You can see that the Eagles from Perth have spared no expense in assisting them. The coaches are all in Eagles jackets and hats & are all miked up a la AFL coaches. They look so much more professional than everyone other team I have watched this season. That little rover #58 can play too. He kicked a couple of excellent snapped goals.
Still it was completely crazy to have both teams on Saturday playing in royal blue strips. I know SFL clubs are run on the smell of an oily rag, but surely one of the clubs could come up with an away top so that that sort of guernsey clash could be avoided. When I looked down the other end, it just looked like 40 blue blobs running around the field.

Looks can be deceiving- ECE
All huff and puff ECE like previous years. Reminds me of last year- did they make the finals?
Wearing hand me downs from an AFL club is hardly looking the part.
As for number #58, im sure if uni put little Roberts on him he would not have got a kick. Actually Roberts would have been a marking option!!!
I do agree that ECE would be favourites at this stage
1.80 ECE
2.75 Penno
4.50 St George
12.00 Norths
20.00 Wests
25.00 C'Town, Uni
66.00 Balmain, Wollongong
Even though Im a Penno supporter, would mind a piece of Crows and Norths at these prices

Looking at the results for the last few weeks i sure others have seen Pennant Hills over that time and may well say the same thing. But the games won by 100 plus points mean nothing once the top teams meet later in the year. ECE can have all the jackets/hats/trousers/microphones they like but that really means little as far as on field results go. However with big guns like Clarke Keating's brother firing they will certainly be a top team for 2006. How didn't Keating get drafted when he was a young fella??? Surely the Swans must have fancied him after taking Simon Feast, Gerrard Bennett, James Meiklejohn and now Paul Chambers over the last few years???Comment

Re: No Idea
H&T. Sorry to pose a conflicting view. You would actually be surprised how far advanced we are.
May I ask what team you support and your involvement?

Your right Ash, I would be surprised, very surprised.

Having a son play in AFL or you carry a water bottle at SAFL level doesnt make you an expert
Im actually referring to intelligence and was not discussing the state of the league.
I too have playing experience in and connections at other state associations. Big deal. SO do many others. However, a minority of us are aware, some a few cents short in a dollar.
You may even be in the minority but I can only analyse what I read.
You involved with ECE I assume and team going well. To thumbs up

AnAFL state that only has one more team than QLD or NSW. Wow, you must know your stuff. Especially when these two non-afl states have won how many many of the past 5 GFs???
H&T, please buddy, tell someone who cares.

- RWO Forum Rules (PLEASE READ FIRST)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your posts may be deleted, without warning or notification at moderator discretion, for breach of any of the RWO rules set out below. If you have any questions or concerns about post/thread removal, please feel free to PM a moderator or Email us at [email protected]
Do not post your queries on the main boards. Such posts WILL be removed, without further explanation.
Constant breaches of the rules will result in your access to RWO being reduced as the Moderator / Administrator group see fit. RWO uses the vBulletin Infraction System to deal with breaches of the RWO rules. All Infractions have an expiry date. Such an expiry date may be as short as 10 days or as long as 6 months. Multiple infractions, depending on the number of points a member accumulates, WILL result in temporary bans from the site and CAN result in a permanent ban. Please note that some Infractions have an expiry date of "Never" and WILL result in the RWO member being banned from the site immediately.
1) Signatures / Avatars
Keep signatures under 4 lines of standard sized fonts (if you must use large fonts, use just one line) as a courtesy to all users who read the forums.
Do not use signatures / avatars as an opportunity to make jibes at other forum members. This will be considered to be sniping (refer Rule 6 below). You may not refer to another RWO forum member, or quote anything they have written, without permission from that member. Using an anonymous tag does not make it acceptable. If quotes are not removed, we reserve the right to remove them, without notification. If in doubt as to whether something is acceptable or not, don't use it!
2) Spamming
Advertising for personal commercial purposes is NOT permitted. Placing links to sites that other users may find of interest / personal websites is acceptable within reason (ie constantly posting links will be frowned upon).
3) Deliberately avoiding the RWO swear filter
RWO is a site that is accessible by Swans supporters of all ages and walks of life. A swear filter is in place to mask offensive words and phrases. This swear filter contains offensive words and variant spellings of offensive words to stop you from deliberately avoiding the swear filter. Do not attempt to avoid the swear filter through alternate spelling of offensive words. Do not attempt to avoid the swear filter by devising systems to fool the swear filter in its recognition of offensive words.
4) Inappropriate Language / Excessive swearing
RWO is a site that is accessible by Swans supporters of all ages and walks of life. Moderators will let some minor cases through. Anything deemed to be of poor taste or of an offensive nature may be removed at moderator discretion. Consider all members when posting; what you think is funny, not all members will feel the same way.
5) Trolling / Baiting
Deliberately posting on threads in an attempt to stir / bait other RWO users will not be tolerated.
6) Flaming / Sniping / Abuse / Insulting other members
If you have to have a go at someone personally, take it off the boards. Everyone else doesn't need to see your hissy fits. Remember, "Play the ball, not the man". This includes spouses or partners. If you don''t like a post, don't flame, snipe, abuse or insult in response - it makes the job of moderation much harder. Report the post through the forum reporting mechanism (click on the Triangle with the exclamation mark) and let the Moderator / Administrator group deal with it.
7) Legal issuesa) The Moderator / Administrator group will keep a very close eye on threads discussing rumours or anything that could be potentially libellous. Moderators and Administrators are not interested in the chance of legal action regardless of how small - if deemed that there is ANY threat to RWO potentially, we will come down hard on it.
b) Due to potential issues of copyright infringement and the potential legal implications, posting of complete articles is NOT permitted. If necessary, post a link to the article. Where appropriate, you may quote sections of the article to aid in discussion.
c) Due to potential issues of copyright infringement and potential legal implications, posting of links to "live streaming (of AFL games)" and "AFL content" sites that are not AFL endorsed is NOT permitted. Posts with such links will be removed immediately and infraction points will be issued.
d) Freedom of speech does NOT = freedom to slander
8) Racial / Sexual Discrimination / Villification
It is not acceptable for members to engage in racial and/or sexual discrimination / villification. It is not acceptable for members to use terminology in describing race or gender in a derogatory manner. Discussing and disputing the views and opinions of other posters is acceptable. Personally vilifying or abusing others for having certain characteristics, or being a member of a certain group (or because you think they're a member of a certain group), is not. This rule shall apply to any post attacking race, skin colour, ethnic background, gender and sexuality.

9) Prohibited
Anything deemed to be of Adult content or porn related nature will be removed immediately. Selling or offering of drugs, drug references, other than those openly discussed and identified in the press, will also be removed immediately. Breaches of this rule carry the highest infraction points and may result in permanent bans on a first offence.
10) Off-topic Posts
Some members prefer to just read Swans or footy related posts. This is, after all, a SSFC website. Ensure you post threads in the appropriate forum, or they will be moved. While threads will sometimes move away from the original topic, do not deliberately drag a thread away from its original subject.
11) Attachments
Attachments within the size limit prescribed are permitted. However, due to costs associated with uploads/downloads, if you wish to attach a number of files within a thread, or feel that the quality of the attachment is compromised by the file size restrictions, you may wish to use external hosting providers and link to the files there.
12) Moderator / Administrator Group
The Moderator / Administrator group reserve the right to delete or move threads / posts as well as remove signatures / avatars as necessary according to the rules of the RWO forum.
13) Final decisions
