Sounds like mudgee could go one better this year ? Have the dragons lost anyone but ? Did Craigy actually go there ? Don't know what to believe with you saviour after your mudge to wests rumourComment

Dunno, had about 40 there last night. 20 young blokes, 6 or so new recruits and then the rest of the 14 made up of 1sts and ressies. I haven't seen craigy but there's talk so who knows.
Think sado is gone. Sainy is in Canada but will be back for season start. Surely MG won't go round again but he's pushing 40 so that's expected.
However, I did see a 2009 premier division saints team photo up on our board. @@@@ it was an ordinary team. About half the team is either playing ressies or has dropped out because they weren't getting a run in ressies. Mudgee has completely turned the club around. I've only been involved in AFL for 3 years so don't know mudgee's record but he's completely changed the club.
I'd say saints will be top 3 again, but who knows if we win it. I'd say 5 recruits that I've seen who will play firsts, who knows what else is coming. Plus half of ressies has played premier over the years so should be a strong squad with lots of depth.
Just my opinion from a guy who struggles to make ressies and has only been watching afl for 3 years so don't take as gospel.
Oh and Tom Green will be a handy pick up. Brought his brother up and a few mates. Can shoot a basketball too Thomas Green Wins 5k with an Amazing Half Court Shot, Hawks v.s Taipans. - YouTubeLast edited by saviour01; 17 January 2014, 11:01 PM.Comment

Clearances have opened. Most clubs will keep their cards close to their chest until the season nearly starts; but there's some interesting names to come.

Firstly, it starts to feel like the footy season when Norris joins the forum - welcome to a new season Norris !
Give us ya best again.
Secondly...we did this same thing this time last year, but have a look at the "INCOMINGS" for the Bats - they've got a whole team (with bench players) in their 'pending arrivals' already. I watched them last season and they looked like they could have made finals - they'll be in my tips for big improvement this year.Comment

Interesting in the middle of swans turf...

Not a good sign to see seven Balmain players leaving the sinking ship.
Suspect they will really struggle to put two teams on the park as they trek across the city to play in MarrickvilleComment

What have you heard Northern_Swan?Comment

UTS have gone in early with their clearances - they've done well again. Seems that no-one moves to Sydney without the Bats knowing about it.
I tend to agree with you - they were a better team than their ladder position indicated last year, and troubled most of of the top teams.

Hey Mug, more names will be added to outbound clearance list.
Wests recruited Conway, Round, Lee-Steere plus about 4 more journeymen that are mates with these 3.
Eagles recruited Cass x 2. I can't argue with that, it makes sense for the Cass boys to go somewhere closer to home.
Incoming we have one big name that will have a huge impact on Div 1. Once we have ink on paper I can say who it is. Plus a few others that have returned now the old committee are out of the picture and some new recruits that are local to the area and have just moved from SA and QLD.
We're currently getting 20-25 training plus apologies from about 6 that get stuck at work or whatever. Last year and for most of the years before that we were getting 4-8 players to pre-season training. So I think we'll be ok to get two teams on the field each week.Last edited by Steiger; 5 February 2014, 08:36 AM.Comment

Does this mean you are paying players?
How is the coaching situation coming along? Hally is not going to be a player coach is he? He has been at more clubs than Tiger Woods but good on him for coming full circle and back to the club to help out.Comment

- 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
