Please don't treat us like idiots. That is the biggest crock of @@@@ I've read this year and I'm fully up-to-date on Spain giving apes the vote.If we deem Nick to be in our best 22, he'll play Saturday night, and that's based on all the criteria that the players and the coaching staff agree upon, and that will be based on, first and foremost, form and fitness.
Williams. Fit and in-form before retirement?
Crouch. Fit and in-form before rested?
Mathews. Fit and in-form before rested?
Kirk. In form? -
Not to mention...
Sure... Davis is not as good as Phillips, Dempster, Bevan, Mathews, Fosdike, McVeigh, Richards, Ablett, Schneider, Vogels..."If we don't think he's in our best 22, he won't get a game. He wasn't in our best 22 last Saturday night and that's why he didn't play. He wasn't in our best 22 the week before and that's why he didn't play."

Add to that the ressies have a bye this week from memory - that's an awesome way to get fitness and form happening - don't play at all...Comment

Not to mention:
We haven't banned him from speaking to the media
Roos is all over the shop.
The form and fitness argument is the biggest load of bull*&it since Crouch's request for patient doctor privilage.
Last week Roos was saying Davo was 1 of 48 not willing to try and win games and lambasting him for speaking to the media, now its merely due to form and fitness. Yet Mathews isn't fit or in form and would be rushed back into the side if given half teh chance.

When it comes to Nick Davis, Paul Roos = HypocriteComment

Do we have any photos of the females in the Save Nick Davis t-shirts, over which the tiger fans were most complimentary?Insert Your Life [HERE]Comment

I am sick of being treated like an idiot by the club. Do they think we aren't going to notice that they change their story every three days? Also, do they think that it is that hard to get "insider" knowledge in a city like Sydney, where half of us probably know more than what is in the media?
Maybe the circumstances shouldn't be published all over the media. Maybe theres a lot of things that go on at the Swans which shouldn't be published all over the media. But they shouldn't hide behind "form and fitness", and think that we will swallow it without question.Comment

Get out of there Nick, go join a club that wants you for your talents and is not so hung up on creating a boys club.
And Paul Roos you can pack your bags and head to the real club you so want to coach and that is the lions. Isnt it your desire to be coaching the lions in a year or two? Where don't let the door hit you on the way out!
And while you are at it Roos why don't you get some technitians to digitally alter the last 15 mins of last years final againts the cats and replace Nick with Brett kirk. We all know thats what you want!@
Biggest hypocrite in the league.

The only people who read what Roos says are swans supporters and the next oppositions coaches.
So why lie to 100,000 odd, in the hope that you might fool 5.
Port will have plans for Davis and no Davis. This whole monkeying around with team announcements is way overvalued.Comment

could we swap roos for cressa?

Okay, I want to see Nick playing as soon as possible but a few of you need to take a deep breath.
Firstly, Nick was dropped because of fitness/form
. Roos, reason, not ours obviously.
Secondly, the blow up came about because of Nick's "scapegoat" comments. So, in addition to having poor form and being unfit, he wasn't following the team code. Again Roos' reasoning.
He hasn't said anything yet about his form /fitness improving. Sure Nick has now patched up his problems with his team mates (using that term loosely!) but in Roos' eyes his form and fitness haven't been addressed.
Therefore I think he can still use that argument however weak we think it is."Fortunately, this is the internet, so knowing nothing is no obstacle to having an opinion!." Beerman 18-07-2017Comment

So how does he justify playing Williams when he was injured all year? What about some of the others?
How does he justify Kirks bad form atm?
One rule for Nick, one rule for the others.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
Any decisions made around the intepretation of the rules above are entirely at the discretion of the site administrators. Such decisions are final.

b) If they are abusive, report them. We will consider banning them. Don't stoop to their level.Bottom line
You are a guest on RWO - You are expected to play by the rules of the house.
