I've cooled on this proposition with the successful return of Doyle to the seniors. As long as he remains injury free we don't really need Spider.Does God believe in Atheists? -
I've cooled on the idea since they started talking $700,000+ over 2 yearsOriginally posted by goswannie14

Swans "We'll take you but, the hawks will want a lot in return."
Spida "How about I play crap for 12 months, and do a few naughty things, which will reduce my player value?"
Swans "Thats a good idea, get some bad media publicity, play crap, and get a minor injury that will keep you out for the last month or so of the season"
Spida "Sweet!, So the deal is set then I get $700K for 2 years, and an unlimited supply of Bourbon. The Hawks get first two draft picks and Chambers/Mathews/Richards/Kirk and a years supply of Buddhist prayer. The other good thing about the deal is no one will know who I am in Sydney. I'm a pretty inconspicous looking guy, I won't stand out at all!!"
Swans ((( Secret Hand Shake ))) "Deny all!!"Comment

Swans: Sure, no worries, there's plenty of room at Nick Davis' place.

Media beat up - how could he be fined for being a guest commentator the same amount that Tarrant & Johnson were fined for being involved in a pub brawl or that Brogan was fined for punching a Crows supporter?
The rest of the story is a slanted re-hash of historic events.Comment

The Swans would be crazy. West Coast would be laughing.Originally posted by Dr Diabolical
The rumour is Gardiner to Hawthorn, Everitt to Sydney, Davis to West Coast.
Insane trade by Sydney.
Great trade by West Coast.
Okay by Hawthorn.
It's the sort of trade only Sheedy could pull off."As everyone knows our style of football is defensive and unattractive, and as such I have completely forgotten how to mark or kick over the years" - Brett Kirk

Same. If Doyle gets his fitness and touch back then we don't need Spida.Originally posted by goswannie14

Unless there's any better source forthcoming, 'the rumour' was started by bored posters on BF (or equivalent) who thought to themselves, 'Okay, which 3 clubs have high-profile players on the outer? Let's manufacture a trade!'Originally posted by Dr Diabolical

Expect to see more rumours of a three-way trade along the lines of Akermanis to Hawthorn, Spida to Sydney, Davis to Brisbane. Etcetera.
If Sydney pay Spida $700,000 a year (or in fact, any more than half that) they would have rocks in their head. And I don't think they have rocks in their head.
And if Sydney do get Spida, even presuming that we also dump Doyle, where does that leave Shaw and in particular Ericksen? I know that Ruckmen Take Time, but to draft a guy in 2003 and keep him on the list not expecting him to play until 2009, in which year he turns 24? That's just ridiculous. I don't like the smell of the whole thing.Comment

It would be a joke to pay $700,000 for a guy who may not last 2 seasons.
I suggest we draft Leuenberger with our first round draft pick this year. My mate in Perth said he is an absolute gun and one of the best underage ruckman to ever get drafted.Official Driver Of The "Who Gives A @@@@ As The Player Will Get Delisted Anyway" Bandwagon.

- If this is your first visit, be sure to check out the FAQ by clicking the link above. You may have to register before you can post: click the register link above to proceed. To start viewing messages, select the forum that you want to visit from the selection below.
- 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.
14) Vistitors from other sites
You are most welcome to join in discussions on RWO, but remember, you are a GUEST on our site. Abide by the RWO Forum Rules or we WILL ban you.
15) Guidelines regarding Visitors to RWO for RWO members.
Be nice, not all visitors are trolls.a) If they annoy you, ignore them. They want a reaction. Don't give them one.
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.
