I think I read somewhere that the Eagles will have 6 players back, including Vanilla Ice.
As per my first post in this thread, I wont be surprised (but will be dissapointed) if Roos rests Hall this weekend.
Bummer about Kennelly, however Malcheskivioopsbsi seems to be filling Kennelly's role now.
And maybe Spida should be called Big Kev (http://www.smh.com.au/news/business/...9582720.html)?Comment

Having that many players coming back from injury in the same week is risky as far as the weagles are concerned. I don't think all of them would be 100%, mentally or physically.
Cousins and Judd won't play.Comment
-
the question that must be asked though, is whether it is better to come up against a faltering weagle team that has a point to prove and season to restore? or an eagles outift travelling reasonably well, and more likely to be complacent?
the last time we played them the club was in some serious turmoil and they had several injury issues. they somehow managed to close ranks, play hard and beat us by that damn one point in that heartbreaker of a season opener.
having said that, i know we only played carlton, but seriously, was it not encouraging to see the swans play some beautiful attacking footy? passes were pinpoint accurate, plays executed to perfection and all players performing their roles very efficiently.Comment

And in related news, Cousins set to line up against Swans.
Let's hope that when he encounters the boundary line, he runs across it and onto the ground, and doesn't try crawling along it while attempting to snort it."Unbelievable!" -- Nick Davis leaves his mark on the 2005 semi finalComment

Beware the wounded Eagle, me thinks! We should have smashed them in round 1 with their injuries but we managed to stuff it up, we should have smashed the pies with their injuries in round 12 but we managed to stuff that up also, I have far more confidence when we are playing a full strength side and know we have our work cut out for us.Comment

I was impressed that they gave Spida the spokemans role so early for the Weagles game, every paper carried his 'We are going to have a crack' as virtually a headline grab, he said let them put up their best list for the game, very good gamesmanship for another must win. That would have been authorized by Roosey... he's definitely plotting to win."He was proud of us when we won and he was still proud of us when we lost' Tami Roos about Paul Sept 06.

Hall and Kennelly in doubt
We need them both!The Swans are considering flying to Perth on Wednesday without the services of co-captain Hall (hamstring tightness) and rebounding defender Kennelly (sore knee).Swannies for life!Comment
-
Kennelly's mum & aunt are visiting at the moment and he wants them to fly home via Perth - that should be incentive enough for him to get on the field.Comment
-
Should Tadgh have played on the weekend? It's not the first time he has been rushed into the side.
If it risks further injury I'd rather see them play in September.

Regardless of West Coast's relative lack of form at the moment, this week's game will go up a notch simply because of the recent history between the two clubs. Not sure it would be a great match to bring LRT back for when
a) his natural opponent against West Coast, Hansen, has been injured and is very much an outside chance to play
b) we have a couple of relatively easy (if any game can be described that way) games coming up against Richmond and the Dees to ease him back
c) he's not been looking overly confident in himself in the magoos.
If Kennelly misses, Laidlaw is the obvious replacement - adds something of the speed and long kicking ability of Kennelly, though clearly not yet anywhere close to Kennelly's class. Was stiff to be dropped after one decent game, the spaces of Subi should give him a chance to show what he's got, and there's no-one similar in better form in the reserves (if you agree with the official report from the weekend plus ORB's, rather than mine and BBB's impression that he was reasonably quiet).
If Hall misses, can probably toss a coin between Vogels and Grundy as to who gets the gig. The fact that Vogels didn't get a game this weekend might tilt things in Reg's favour.Comment

I think this may be a danger game as the weagles are coming off an embarassing loss to Port.While Everitt,Malceski and Spiderman performed exceptionally against Carlton ,they carried some players who did not play well at all.There were some players with very low stats and each had fair game time.These players will need to step up on Saturday.Comment

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.

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.

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.

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.

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
