I don't care about Davis any more and whether he'll still play in seniors this year. His performance in the last quarter of 2005 SF will remain a lasting memory of him and now it's time to move on.Comment

Borderline with BLT, maybe. He had a few bad clangers with the ball coming forward, but was ok in defence.
J Bolton was better than him. Both had two bad shots at goal.
Barlow ran with the ball, was mostly effective, no.
Buchanan didn't have a good game, but didn't have a howler either.
Barry had quite a good game in defence. Didn't have a lot of the ball, but did well considering the delivery to Thompson and Jones was reasonable. Had some important touches in close, was pretty crafty on his opponent.
Davis' opponent had 8 contested possessions, and 5 rebound 50s. I dont suspect the run off him in the 4th will go on his highlights reel either. @@@ for me.He ate more cheese, than time allowedComment

LRT did nothing.
J Bolton butchered the ball most times he touched it, not just his shots at goal.
Barlow's disposal was ordinary - ran with it yes, but took wrong options and missed targets.
Same with Buchanan.
Barry was completely beaten by Thompson in the first half.
MOL's opponent was North's best.
Edit: Looking at DT numbers, below Davis were J Bolton, Buchanan, LRT and White. Barlow slightly above him.
It's neither here nor there whether he was the worst or near the worst. As I said his confidence is gone and is struggling to have an influence. When the thing that he normally does well, and is one of the best in the competition at doing, is letting him down then confidence is a major factor. If he had nailed those two misses then he would have been seen to have been an effective forward option and his confidence may have improved later in the game. As I say, Roos' lockdown game doesn't suit him. A skilled small forward is never going to do well in the Swans team as it plays now. Nothing to do with him being one-dimensional or out of date - he would do very well in a number of other teams. Forwards have a horrible time at the Swans, as evidenced by our terrible goal kicking record under Roos.Last edited by NMWBloods; 27 April 2008, 11:02 PM.Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.

Nick Davis should never wear the red and white again.

dropping davis will just destory the little confidence has left then what are we left with?
one less goal kicking option. So we have only oloughlin and okeefe left from our top 5 goal scorers from last year.
We struggle enough to kick goals we have to let davis have a decent run in the side.
perhaps push him up the field get him involved it will benefit the team more. He has a lot of "upside" left in himTheres not much left to sayComment

Dead man walking I'm afraid.
Whatever his contractual situation is at the moment, I don't think he'll be with us in 2009 if Roos is still there.
I noticed Darcy Daniher kicked 4 goals yesterday for Bendigo Bombers (kicked a few in the previous weeks also). Did we go hard enough for him???Comment

Hopefully he goes either way...he just does not look interested. Maybe a combination of not being interested in the first place compounded by a coach who does not like him...it is obvious he does not want to be at the club at the moment and it does not appear the club wants him.Go you mighty BLOODBOYS!Comment

Tough game for him today, missed 2 goals you'd expect him to kick in his sleep. Guarantee he has about 200 shots from that pocket through the week.I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his timeComment

At least Bolton fights , which makes him great with skilled in form runners around him.(Malcheski) Jarrod Moore could have iced 2 of the games this year but missed. the young fella White showed he has the power to be able to play, and Hall punch cost us nothing, he has a broken arm. Nick Davis is a front runner who like signing autographs, Spider will be back next week. Today we had 13 premiership players in the side, with 4 available next. And Kirks point was a goal!
The lucks about to be turned around!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.

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.
