Great win....as someone said , it was like the old days. They actually put pressure on the other team when they were in possession....they actually held the ball in the forward line - several times.....
BUT ...... OMG how many times will Barry, Ablett , LRT get caught HTB with oodles of time??? (Not to mention Mattner and Richards in plenty of earlier games...even Kennelly and B2 on occasion). Please, please, please can we iron out this potentially fatal flaw? A couple of those HTB were nothing short of a disgrace.
And PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE play on quickly and get it to a one on one in the fifyty, FFS!
CHEER, CHEER

I am a disgrace.
But even from a warm air-conditioned environment, that performance by Brett Kirk would go down as one of the finest individual performances by a Swan in a big game since Goodes' 2003 QF. One man by sheer force of will, dragging his teammates over the line from failure to success.
Sure, I know that he had a fair few mates, with Jolly, Buchanan and Jude Bolton being pretty consistently good around the contested ball all night, and McVeigh being excellent in patches; but in the 3rd quarter it was like there were 3 of him out there. And they were all champions.Comment

I just read the whole thread from start to finish, reliving the whole game from the dodgy umpires to the brilliant second half. Super stuff
And a big thumbs up to FIGJAM for jumping aboardComment

Kirky is just inspirational. For a bloke at the stage in his career where you would think he would well and truly be on the downwards slope, 08 has to be right up there. I think he will win Club Champion, and I reckon he will be in the top 1/2 dozen for the Brownlow as well. And IMO he is heads and shoulders the best captain in terms of being able to lead his team from the front and pick them up when a game is all but lost.
Had a sensational game tonight and lets hope he can do it again next week (And for the 2 weeks following as well would be nice
)

The maggots tried their hardest to spoil it tonight, but the swans were a lot better than that!!
OMG.
What a fantastic game.
The shinboners are going to love the VFL.Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.Comment

Kirk - motivational!!! Brilliant game.. I haven't seen a better individual swan performance in a long time
ROK...talk about making your plays count....and I loved the mark turn and play on to advantage... top stuff.
Macca rose to the occasion in a big game, was great at the clearances
Super Ted, BBBH and Jack all very good...
Not too many passengers tonight. I'll sleep happy tonight!

Just got home! That was a superb 2nd half effort by the boys.
ROK was amazing!
Spida didn't put a tap wrong. His clearance work was incredible!
Kizza, Kirky and Moore were excellent and it's hard to go past Ted for an outstanding game.
Hall owned Firrito - breathtaking.
Ablett and Kennelly had a couple of dodgy's but what I liked was they contested and everyong started backing them up.
THAT WAS A GREAT WIN!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.

Breaches of this rule carry the highest infraction points and may result in permanent bans on a first offence.

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
