I disagree.
Not on his talent, just that he doesn't do much.
With the amount of game time he is given - usually a little over half the match - he's still pulling 15-20 genius touches a game.
(Does anyone know where to find the game time stat online?)
I've said it before, Bird in the middle as much as Ablett is (With Luke banished to the cold hard land of SibCanberra) will greatly help our midfield.
Grundy should stay in the team.Comment

For Christ's sake you lot are worse than a bunch of Richmond supporters.
Everything was rosy only a week ago, and now we got towelled up by a better team than us on the day and you want half the team kicked out never to return again.
We're not Geelong (although I wish we were).
on second thoughts, why am I even bothering, you'll all just turn on me now anyway......."It's up to the rest of the players in the room to make a new batch of premiership players next year," Adam Goodes, triple Bob Skilton Medallist, October 7, 2011.

OK, So I could phrased it better. Not a high possession getter (not taking TOG into account).
He does offer a lot more positives, than Ablett.
Try the Stats Homepage on the little side meun to your left, for TOG stats.
PS: LOL Nico, should've left that one in, mate!!

Well Goodes was probably Best on Ground,Hall kicked 6 goals ,Craig Bolton was superb,Akka who has been winning games for them was negated by Couch and we lose by 40points?????? This is surely worthy of a deeper analysis than yours? Something is wrong with the gasme plan or coaching or personell.We are a better team than this!For Christ's sake you lot are worse than a bunch of Richmond supporters.

I thought we towelled ourselves up.
Everything was rosy a week ago because we were playing rosier footy. I still contend that we play the SCG better than any other ground and this sometimes clouds our judgement about how we are travelling. Some opposition sides look clueless on the SCG which may at times provide us with a false belief about how good we are. It's all too Jekyll and Hyde for me at the moment, but I'm not calling for any heads. Teams in the main pick themselves.It's very hard to live in a studio apartment in San Jose with a man who's learning to play violin. That's what she told the police when she handed them the empty revolver.

ScottH - fair call.
Hartijon - no deep analysis needed. We play to our best (like v PA) we beat 14 other teams, simple as that. We only need to be 5% off and five or six of them beat us. Yes, we are a much better team than v WB, but why kick out all the blokes who did the job so well only six days earlier?
Lohengrin - That's a low blow to a 21-year member. Maybe I phrased it wrong. I meant I wish we had Geelong's ability, not their club. Lucky you added the smiley on the end or I might have got another (undeserved) yellow car.
Snajik - Not a bad call. We do own the SCG, but we have a good record in Canberra as well. However, as I said above - why sack half a team that dominated a week ago.
I may get disappointed and even despondent from time to time, but I will always keep the faith in my Swannies and what they're doing.
Bet there won't be a thread like this next week when we beat Hawthorn.

Canberra record isn't bad, though after Saturday it's now 5 wins 4 losses and 1-2 against the Dogs. I think that record may also have been inflated by beating a bottoming out Melbourne on two occasions.It's very hard to live in a studio apartment in San Jose with a man who's learning to play violin.

Ill take that ride cos i think he will do great on rioli. He just has to change his tactics abit so rioli cant get on a fast lead! Crouch is fast when he is fit and i believe he is gunna be even fitter this week. I really hope he lasts the year and goes out the way he deserves. (if he goes out)OUR EDGE IS REGComment

Ah Rioli..the one we let get away. Who did we pick instead????? um....
Every time I see this guy play i wish he was in our team but then again would he still have the individualistic flair and would he be benched for having a shot from impossible angles? But he at least kicks goals and his defensive pressure is superb!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
