Round 21 v Collingwood, MCG.
BEST: Goodes, Jolly, Smith, Kirk, C. Bolton, Shaw
With an outside chance of still making the finals, a win here was critical.
Kicking 0.4 wasn't the sort of start that the swans would have wanted, however, Smith had the job on Didak, and Shaw on Swan (Dane that is), and kept them relatively quiet and the swans trailed by only 11 points. The swans traded goals with the pies in the 2nd term, thru Moore, Smith and Goodes, but couldn't get two in a row, until Moore put his body on the line to tap the ball over the top to Bevan who goaled, but Moore paid a heavy price, and never returned to the field. A defining moment as he was playing well up till that moment. 1 point would be the closest the swans would get to the pies. The pies put on 5 goals to 2 in the third term, and 3 to 2 in the last.
Pies by 41.
Goodes finished with 3 goals, Moore a punctured lung and the final nail in the swans season.

Round 22 v Brisbane @ SCG.
BEST: J Bolton, Shaw, O?Keefe, Mattner, O?Loughlin, Goodes
Lions need a win to get a home final, the Swans are seeing off 3 legends.
MOL opened the scoring with his first goal within a minute of the opening bounce. Who hit MOL on the chest?
Goodes of course. How many times have we seen that? The lions scored the next 2 goals in quick succession, before Thornton, and then the man himself, Goodes put the Swans back in front. The lions then kicked the next one, to go to the first break 1 point up. Mr Magic kicked his 2nd, the first of the term, to take the lead again. The Lions then kicked 7 of the next 9 goals to open up a comfortable lead at half time. 26 points. They then kicked the next two goals of the third term to give the lions a seemingly unbeatable lead. The swans dug deep, and White, O'Loughlin, Goodes, White and Kirk kicked the next 5 to reduce the margin to just 8 points, before Brown kicked his 3rd to put the lead back to 2 goals. (14 points). O'Loughlins 4th goal, in his final game, and another to Jack got the swans back to within 2 points, before McGrath gave the lions some more breathing space. The swans seemed to have the momentum, and the passion to win, when Goodes got the team back to 1 point down. A lions thrust forward was quelled by a terrific mark from the retiring Leaping Leo, before the ball was lost and the Lions scored with 4 minutes to go. The swans couldn't perform a Houdini act, and the lions held on to win.
Leo, Magic and Crouch said goodbye to the adoring crowd.
Lions by 8 points.
O?Loughlin with 4 goals, White and Goodes 3.

No real surprise there. He is a favourite son, and the good things he does on the field are usually noticed by most. Let's hope the Umps saw him just as much.
He picked up 8 BOG's (5 votes), including the final 4 games, and 4 out of 5 games from rnd 7 to 11, missing out on the round 9 game (Port Adelaide).
He also score votes in 14 of the 22 games played.
O'Keefe had 5 BOG's and picked up votes in 13 games.
Jude got 2 BOG's from 11 games he scored votes in.
Shaw got 1 BOg, but still scored votes in 10 games.
Thanks to the 136 people who voted throughout the year.
We averaged just under 40 voters per round.Comment

I think the top four is a pretty accurate indication of the seasons that those four players had.
Congratulations Goodesy, let's hope you can make it 3 tonight too.Does God believe in Atheists?Comment

I love you Adam Goodes.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

Congratulations Adam, hope it augurs well for tonight.
And thank you and congratulations to Scott - a great piece of work, and very much appreciated.He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)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.

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.
