Sports Tonight update
On ST, they interviewed John Longmire who is currently in NZ helping the All Blacks prepare for a tournament.
He spoke about the great contribution that Bradshaw would add to the Swans.
The story closed by the anouncer saying that the Swans hope to announce the signing of Daniel Bradshaw tomorrow.
The wait continues......In memory of my little Staffy - Dicey, 17.06.2005 to 1.12.2011- I'll miss you mate.Comment

Interesting that they put it that way...Could mean nothing I'm sure but that could mean they are negotiating a contract, awaiting to see if the AFL can confirm that no other club can afford him in the PSD before us OR just waiting for the answer. I am getting impatient. hahaComment

Slightly off topic, but interesting nonetheless.
Helps pass the time I guess while we waaaaaait for the announcement.To all those people who waited 72 years to see a South Melbourne/Sydney Swans premiership HERE IT IS!!Comment

Pretty much a done deal, it probably took Bradshaw a little longer to make sure it was the right decision as he is from Victoria and moving a young family from Brisbane to Sydney and then again in three years time is a big decision.
But in the end, we had the cash, were interested in him the most and where our list is at probably suited him better with him being the big kahuna up forward for us at least for next year.

no doubt he will be great there, however there are few things that come to mind:
1. i have concerns that his body will hold up for 3 years.....
2. He was effective at the Lions as they delivered the ball very quickly into their forward 50...We tend NOT to.. so will that reduce his effectiveness.
3. White will have to run from CHF as due to number 1, he wont be able to push up the ground as much..Comment

I would have thought from a footballing perspective Carlton would suit him betterPretty much a done deal, it probably took Bradshaw a little longer to make sure it was the right decision as he is from Victoria and moving a young family from Brisbane to Sydney and then again in three years time is a big decision.

I hope you're the voice of truth today!

Heard on SEN this morning that Carlton have made/re-made a very healthy 3 year offer to him and that he is considering it. Acording to Brownless and Harford, he is going to Carlton, but then again, you'd be hard pressed to find 2 other individuals in the media here who are very pro Victoria/anti Sydney-interstate than those 2. Having said that, they also said that it doesn't matter what offer Carlton offers him as the swans have the higher pick in the pre season draft and could surely match any offer. The only way for him to go to Carlton is for him to nominate for the national draft, the swans using their low picks on 'yoof' and the blues to pick him prior to the swans pick 38.Comment

According to SEN (not the most reliable source) this morning, Kernahan and someone else from carlton flew to brisbane yesterday to throw one last ditch bid at getting bradshaw, with bradshaw's manager saying that he was 50-50 last night with presentations from both clubs very impressive. He is expected to announce his preferred destination this arvo some time, so more waiting im afraid!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
