I had to add this link...made me laugh, and I felt a little bit of wee come out too.
Battle of the West Won @ Penrith Panthers
Geez this lot are threatened by our sport aren't they? And how can roughly 1500 more fans in their heartland be a victory?Comment

What you say is true , but the commentary left a lot to be desired .
Walls did his usual thing of stating the obvious ad nauseum .
would be nice if they had continued mentioning all the players names .
Good to win a game where there's a lot of room for improvement but also a lot of new excitement .
.give it to the gameComment

Right next to the stairs, that was us. I was there in the red Sherrin guernsey. Due to a course of anti-biotics, I was unable to drink, so my Pies loving brother took up my slack with due aplomb. I love ripping into umpires, its a sport unto itself. Was particularly happy with my mental breakdown of the "more mature" boundary hack, his shorts left little to the imagination. And also bagging out LRT, not his greatest fan!
But feel we introduced a generation of new fans to the boundary throw in "hooooo". Would've loved to get a wave all the way around, but alas, members are wankers.Comment

As someone said on here a few posts back, there was ample room left over, could've squeezed in another 2 or so thousand. If they want to make GWS work, they must play all games there when they enter the AFL, better playing to 6 0r 7 thousand there than at Homebush. I think the local people will be receptive to it, I'm one, and know of plenty more that are as well. Will be lining up for membership when they become available.
Would've been ideal as promotion to see the TAC Cup team play a trial or even a training run before the game I thought.Comment

Enjoy the vision
I cannot believe people are defending them, Lane in particular. I have watched it twice, when Sydney are in possession Lane does not even bother to commentate, he babbles on about whatever, bet he does not even know half our players. As soon as Carlton are in possesion he starts commentating again. Just appaling as usual
O'Dwyer had a good game barely rated a mention, but was amongst the better players on the ground
When are channel 10 going to stop using this clown?

What makes the quote so absurd, the journo actually ADMITS in the very same paragraph that the AFL crowd was capped at 10,000.
Sitting all the hill area, (like the majority of the spectators) was comfortably spacious. There is no doubt that an extra 2,000 could easily be accommodated.
If sports journos tied up to a particular football code are going to make such overtly partisan comments, they should say it with credibility and with a constructive based argument. I have never heard of this bloke, but his sense of logic makes him sound like a complete idiot, with no credibillity whatsoever.
And for the record, the NRL fans of Parramatta and Penrith would have travelled on mass a considerablly shorter distance that the many of AFL fans of Sydney and Carlton.Comment

What about the free tickets given out by the AFL?
Not to be criticising one sport against another, but a trial match in the league with nothing at stake vs a pre-season cup game where there is something to play for.
Combine all that and it was decent crowd for a league game.Premiers 09,18,33,05

Its funny when you see the stats.
Malceski and Bird I thought were involved alot in the game but struggled to make a lot of pleasimg to the eye football........which doesnt al ways win matches !!
I actually thought Bolton and Kirk would have been miles ahead of Bird in posession just from watching the game........no wonder coaches watch replays !
it was a very heavily contested ball game.........maybe the pitch is quite narrow as well which squeezed the traffic..
Jack I thought had an off game - just didnt click - but there wasnt many targets in the fowardsLast edited by Auntie.Gerald; 21 February 2010, 01:55 PM."be tough, only when it gets tough"

- If this is your first visit, be sure to check out the FAQ by clicking the link above. You may have to register before you can post: click the register link above to proceed. To start viewing messages, select the forum that you want to visit from the selection below.
- 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
Any decisions made around the intepretation of the rules above are entirely at the discretion of the site administrators. Such decisions are final.

b) If they are abusive, report them. We will consider banning them. Don't stoop to their level.Bottom line
You are a guest on RWO - You are expected to play by the rules of the house.

I didn't have any problem with the commentary. They were very critical of Carlton and mostly positive about the Swans.
