I gave up on the commentary in the first quarter as they were not calling the game, just fluffing around like old tarts, and switched on Snapper and Luffy instead; call was about 2 seconds faster than vision, but that was just fine. Luffy was not pleased with Hanners.......apparently his kicking is 50%, but I could see all these little dart hand balls, and thought "that will do me"..... nice call in comparison with the tv though.
We won, we won, we won, we won.....we won. we won....If you've never jumped from one couch to the other to save yourself from lava then you didn't have a childhoodComment

Sorry Liz, but.... What??? Please tell me you were listening to radio. Did you miss the part where one of the commentators actually sang part of the efin Fremantle song????? It was like having an opposition fan sitting behind me at a game.Last edited by Kirkari; 14 August 2010, 08:02 PM.Superman still wears Brett Kirk PyjamasComment

Fabulous win by the team- our gutsiest of the season. Hanners is an absolute gun (Kicking though does need work) and Mummy the trade of the season. What an effort to go over there and get the 4 points. We are doing everything we can to get a home final, and I think whatever happens from now on itll be hard to be disappointed with the season overall, as its clear we are making very decent steps towards marching back up the ladder!"You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."Comment

I have partially recovered after a visit from Dr D Murphy. I haven't felt that stressed during a game for a few years now. Even the Hawthorn loss earlier in the year wasn't an issue. The importance of a win today was huge. As my son said, we beat Hawks and now Freo, beating teams that beat us earlier in the year. That also covers losses to Tigers and Demons now.
I thought Hannebury had a bad game until I saw the amount of football he got. On TV everytime he touched the ball seemed to result in a clanger.
I thought we lost the game after being up 10 points and that forward movement broke down and they rebounded with 2 goals. I went upstairs with 2 minutes to go because I couldn't watch and it was my son yelling that the Swans scored that brought me back to the game. I HATE GAMES LIKE THAT!!!!!!! Only if we lose but you don't know at the time.
Jesse dropped the marks but he did do quite alot to set up other goals and 2nd efforts. Jetta's 2nd goal was better than the first.
O'Keefe made up at the end but what happened today. Was he tagging? Man flu?
The run down to the finals:
Freo: Hawks in Tassie; Carlton at Subi.
Carlton: Geelong at ES; Freo at Subi.
Hawks: Demons; Freo in Tassie; Collingwood.
Norf: St Kilda; West Coast at Subi; Melbourne.
So looking at what is to come, we are a good chance to get a home final. If we only can beat the Dogs............... Best win of the year today.Last edited by Bas; 14 August 2010, 08:47 PM.In memory of my little Staffy - Dicey, 17.06.2005 to 1.12.2011- I'll miss you mate.Comment

That team today reminded me of 2004. We know what came next

What a surreal afternoon. After about 10 minutes at the start where no-one was scoring as we blanketed them but didn't know how to get it to a forward I gave up on the TV commentary. It was atrocious - I was trying to remember when Jacovich played for the Dockers - or was it just a WA secessionist call? So I switched on 2MMM. Luffy and the boys are like soothsayers - every movement they predicted came true about 10 seconds later. Made the whole game quite relaxing I thought but my partner decided she couldn't cope with the tension and went for a looong walk. Came back with 10 minutes to go and couldn't work out who the maniac in front of the TV was. A joyous sense of relief when Jesse came good, then the boys iced the clock and ROK iced the cake.
Happy, happy day. Looking at the Doggies scoreline right now it looks like they might be joining us in the not-bad-teams-who-won't-win-the-grand-final stakes. It could be a more exciting game at the SCG than I expected. We will miss Ben McG if he's out though - what a terrier. I thought Kennedy should also be in the list of good pick ups today. Not flashy but doing his bit. Mummy and Ben are great and Hanners and Jack look set to become elite. Before he retires Goodes has to learn how to break a tag. Judd and Ablett can so he should be able to too.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.
