Spangher gets a call up

[Primmy]

OK, so how many of us ressie watchers are feeling justifiably smug at present?
We called for Spank to be included in the seniors, as a forward, and it looks like we are right on the money. Smug and Superior all at once!

[On-Baller]

Yeah great call by the RWO masses.I guess it was now or never for him and i hope he kicks a bag.

[Big Al]

Yes Primms, pretty smug at present although if he doesn't play well I'll be logging on here with a different name.

[Bas]

I keep hearing the Bee Gee's - Jive Talking playing in my head.

Let's hope he get's Saturday Night Fever !!!!!!

[Big Al]

We've sprung the sprang now it's time to powerade Kenny...

[stellation]

You'd assume he must be training the house down. Good luck to him, excited for him to get a run!

[Nich]

Alright Spangher - here's your chance Son - you know what to do so GET IT DONE

[Bexl]

from what Ive read from the ressie watchers he rucked a bit last week. I hope he plays just at FF to try and settle a forward line (with TDL to come in soon I hope). Grundy plays back and LRT is the back up ruck.

[swansprincess]

Bevan shouldn't have been dropped though, he was one of the few good players last week IMO.

[Cardinal]

Bevan did a few stuff ups if I recall.

So should Spangher go into the fantasy this week or should I hold off that is the question.

[Bas]

So should Spangher go into the fantasy this week or should I hold off that is the question.

Have him wearing a satin shirt undone to the waist and the gold medallion and that should do the trick.

With the Spang breaking into the seniors side this weekend, I'm pretty excited so decided to sign-up to RWO. More importantly after watching his jive walking down the boundary at Blacktown I've had this in my head for weeks just waiting for an opportunity to post and realised I wasn't the only one.

He's got a strut worthy of Tony Manero or Vinny Barbarino and a profile that really should appear on the yet to be minted Swans Commemorative Coin for the Premiership winners of 2013.

So, to the music of Stayin' Alive from Saturday Night Fever, here is a RWO tribute to Spangher on his debut for the Red and White


Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk,
I?m a forward man, back line?s for dorks.
Fans are loud, the weathers warm.
I been kicking it around since I was born.
Now it?s all right, it?s O.K.
I?ve made it East from the other way.
Now you can try to understand
The Spang?s hold on ?Powerade Woman?!

If you?re a blood brother
and going for a smother
The Spang has arrived in the forward line
Feel opponents breaking
And now they?re really shaking
I don?t kick behinds, it?s all fine.

Ah, ha, ha,ha
Spang is alive
Spang is alive
Ah ha ha ha
Spang is a-li..hi?ai ai ai iiive iiiive
Woo

I can catch it low I can catch it high
When I take a mark I make defenders cry
Got the wings of Capper on my shoes
I'm a markin' man and I just can't lose.
Now it?s all right, it?s match day
We are bloods right in the fray
Our forward line is fully manned
The Spang is in total command

Whether you?re another
Red and white lover
Watch me strut across the interchange line.
Horse gives me my instructions
To start my destruction
And you know it?s time to show their back line

Ah, ha, ha,ha
Spang is alive
Spang is alive
Ah ha ha ha
Spang is a-li..hi?ai ai ai iiive iiiive
Woo

Look to the goal square.
I'm running free there.
Spang's here and kickin', yeah.
They'll say it ain't fair
I got such great hair yeah
Spang is alive

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk,
I'm a forward man, no need to talk
The blokes all love my marking style
And ladies love my great big?.smile
And now it's all right, it's O.K.
You can relax Spang?s on the way
You can try to understand
The genius of a strutting man.

Now that I?m another
Red and white blood brother
I gotta stay inside, the interchange line.
The defence is quaking
Coz I?m giving them a baking
I?m in the forward line, I kick no behinds

Ah, ha, ha,ha
Spang is alive
Spang is alive
Ah ha ha ha
Spang is a-li..hi?ai ai ai iiive iiiive
Woo

Clog up the goal square
I?ll still get free there
Spang?s here to thrill you, yeah.
Thay?ll say it ain?t fair
Spang?s here and winning, yeah
The Spang is alive.

My hips swing free, yeah.
Girls look at me, yeah.
Spang's here to thrill you, yeah.
Kirky will say it ain?t fair
My hair is better yeah
Spang is alive

Ah, ha, ha,ha
Spang is alive
Spang is alive
Ah ha ha ha
Spang is a-li..hi?ai ai ai iiive iiiive
Woo

Very impressive debut there, Lieph

[ScottH]

Very impressive debut there, Lieph

Best first post ever!!!

Very impressive, mate!!

If Spangher takes advantage of the opportunities I expect him to have I might have to make another banner. I had grief with the Schneider and Playfair ones but Spangher might beat the odds and be a keeper.
