In memory of my little Staffy - Dicey, 17.06.2005 to 1.12.2011- I'll miss you mate. -
Saw him play for the first time last night, the first thing I thought when watching him was Paul Williams.
If he turns out some where between Kelly and Williams he will be a great pickup.
Cheers

I reckon the kid will do well and he is ready for a season of AFL. He may be a little wet yet but he will be ok in the end.Comment

12 months, but he will make a player I feelComment

Harry will have little or no impact this year - he has looked promising but unless we have a stack of injuries I see plenty of others in front of him at this stage. If he was a Kelly/Williams combo clone we'd all be excited right now but I think those sorts of comparisons are taking it a tad too far for a first year rookie....Comment

Jono I don't agree. This young bloke has kicked 5 goals in the NAB Cup campaign and he may even kick a few more against GCS. I was also impressed by his delivery and coolness under pressure. That give from the boundary to I think it was Bolts for a goal was superb and showed a cool head. He has been trained by Kells at the Riverina Academy so that is probably why he has a few of the great one's traits. He tackles and chases too. The kid is not far off and I think he will get a first up against GWS with all our injuries.Comment

He is the ideal player to have as a sub. Quick legs and can kick a goal, at a pinch can play in the midfield if you have an injury early
I think he is a chance to get the sub gig. I am still hoping we can use the two sub rule in the regular seasonYou don't ban those who supported your opponent, you make them wallow in their loserdom by covering your victory! You sit them in the front row. You give them a hat! Toby ZieglerComment

Your pro the 2 and 2 rule?Comment

Why would you want two subs Reggi? There is still the one sub rule and he would fit. I hope the amoebas in at AFL Headquarters don't go for the Two Sub Rule, I already hate the One Sub Rule and so do about 90% of all footy supporters. The polls in all the major papers are very anti even the One Sub Rule.Comment

how was his video on the swans site !!!
ha.....yeah its just like playing normal footy - ha !
the kid is confident
the kid is a goer
the kid reads the game well in attack and is effective !
he is ready I feel to be in the 22 - massive call I know but just like Parker you know that they are top 22 players for a long time !"be tough, only when it gets tough"

I agree Aunty Gerald this one is a natural but a natural with some excellent training by the great man himself, Paul Kelly. He is confident, steady or cool in a crisis, a great kick, confident, good tackle, fast and dedicated. What more could you want and yes he is another like Lukie Parker that are going to be around a long time. By the way any money on Parker for a Brownlow within five years?Comment
-
Do you reckon guys like Nipper go into their shell a little when they see kids like Richie come along or do you think it spurs them on to train harder? Richie already looks like he's jumped ahead of Nipper.

I am already on it.
One thing re Harry that HAS to be taken into consideration is that he is 18. He will not have the stamina for running out a full senior AFL game at this stage, even Luke didn't (he thought he did, but...) nor Gary, nor most of the other really young ones. Sam slowed down by the end of the season and that was after a year in the ressies. AJ too. You just can't throw the kids in and expect instant coffee! It will take time.
Guess we will just have to wait and see what the trainers and coaches do. Its not like he Can't play, its now just for how much ground time, and what they want from him at this stage; its not like if he isn't played in the first five games he's going to pack his bags and go somewhere else.If you've never jumped from one couch to the other to save yourself from lava then you didn't have a childhoodComment

A bit of a jet our little Harry is.
I think he is incredibly endearing and no doubt if he keeps up his performance he will become another cult hero. Hopefully he is elevated and we get to see him make his debut some time during the season.

- 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.

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.
