If he stays away this time, he will be seen as soft and will open himself up to worse abuse when he eventually gets across there??
Better to play his first game back in Adelaide against Port rather than the Crows. Get on with it.....Looking out for good omens which can bring the Swans the 2007 premiership
My kids had chicken pox and they were all red and white, that's one

Now seems certain that Tippett will play against Port in Adelaide after the bye. Would be nice to see lots of red and white there to support him and all the Swannies particularly it there are some hostile elements in the crowd towards Kurt. I was delighted to find that Ticketmaster, which is the online ticket seller for this match, has updated their software so you can now choose your own seats. I was able to get one in same row as my Port-supporting sister who lives in Adelaide. Hmmm, may be that wasn't very smart as I will be surrounded by Port supporters!Comment

Can't wait - will definitely be there in plenty of red and white!! Hoping for a repeat performance of this week.Superman still wears Brett Kirk PyjamasComment

With the strong marking & 200cm+ frame, half a season played on the confines of the SCG, newfound inside 50 precision passing from our midfield ... can Kurt Tippett become our next Coleman Medalist &/or 100 goals in a season full forward in 2014?Comment

I wonder if the crows supporters realise that by turning up to a home game for Port, they are helping their arch rivals gets a decent crowd and some money??
Who do they hate the most, Tippett or Port?
Should be interesting to see what the crowd colours are on Saturday night!doof-doof

From months to weeks and now only days away until Kurt makes his much anticipated debut. The wait will be worth it and we all now need to embrace him into the club. Forget whatever any other team supporters think of him as it will not only be Crows fans that will be livid when he starts to perform in his new colours of Red and White. Hope he kicks at least 5 but if he doesn't others will and he will have played his team role.Comment

I'm pretty sure even AnnieH is getting excited?Comment

Someone on Bigfooty said the crows are like an unhinged ex girl friend that Tippett can't get rid of.Comment

Tippett's debut suddenly looks a lot harder given the corpse of Poor Power after five losses in a row has risen off the slab and started dancing again! I think we may prove a tougher opponent than GWS was today.
Only hope GWS are as insipid againt us in a few weeks as they were against the Power today.
Oh, and Tippett to debut with an accurate half dozen :-)Comment

One of my real concerns with how well we are playing is that many of us start to believe that the team is infallible and that all we need to do to win is turn up. John Longmire has a real job on his hands:
1) to convince the players that the reason they are favourited to win is because of the way we are playing and not because we are so good
2) to maintain the desire that they showed last week against opposition we all know we should beat.
Now we as supporters do not have a coach/coaches or a strong leadership team to keep our mind focused and free from complacency so occasionally we start to believe that there are only 2 or 3 teams that are left in the race for the flag.
Port Adelaide may not be a favoured team but may I remind you they just beat a team we could only beat by 32 pts by 75 pts.
They will be playing before a rabid crowd full of supporters from both Adelaide teams one to support port the rest to boo Tippett.Comment

If the players need a reason to give their all, stick this to their bloody lockers. This guy is going hell for leather to get back there!

- 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.
