Seriously, I will be shocked and bewildered if any of the following happens:
1. We play Brandon Jack against a team that seeks to be one part footballer, 3 parts bully in a preliminary final;
2. There is the utterly ridiculous event that someone who has never played AFL level football in their life gets picked to run against the most pressure-hardcore outfit in the AFL in a preliminary final on the other side of the continent.
3. We play Armstrong, who is currently not good enough to play for the Sydney Swans and is a liability."Take me down to the Paradise City where the grass is green and the Swans win pretty."Comment

Leon Cameron on AFL 360 said the Swans midfield were the only ones that could take on the Dockers midfield.
Bomber said that Geelong always played worse after the week off.
It should be a very exciting an unprodictable two games.
Geelong won last 11 against Hawks.
Will Dockers get nervous after a week off?
That probably means Hawks-Dockers GF.Nothing like a good light bulb moment.Comment

1. I've thought the same. Not exactly an imposing presence, but I'd love to see Jesse White standing over whoever bullied him like he did for Lamb. Also hard to bully someone when they've left you 20m in their wake.
2. Totally agree. Stranger things have happened though. Sometimes turns out well. Sometimes doesn't. I'd trust the coaching staff if they went down that path. I'd assume it was underpinned by a particular strategy.
3. I'm afraid I agree. It's a shame because he shows some serious skills sometimes, but is far too much of a risk.Comment

Though it is hard to judge watching guys playing 2nd grade football, but after watching the reserves grand final, but I thought towers and Lamb look like they really know how to play this game, even more so than BOG Armstrong. Who I thought got some easy possessions. I do know one thing though, that Biggs can play! he will be a really valuable player in years to come. Surprised no one on theses forums gave him a plug after Saturday Night's Effort.Comment

LRT in
we need LRT this week his experience in big games and his ability to hold down a key position at full forward or full back will be a must this week.

Freo has had a rest. Hope that this works against them as nerves will be a big part.
Swans are a side that most would prefer not to play when our backs are to the wall..
I believe that our best is good enough and we can only hope that we play to our best. (Hawks to have a big battle against the cats and have no legs for the week after!)
We need our best fittest 22 on the ground Lamb for Mitchell and LRT for Tippett would be my guess and feel that BJ, Towers or Membrey may have a chance..

LRT is not ready to slot in to the seniors as yet! I would go with Mike Pyke, Jesse White and some speedy runners in the forward line!
If the Swans beat Fremantle, and have to face off against Hawthorne in the GF, I would play LRT to play against the dangerous David Hail.
LRT needs one extra run in the reserves GF, then his ready!Comment

Michael has borrowed Harry Potter's invisible coat so we should be OK.

- 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.
