Totally see what you mean about Squizzy, BF. But likely it's mostly just his body shape.
I also watched the interview with Dean Cox about his new role. I got the impression that he wasn't 100% thrilled about the change even though he said he "I think it's great!" He starts off saying he had been "moved" into a different role. Later he explains how a strength of the Swans is how they develop people (and I think he's referring to/including coaches) and how it is "challenging" (but in a good way). Finally, he talks up Macca being moved into the midfield coaching role. I got the impression that it wasn't his idea and may not have been his ideal but he's going to make the most of it and see how it works out. And I am happy with that.
I think it's good that the club is shaking things up a bit and challenging people and not settling for the same old. Hopefully the ideas are good. And, critically, they need to bring the players with them as they evolve.All opinions are not equal. Some are a very great deal more robust, sophisticated, and well supported in logic and argument than others. -Douglas Adams, author (11 Mar 1952-2001)

He’s a stocky small fella but gee whiz he looks a touch on the sloppy side in the video. Compare the video of him running around for Brisbane to him running laps at training. Look at the stomach , Definitely had a good off season! Almost got a double chin going!Comment

He had observed that people who did lie were, on the whole, more resourceful and ambitious and successful than people who did not lie.Comment

This is probably stating the obvious by the Hun, but still worth getting excited about.
Who is your club’s breakout star for 2020?

It was Nick Blakey’s moments of magic as much as the 19 goals and 82 score involvements in 21 games that thrilled Swans fans. This kid just wants the ball in his hands. In a 2019 superdraft, why can’t he emerge as the best of the lot? Big call but he has everything he needs.Comment

[QUOTE=Markwebbos;789380]Probably not a grudge, just his opinion.
His ranking of our defence was a total joke, though he is on the money with our rucks. Whether you like it or not, this is a total weak area for us.
I do love it then when looking at our forward line, not much credit given to Papley, yet when he was going to play for Carlton he was lauded as the next big thing.Comment

[QUOTE=Captain;789393]Defensively, we're pretty solid but can get overwhelmed by repeat entries, like any defence really.
Offensively, if we get enough opportunities, we will hurt the opposition for sure
As I've stated before, I'm not too concerned by not having a dominant ruckman, providing our midfield fires. As long as they put in and compete around the field. If our midfield gets owned, no amount of hitouts will save us.
Season 2020 will be determined by our midfield. If JPK can regain form, Parks has a cracking season and the youngsters all build on 2019, we might surprise a few pundits.
Over to our mids then for 2020! (And stuff you Goddard you bitter fool!)Comment

JPK is going to be 32 next year. I'm not sure he's going to get back to being able to win games for us like he used to. I wonder if he needs to spend less time in the middle and more time elsewhere - up forward, maybe, to give others a run in there.Comment

I think that is definitely what needs to happen, less time in the coal face for JPK, could be good for him also , similar to Joel Selwood for the cats moving more to a wing. At least early on in the season , that new midfield mid they were using worked really for them.

- 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.

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.
