I remember that I had trouble with tables in the past. Can't really recall why? But the last few times that I posted tables, I took a screen shot of the table, saved the screen shot and then used the 'add picture' button to post the table.
As you can possibly tell, my methods of solving computer glitches, are more like a pigeon in a Skinner box, rather than through any expertise.Comment

Way, way, waaaayyyyyyyy to early peeps.Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.Comment

When I started these, I wondered this too but wanted something to talk about during the off-season. These days I reckon: all the recruiters are already thinking about it and working on it and so why not us too? Perhaps a week too early. Next year I might give the new draftees time to arrive first.All opinions are not equal.

Confirmation of the pick situation: Who you should barrack against in 2020: Your club's future picks - AFL.com.au.
We have traded out our 3rd and 4th rounders and got Brisbane's 3rd and Adelaide's 4th rounders in their place. Hopefully we'll finish in front of the Crows this season, so that could be ok. And who knows how Brisbane will go in 2020. Can they repeat their success of 2019? I'm not sure. They'll certainly have a tougher draw, they benefited from a very nice draw in 2019 as well as a charmed run with injuries.All opinions are not equal.

Is the future of all academies under potential threat?
TWOMEY: Will the 2020 draft be the most compromised in history? - AFL.com.au
Some choice quotes:
"HERE'S the early warning: get ready to hear the word 'compromised' plenty of times next year."
"The naming last week of the under-17s NAB AFL All Stars sides for their Grand Final morning clash at the MCG gave an insight into why clubs are already wondering whether next year's group looks like being one of the most compromised in draft history.
Of the 48 players selected for the game, 17 are tied to AFL clubs around the competition as either potential father-sons, Next Generation Academy picks or northern Academy products."
.....and in conclusion:
"But the talking point about next year's draft will clearly start with how many players are already off-limits, rather than the open pool. It's also something that will be a factor in this year's Trade Period as clubs prepare to part with picks (and draft points) or bring more in."
In the long run I suppose it comes down to clubs being happy that they are getting enough benefit from this current set up or not.....ie: it's safe as long as Eddie is happy?

Here are the players the pundits reckon we should keep an eye on for next year's draft:
AFL Draft Chris Doerre top 20 prospects for 2020
2020 vision: Cal Twomey's 10 young guns to watch - AFL.com.au
Braeden Campbell features on both lists. Gulden makes it on to Doerre's longer list too.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)Comment

i think a very interesting stat to review is that Sydney the last 4 years have only had 4 x 1st round draft picks vs say GWS with 10 !!!!!!
we are 9th on the list of most 1st round draft picks last 4 years
I know there were many supporters on here very bullish on going hard at the Draft to solve our 15th on the ladder 2019 performance......... vs trading in accomplished / or serious emerging already pre seasoned players which is a serious challenge and not underestimated ie not being in Victoria
Instead we have regenerated our list we have gone Thurlow, Menzel, Clarke, Gray, Taylor, Brand etc via trading plus drafted talented youth McCartin, Blakey, Rowbottom, Gould, Stephens, Taylor etc
Determining whether we have given ourselves the best opportunity to compete again in the 2020 (like Hawthorn9th, Geelong1st and Collingwood4th have done on the run via significant trades) is still a lottery for me. KB has admitted as much that we dont know until 2/3 year from now if talented youth can become SNR dominant players
im not satisfied yet either way but i do like that we diversified the draft and trading again in 2019 albeit a key player traded in would have been gold
The ruck position still kills me and I have grave concerns of a similar experience to clearing the contest as 2019 which makes it so damn hard to control a game of footy
upside is that if our two guys in the first draft round or two next year are truly serious players then we will have a good batch competing hard and taking it to our young squad"be tough, only when it gets tough"

If we do pursue, and get, Joe Daniher at season's end, should we consider trading our Reid and rely on McCartin to replace him? This plan would ease the KPF congestion that getting JD might cause and give us some cap relief. Interesting that it never seemed part of the equation when we looking to acquire JD recently. Then again McCartin will have another season of development in him and be more ready to step up and fill the Reid shaped hole.All opinions are not equal.

It’s a big if. How long will Buddy have left by 2021? Sam Reid will be 30 in 2021, Sinkers will be 32. I don’t think we’ll be as overstocked with KPFs as you might thinkComment

Do not post your queries on the main boards. Such posts WILL be removed, without further explanation.

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.

Deliberately posting on threads in an attempt to stir / bait other RWO users will not be tolerated.

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.
