Empire RecordsMark: Hey, Lucas. I’ve decided I’m going to start a band.
Lucas: The first thing you need is a name. Then you’ll know what kind of band you’ve got.
Mark: Right, right. I was thinking about, um, Marc. How does that sound?
Lucas: Is that with a C or with a K?
Mark: Well my name is with a K, so I was thinking my band’s name could be with a C. That way it’s kind of that psychedelic, you know, trip thing.
Lucas: Always play with their minds."Fortunately, this is the internet, so knowing nothing is no obstacle to having an opinion!." Beerman 18-07-2017Comment

While I absolutely expect Hickey to do very well for us in the time he has at the Swans.
He also gives us time to chase an additional ruckman in the 24-26 year old age group from another club in the next 2 years . . . . one that will be at his peak by the time the cygnets hit their straps.Comment

There was this section in the trivia article about the draftees that really caught my eye:
Logan is already my favourite player. Give Matt Ling #37 and put Logan in the #19 jumper.Logan McDonald ........ went to the same Perth primary school as Tom Derickx, who was taught by Logan’s father Tommy. Derickx, who played 13 games for the Swans in 2014-15, is 15 years older than McDonald.
The connection can't be simply chance. It\s like a miracle. Some might go so far as to say a resurrection.
The mark of the T-Rex is stamped all over this kid. He's going to be the most elitist of the elite. How could he miss?Comment

We'll put. Just seemed that a lot of us thought we'd go for paddy McCartin and a project ruckman or forward. Makes the most sense given our list. I don't think anyone would of picked these two players but we aren't draft experts. Happy to eat my words but I am slightly sceptical.Comment

I'm happy with the rookie picks we made.
Sheather has been one of the better academy players. Like Wicks, he was one of several players who could have been given a chance with a Cat B selection. The list management know most about the academy players, so it's hard to challenge the wisdom of their selection.
That last rookie spot (leaving one open for in season drafts), is when you try to get a player with a lot of upside, recogmising that the failure rate will be high. It's really what the rookie draft was designed for.
It's worth the wait to see how Naismith goes with his recovery before taking another ruckman on the list. We can also see which undrafted ruckmen do well in the coming season and perhaps pick one up in the mid season draft.
I think McDonald's selection sealed the fate of Paddy McCartin, but maybe he will be asked to train with the team, and will be considered for a preseason selection.
If Joel Amartey could step up and play to his potential, a McDonald-Amartey key forward combo could be lethal.Comment

Yep. Reflecting on his draft night interview after hearing today’s one, he’s just a pretty relaxed young man by the sounds of it. I’m not sure we would have seen much more emotion out of him if he had been picked up by the Crows ( which he mentioned prior to draft he’d be keen to play for) or a WA club. Look forward to seeing him in the red and white. Exciting year ahead for the swans faithful

Really like that all the draftees are noted for their foot skills, the game can be played so much better when you have long and accurate kicks in the side.
Campbell is THE best kick in this draft, Gulden rated very highly by foot as well and McDonald is a long accurate kick, handy for a FF :-)Comment

This kid's a well kept secret. Can play!

Just watched Logan's presser.
Impressive young man. He would've interviewed well and along with his obvious talent, can see why we took him.
It's great that he is mates with Warner and he's rooming with Dyl and Tommy Mc so there's a really strong foundation for him to settle quickly. The one magic ingredient to minimise his go home factor will be success on the field. He needs to belief he can win a flag with us. This applies to all our promising youngsters.Comment

- 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.

Breaches of this rule carry the highest infraction points and may result in permanent bans on a first offence.

While threads will sometimes move away from the original topic, do not deliberately drag a thread away from its original subject.
11) Attachments
