Thought Parker was our best tonight, but most of the midfield was good: Mills, Kennedy, Warner, Florent, with another great effort by Hickey in the ruck. McInerney had some excellent passages of play. As did Gulden. Reid took some telling marks. Good to see Buddy again. Shame about Heeney: hope the break's not too bad. (Longmire just mentioned 3-4 weeks)

Brilliant game by Reid. I don't think we win without him.

Top game from Florent. Made a positive contribution with every touch.Comment

Campbell had some decent flashes - you felt confident when he took clean possession.
Gulden was great in the first half, so smart. Obviously could have kicked better for goal.
I think Logan made a good contribution in the the last. Some desperate plays and rucked.
Nine day break - they'll be right.Comment

I thought Gulden's last quarter was pretty good. Hard at it, put himself in the game. Sprayed a couple of shots but won the footy to get to that spot. I mentioned during the week that the dewy ground starts this week and it looked like it blunted our disposal. Plenty of room for improvement. Boy is Heeney unlucky with injuries.Comment

Love Harry shrugging off a strong tackle with 50 seconds to go!

Phew! Made it!
Now give practice time for KICKING!
The hard work was there but we weren't cutting up the Bombers as we did with the others we've played. And there is no substitute for practicing. We'll be OK for the Giants.He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)Comment

It was a hard game to analyze. The moist conditions had some impact, but who can say how much? It's easy to say that if we had kicked straight for goal ,we could have run away with the game. True, but we didn't kick straight.
Errol came back to earth. He did a lot of good things, but his kicking was way off and he made some poor decisions in the last minutes of the game, when it more important to keep the ball in our forward end of the ground than trying to kick a winning goal. Same goes for Blakey, who should know better in his 3rd year.
Hewett didn't look too good on tv. Maybe those at the game can contribute something one way or the other.
McCartin also had his worst game of the season. He looked a bit ordinary at times. Maybe he lost fis footing in the wet conditions.
Something I've noticed with the centre bounces is that we are winning the clearances, but when the opposition win the ball, they often break away for a clean kick to their forward line. We don't seem to have a method of how to handle the lost clearances so we don't leak too many points that way.Last edited by Ludwig; 8 April 2021, 11:10 PM.Comment

Bell was shocking and shouldn’t play again. Frustrating that he was a sub ahead of Stephens or Hayward.
Reid, Parker, Rampe, Hickey, JMac all superb.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.
