Listening to the Swans huddle at quarter time, it was clear that the boys were being given clear instructions by the coaches on how to counter the Burgers' flooding of our forward line. Essentially, the message was to lower the eyes and don't bomb long to an outnumber situation and look for our spare players through the midfield and half back to run it down there. Great to hear the leadership of senior players like Taylor, Clark, Sinclair, Reid etc talking to and instructing the younger top-up players on what do/not to do.Comment

McLean seems down on stats, is he playing in defence? How is Will Gould going?Comment

Roberts is looking a steal at pick 34. AFL ready.
Amartey should be our backup ruck/forward in lieu of Ladhams. He moves around the ground very nicely and seems a more complete player. Of course, he will have to carry his form into the AFL, but as of now I can see McDonald and Amartey forward setup in the future.
Melican is playing very well. Gould is too. We might have a bit more depth down back than imagined. Fox also getting back in form and Sheather is again playing well in defence. BOC looks a bit shaky.
Warner playing left side wing. He improved since the start of the season. His disposal and decision making are sound. If he keeps this up,, I can see a bright future for the Warner boys.
As of now at halftime, I would look to bring in Campbell, Rowbottom, Ronke, Roberts and Amartey for JPK, JMac (rested), Bell, Wicks and Ladhams.Comment

Having watched our midfield get towled up last night by Cripps, Hewitt and Walsh etc it is pleasing to see a number of the mids in the reserves staking their claim for a call up today. Roberts, Taylor, Rankin, Clark, Stephens and Warner all showing something. Of those, Roberts, Taylor and Stephens the most likely to get a call up in my view.Comment

Its good to see the umps from last night have suited up again - frees 18 -5 lol
McAndrew has looked pretty good had more influence on the game than I have seen so far. Admittedly Coburg don't have many big blokes.
I'd like to see Stephens and Ronke have a big second half.Comment

Clearly our coaches are doing something wrong with our continual free kick discrepancies.Comment

It’s worth remembering that going into his draft year there were some draft watchers who rated him top 5. Then there seemed to be a focus on what he couldn’t do (not quick enough, not athletic, or whatever) rather than what he can do - which is to be a smart player who knows how to find the footy and win it at the contest.'Delicious' is a fun word to sayComment

Frees now 26 to 6. Every potential free they get. We have 1 free this quarter.Comment

26-6 free kick count. The umps are trying to give the game to Coberg.Comment
-
Taylor being tagged now in an effort to reduce his influence. I over-heard the assistant coach instructing Roberts on how to help Taylor beat the tag by blocking for him and bumping the tagger. Burgers are having a real go here.Comment

Frees now 28-9 if you don't mind umpire.
Fox was part of Amartey's goal with some gut busting run. I personally would like to see him back in the Seniors - dunno who would be dropped.

Hey Aprilbr - you are there correct? Did you think that kick from Coburg was OOF? Looked at least half a metre over to me - I am only watching the stream not at the gameComment

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.

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.

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 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.
