Thankyou Joey. His performance in finals have been particularly outstanding. He is excellent both on field and off field. Not sure of his retirement plan. I think he is very settled in Sydney and may not rush back to Melbourne. He will be a very good Development Coach for our young talents if he wants to.

I've only just twigged that he's not giving it away immediately. He's still going to see if he can get back to play before the end of the season.Comment

Probably my favourite finals performance of his, was in a 2010 final against a star studded Carlton. We got out to a handy lead at half time, due in part to goals from lesser lights, like Paul Bevan and Trent Dennis-Lane. In the third, Judd went berserk and they got the lead back. However, in the last, a young Joey just monstered their midfield and we ground out a thrilling victory.Comment

Do you think it's likely? I do love it that he's giving it a crack though. One of our very best recruits - seeing the photo of him flanked by Matter and Morton with the 2012 Cup, reminded me of how important our trades used to be. Much less so these days.
An extraordinary warrior, his 2016 GF performance should have had a premiership medal to go with it.Comment

From Ana’s dancing post on Instagram I reckon she’s pretty happy about today’s announcement [emoji3]. Sad for us though, how lucky we have been.
Also photos of Josh coaching young Emilio on Ana’s account, wow the next Kennedy generation is looking good! F/S of the future?Comment

One of the all time greats of the club . Just stepped up time and time again in the big moments in big games .
Hard to watch him telling the players without getting a bit teary myself . Even Horse got teary , shows how highly regarded he was in the inner walls of the swans . I don’t throw these words around lightly but he was is a true champion player and a humble one at that

Great call. Judd was going to win that match on his own, and despite Joey having won a bucket of his own ball, went to Judd and subdued him as well as win more of his own. Just extraordinary.
Just watched him on AFL360 and so impressive. Robbo rightly raved about what a truly great player he was and rightly so.'Delicious' is a fun word to sayComment

Remember that game very well - he was enormous in that last quarter. A real coming of age moment for him.
His 2016 grand final effort was one of the all time great performances in a beaten team. Should have won the Norm Smith for mine that day, as he was enormous is trying to drag us against the odds over the lines.
But there were so many immense finals moments in his career - look up definition of 'big game player' and his picture is right there.
Well done JPK on an absolute amazing career - and you never, never know. Could there be one last twist to come (given he has not retired immediately). Seems very unlikely, but footy gods do some funny things sometimes!"You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."Comment

What a superb game that was, with an exciting finish. A sunny Sunday afternoon and one of the better games for atmosphere at ANZ. The TDL chase-down, tackle and goal!
I was up quite high with the cheers and roars floating up. Judd looked pretty crushed at the end as I recall.Comment

Ben so blessed to have had Joey at the club for so long as a magnificent player, role model, captain and great bloke.
There’s never been a hint of swagger or braggadocio about him, he just kept playing with incredible grit and will to win mentality.
Be greatly missed .
Thanks Josh.Comment

Bloods legend who will be immortalised in the history of our club and deservedly so.Comment

The video of him telling his teammates says it all. JPK very emotional about leaving and John Longmire very emotional in his response.
A true Bloods legend.
Thanks for everything JPK!Comment

When the Swans were at their best, I would say the 5 years from 2012-2016. Josh was our best player. I can't imagine us being the competitive team we were without him. He empitomised everything it was to be a Sydney Swan. When we speak about the Bloods culture, it is Josh Kennedy who I think about.Comment

Have to take your word for it on 2016, as even though I've tried to watch the game on replay a few times, I've never got past about half way through the third quarter. But I'm sure he put in a big effort.
And I think effort is the appropriate word for his game style. Always going in hard, always making a contest, never giving up. And generally having a persona, where actions speak louder than words.Comment

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.

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.
