QF 1: Sydney Swans v GWS Match Thread

What are you on about lol. A swear function has been in place on RWO since Bob Pratt was a boy.

And what precisely, in the english language at least, makes a word 'girly' vs another word.....

yeah i should have/could have used a different word. superstar is a hollywood word to me. what a player> superstar ?

[redstarforever]

WTF is this post? I just don't get it....it's like your picking a fight that isn't there. We won one of the great finals, why the hostility?

? i should have held back and not get bothered that word cant stand only because all afl commentators on tv irritate me when they constantly say it. superstar this superstar that sounds too much of a celebrity word. ‘he is a freak!’ ‘what a player’ anything actually other than superstar

Can't talk as men anymore? This is not a male only forum, there are plenty of female, and I assume some non-binary members here.

ohh well apologies. i didnt take that into consideration

Brilliant montage of Saturday afternoon's game at the SCG.

I really like the use not Tori Amos’ version of “Smells Like Teen Spirit” which changes into Nirvana when the final siren sounds. Loved the washed out colours at the start too.

Just read an article in The Age (which i won't post due to past issues) whereby Papley revealed in a podcast he was involved in a car accident on the way to the game last Saturday!

It occurred on ANZAC parade. He rear ended a guy in front of him who slammrd on his brakes in attempting to make an illegal left turn. Both Papley & the driver were ok, who was good about it, but didn't recognise Papley despite being in his full Swans kit. Passers-bys did tooting him!

Papley kept it quiet when he arrived at the SCG fearing Longmire would go off at him. But word eventually filtered through & club checked he was ok.

Papley also revealed he was incredibly nervous about his ankle in the week leading up to the game & sought assistance of club physcologist which helped.

It .reminded me of Bob Pratt being hit by a truck when alighting from a tram the day before the 1935 GF.

Possibly true. But they might say "you lot". (Crazy that, except in parts of Ireland and England, the plural form of the second person was discarded.)

reading your posts from start until the end i must say horse copped handful negativity and criticism and countless 'wtf are we doing.. cant we play anymore!' basically almost gutted completely and the feel we were highly likely gonna lose and then on the comeback a vintage comment "Never In Doubt"

[stevoswan]

Saw both these today.....both great, especially the second one.
