HEAD TO HEAD

LAST TIME: Ess 12.13 (85) d Syd 11.17 (83), round 9, 2002, at Telstra Stadium.
With a missed shot after the siren from Mott, Sydney recorded its third consecutive defeat after it had already given the game away with inaccurate kicking. Alessio, Mercuri and McVeigh were the standouts for the Bombers.

RECORD OVERALL: Syd 72, Ess 125, drawn 1

AT THIS GROUND: Syd 0, Ess 1

IN THE 00s: Syd 0, Ess 4

COACHES: Roos 0, Sheedy 0

BETTING: Syd $1.70, Ess $2.05.

TV: Channel Ten, 7pm

RADIO: 774 ABC

AT SELECTION: The Bombers regain Misiti, Peverill and Barnard for Alessio, McGrath and Davies. Cresswell and O'Loughlin return for the Swans at the expense of Stevens and Sundqvist.

WHO WILL WIN AND WHY: It has been six years since the Swans defeated Essendon and even though they will start favourites tomorrow night, the Bombers should edge them out. Just. Whoever does best of Lloyd and Hall could be the key.

PREDICTION: Essendon by six points.

I'm pretty sure the Mott shot was not after the siren. Moron indeed.

She's no bookmaker.

Almost as much as some of the morons on Bigfooty.

How many times does Chris_Judd have to be told how much of the salary cap the Swans are spending?

Tell me about it!

Blaming Ricky Mott for losing that game last year is becoming very tiresome. It was trotted out again on Fox Footy Teams last night.

What lost us the game was some dismal kicking for goal in the first half. The Swans should have been up by 20 points when Ricky was lining up.

[Sanecow]

We delisted him because of that kick you know.

Calling this guy a moron is a compliment masey - For the record Mott's shot was definately before the siren, infact we had another scoring chance after that.

[swan_song]

definitely well before the siren, and as far as I recall we scored afterwards anyway...but it seems to be a thing against the bombers, remember kell's kick into alesio (I think) on the mark the year before...

Was it the chance that Willo had on the run, but was put of his shot by the chasing Lucas?

Obviously from Melbourne. Showtime is 7:30pm here in Sydney

Those Victorians just don't understand football do they?? If we let them stay in the AFL long enough maybe they'll eventually learn!

It seems to be more or less a typo. 6, 26... not that hard to hit the wrong key.

The journalist is actually a young woman.
