...and suddenly the season is in doubt

According to the AFL report, the victory came at a cost with a shoulder injury to key big man Jason Ball. Ball sustained the blow early in the opening quarter and did not take any further part in the game. The full extent won?t be known until Monday. LRT was out of the selected side with a hamstring.

I'm hoping for rain in Adelaide next week!

Me too, the way they're currently trashing St Kilda, we stand no chance next week.

If we do lose next week, we'll probably drop from 2nd to 6th. What a bizarre season.

Goodes did great in the ruck today. It seemed like the other guy always jumped early and hardly ever touched the ball.

Actually, we sharked a lot of Simmonds's taps, especially Kirk.

NO WAY! If that happens it will end up like the Port game. I don't think our frames are physically big enough to go with a team like Adelaide in a quagmire. Speed and agility is our key. Bring on the fine weather. Besides, more likely to be playing in fine weather during the finals.

This is what I think. Remember back to the 1998 final against Adelaide and what they did to us in the wet. I rather it be dry so we can play our best style of football and if we lose, we go down fighting.

yes swans are hopeless ducklings in the wet. I hope it will be fine weather however it could be good practice if we have to play wet in the finals
