      Well fingers crossed for good weather vs the Wobbles and a crowd of 65k+ isn't out of the question

        I heard on Triple M, in Sydney, that 60,000 tickets had already been sold.

        That'll show that retired W...er, Sam Newman, who scoffed at the thought that there would be a big crowd at TS. His comments were made on Triple M, in Melbourne.

        Go the mighty Swannies......bury those Eddiewoods into the ground......

            Has that guy even BEEN to Sydney?

            He's probably too scared because of the fame vacuum he would produce.

            "Sam who?"

              Realistically you'd think we should be too quick and too skilful for Collingwood. That said we shouldn't take them lightly.

              Will be interesting - but there lack of skill should make it too hard for them to beat us.

                70,000 crowd and playing potentially for 2nd spot. It will be a huge game. Can't wait to shut Eddie up once and for all.

                I'm on the Chandwagon!!!

                If you cannot compete for the premiership, it's better to be young and exciting than middle-aged and dowdy.

                  Sam is a strange man. On the footy show last year he was upset that Australia was hoping to stage the soccer world cup. He said it would spoil australian rules people and turn them into soccer supporters.

                  I love all sports and I hate that attitude.

                  We should support all footy soccer rugby league and union. And all Australian teams.

                  Sam is stuffed in the head.

                    Did anyone else see that kid on the current affairs show.

                    He's about 13, and a Port fan. He quoted all Sam's statistics to him (ie Sam) incluing the number of gtimes he been married, how many girlfriends he's had (24 !!!! - loves long term relationships does Sam) . then the best line "you've got 3 children that we know of )


                    Can we get the kid to do Eddie next

                      The idea that Collingwood lacks skill is a complete myth.

                        I think the Magpies can be a bit like us in this department, with confidence the skill levels go up a notch or two, go off the boil and they drop.

                        The real myth is that Collingwood are a slow side IMO. Watching Shaw carve up Adelaide last weekend should have dispelled that one I would've thought.

                          Who are the skilled players in the Goodes O'Loughlin Schneider Williams Davis Hall Kennelly Class.

                          and how can we forget Licuria, Mcgoof (one of the greatest spastics of all time), Cloke, Johnson et al.

                          Collingwood are nought a skilful side
