      Hopefully he gets into the goal kicking practice and bags a couple to top it off this weekend.

        Anniswan and Destructive are two who are potent with their ability to put the opposition players off their game. Which would be better - seating Anniswan with Destructive to magnify the effect, or space them apart to get better coverage?

          I seem to remember C.Bolt doing well on him for a game or two.

            Richmond should be a tough game but who knows....it was only 5 weeks ago they got flogged by 115 points and that tells me they are very vunerable and definately not a top team. On the other hand they have won their last 3 so they will be very confident but it depends on which richmond turns up to play. Either way we can and should get over them quite comfortably

              Richmond's skills are appalling.

              Had they been playing half decent teams in the past two weeks they wouldn't have got close.

              I am fairly confident when Sydney go to Melbourne these days as we play well at Telstra Dome and the MCG.

              This should be a win.

                What decent teams have the Swans played his year??

                Round 6 - Brisbane - Win
                Round 5 - Geelong - Win
                Round 4 - Melbourne - Loss
                Round 3 - Carlton - Win
                Round 2 - Port Adelaide - Loss
                Round 1 - Essendon - Win

                It's hardly a list of who's who in the football world, Is it?

                  No it ain't but we know full well how the Swans play, down the lower teams and up for the better ones.

                    Based on what's been posted; I'd put Annieswan on Richo and Destructive on Ray Hall.

                    Shame Schultz isn't playing - the rest of the cheer squad could continue to offer him a beer whenever he runs past.

                      Round 1 was a loss by the way.

                      As hammo said, their skills have been appalling but they have not given up, and maintained the pressure that has seen them keep on winning.

                      Even Wallace gave them a Z for skills and a A for effort.

                        This season is looking and feeling so very much like last season. Apart from Collingwood and Hawthorn, even the ladder is similar. I'm waiting for Hawthorn to do what Richmond did last year and take a nose dive down the ladder - someone's gotta make way for us.

                          Whenever we play the Tigers I can't help but be reminded of the Kath & Kim episode where Kath is decked out in her Richmond gear and in walks Kel with the Swannies jumper. She was speechless.

                            Whenever we play the Tigers i'm reminded by that feral cheer squad streaker who peraded herself in her underwear on the ground in our match in 2003. Worst. Sight. Ever!

                              Yeah, that was terrible indeed and she totally put off Richo as well.

                                IMO we will lose this week unless we play much better than we did against Brisbane who are very poor. I am constantly amazed by how overconfident people on this site are at times.
                                A good side, even a bubbly Richmond, would have made mincemeat of us by making less mistakes than we did, whereas Brisbane threw away a lot of our clangers.
                                We must hope they persevere in picking that bloke Stafford...who reminds me just a little of a fine athlete that gave us some good years.
