    I would have thought the Aints would struggle more than our boys. Not playing at Docklands any time is a disadvantage for the Aints.

      That's right, the Saints rarely play in the rain.

            Don't remind me, pretending that one never happened.

            It did rain for a bit in the PF last year, I'll count that one

              It rained during the last quarter against Hawthorn this year but it didnt slow Sydney down one bit. And despite a soggy SCG in last years SF, which noone told Sydney about, we still managed to beat Geelong. We do OK in the wet.

                But, how many Get Out of Gaol Free cards do we get?

                  Except for an inspired last quarter by Nick Davis, we were phenomenally abysmal in the wet against Geelong in the SF.

                    Thankfully I don't reckon there is a worse side in the wet than StKilda - too much time under the roof.

                      Probably NOT the best example of our ability in the wet.

                        The Swans were awesome against the Eagles in the Wet at Subi last year. I have such fond memories.

                          Also in the final at TS a couple of years ago, the 'Shake Down the Thunder' match that nearly got cancelled at half time.

                            also against the Weagles.

                              Sure. But it was a win in the end. And they we caught out by the unexpected wet ground and still managed a win.

                                I think the PF against the Saints in 04 is a more accurate reminder of our abilities in the wet
