    According to the Swans magazine the club has requested a Friday night match in Sydney at the SCG for 2007. Some of you may be getting your wish!

      I would, but I'd have to put in for those days off.

        I think it would be a great idea. I'll never forget the nerves and lack of productivity at work before last year's finals. Bring it on I say!!

          It's a simple choice between Friday nights and Sunday's because you can't have both - creates too long a break or too short a break.

          So, I prefer Sundays hence no to Fridays...

            Finish work at 5pm. Pub crawl to the SCG and then a game at 7.10.

            Yep a Friday night at the SCG would be just fine.

              I hate Friday night games. I sit there at work not wanting to be there just itching to be at the footy. Often have to lug flags etc to work which is a complete hassle to be honest.

              Getting to Homebush on a Friday would actually be easier than the SCg to be honest. The South Dowling street rush hour is a disgrace. Last night at the futbol people were turning up in the 60th minute of the game because of the standstill traffic.

                  Friday night gives us our footy fix AND a weekend. Please give us at least one next year.

                    I'd like us to play more day games at TS.

                    I much prefer day games to night games, and I prefer to see us play on bigger grounds.

                      Friday day games would suck though.

                        Think of all the space in ground though - you could wander from seat to seat, put your feet up, no queues for beer...

                          No, I'd be one of the empty seats.
