FIRE UP!! We are playing finals!!

[Matt79]

I don't know what it is today but it hit me that geez we are playing finals footy again!! This is what they play footy for...September is nearly here. The National Anthem playing, our team running out, the buzz, the green grass of spring...this is the time!

I am pumped! There are 8 other sides who would give everything to be in our position.

Let's make history and become the first side to win the premiership from 7th or 8th...GO BLOOD BOYS!!

Cheer Cheer is playing loudly and then Holy Grail... 'Sydney Swans, September...Something Special!!"

[Bas]

Well at least for the first week anyway. AS much as I would like to be positive, reality will take its course.

Top 10 draft pick this year.

I wish I had your optimism and enthusiasm.

I am not saying we will win the whole thing this year but lets enjoy the fact we have made the finals again and our team will be there!

Look at his avatar - he is clearly on drugs.

Some of these pretenders like Cats, PA, Kangas, Pies, and hawks won't know what has hit them when the big finals teams like SS, WCE and possibly the crows start putting the finals heat on them.

You say it like it's bad thing - apparently so is half the players in the AFL.

When we win the first final everyone will jump back on board.

Unfortunetly, every winner in the first week from positions 5-8, suddenly starts dreaming of the fairytail, only to get slaughtered by one of the top 4 teams the following week.

[NMWBloods]

I agree with barry. I did during finals last year and we were wrong, so hopefully that will be the case again!

[Layby]

Does 'fire up' include wishful thinking?

No it is what Mark Gasnier asked the girl too do in his text message

I am assuming he means we should all go out and have casual sex

I have taken his advice

I'm with you Matt. Playing finals is better than not playing finals, when you have Nick Davis, the greatest footballer the world has ever seen, on your team anything can happen. I think it is exciting.

[Zlatorog]

Yeah, people, dream on.

I agree, I am under the impression that since winning the flag and playing in 2 GF that some people now feel that anything less is unacceptable. Rather silly attitude IMO.

Just between us I think a lot of them are schmucks.
