Kangas 2007 = Swans 2003

[#73]

You don't "fluke" your way into 4th place and then a preliminary final.

Yeah you do. Kangas just did it.

Weren't Sydney also favourites to take out the spoon before the 2003 season?

Yep.

And if Port win this week, they also would of been beaten in the prelim by the eventual premiers just like the swans were in 2003.

No doubt about it, Collingwood with their youth and great experienced coach are the team to watch in the next three years so.

Hawthorn should also be a team on the rise.

I worry about Sydney being left behind if they stick to the 2005 template. They must seriously consider promoting young players like Collingwood has done in recent times. If the Swans next year and the year after are to focus on the 'usual suspects' , (eg the Matthews, the Barrys, etc), we can forget about winning games against teams like Collingwood.

You're preaching to the converted round here.

Edited for accuracy.
