Confident? you bet! This is only the 7th time I have travelled interstate to watch the boys play. To date we have won every time.

Adelaide at footy park when they opened the new Northern Stand in 2001.
Collingwood at the Dome in 2001
Melbourne at the G in 2006
North at Manuka, in 2006
the GF in 2005
Brissy in 2008

Most times we weren't the faves - i'll be on the southern terrace tomorrow, can't wait!

Mate, if that is your record, the club should pay for your to attend all away games. (That is, I think you would find that the Swans were favourites for all of those above games

I don't remember us being the faves in the 05 granny and I would have thought it was pretty even in the Lions game this year.

We'll do the Cats today. And i reckon the Hall - "Glass-jaw" Staker incident has a lot to do with that.

Why?

Well the fact is that we've been playing some pretty scintillating, yet controlled footy. Certainly better than anyone else (with the probable exception of the Cats). And had the incident not occurred, it may well be that the focus would have been on the Swans great start to the season.

But alas, the media focus (and subsequently, Geelong's) has been on Hall, possibly allowing the Swans to fly in under the radar. And the Cats are also likely to drop their guard a fraction as they no doubt believe that Hall is just about our most important player - whilst i, like many others, am of the genuine belief that we can be just as effective without him given the attacking options we have.

Far fetched? Am I clutching at straws? I honestly don't think so.

Just remember - you heard it here first.

Love to share your optomism, but can't see Sydney getting within 4-5 goals of Geelong.
