swans versus Collingwood game thread

Hall marks and... GOALS!!!

Finally Bazza gets one.

This should be the last game at this ground for a while - it is pathetic.

No bounce, and divots galore. Jill Lindsay needs to get some new glasses.

If the AFL buy the stadium (60% chance) then they should rule out most Rugby games at the ground. Not like 6000 people turning up is keeping it afloat anyway.

I far prefer watching us play at the SCG anyway and we enjoy a more significant home ground advantage.

forget western sydney...let them have rugby league. Keep us at the SCG and we win and then we can have a team in Tassie.

The AFL is not a listed business. It should be a non profit organisation for the fans of the game

Is this in jest? A few chickens have come home to roost tonight. We are a long way off the top teams and our ladder position flatters us.

A reminder...

Wins against

Port (twice), Brisbane, West Coast (twice), Essendon, Richmond, St Kilda, Melbourne

Losses against

St Kilda, Geelong, Bulldogs, Collingwood

I've been saying for more than a month that we've beaten no one all season and don't look as good as our ladder position suggested (and constantly called too negative yet now everyone is agreeing with me...?!?!). Anyway, we have bogey sides - like Adelaide in '05 and '06 - what matters is how we go in the remaining key games (and hope we don't meet Collingwood in finals - like we didn't meet Adelaide in '05 and '06).

I think this is a point which is just not well understood by many - we have played two of the bottom three sides twice already. we are yet to play the decent sides

btw buchanan has got to be ready for being dropped for schmidt doesn't he ?

[Rob-bloods]

Roos should try something different. No chipping, kick it long, play on at every good opportunity. Collingwood are flooding our backline so some fast play into F50 would put their backmen under more pressure.

Precisely, this is the worst point of tonight, no change or invention to beat the oppositions tactics. Try it up the middle, the narrow ground gets us coralled on the flanks bang it long ...aaargh at least try something for 20 minutes!!!

MOL!!!!!!!!!!!!

FYI - I think I made a similar comment in the Port game thread althought somehow we managed to get out of jail in that one.

Goal to MOL - maybe a comeback? Some favourable umpiring helped us for a change (no free against Richards).

Cool - so we agree.

[Thunder Shaker]

[TheGrimReaper]
