    Rooboy sorry to break this to you but the Bloods actually have enough money in the kitty to pony up some plane fares. Your impecunious mob hitchikes over and back do they?

          Now I'll have no one to boo (other than the maggots of course).
          Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.

            Oooh, ouch. That article stung. I must finally have become a Swans tragic; I got a little misty (with frustration) reading that!

            And I'm hoping they do come out firing - not just for the team, but 'cause I'm probably taking a gaggle of in-laws to the game ...

              Can i suggest a solarium tanned pretender who our esteemed President no less wanted to impose on us, who is in the last year of a much hyped but disasterous five year premiership plan and who once had a serial scratcher playing on his team. Why not boo him. The Tige supporters will be.

                Nah.
                Can't kick a horse while it's down (except if your name is Cousins).

                We more or less told him what we thought of him when we threatened to hang our CEO for even thinking of hiring him over Roosey.

                  I'm picking Sydney, but not by much ... provided of course, that they actually turn up to play.

                  Cousins is never going to be an "ex-junkie".He is a recovering drug addict and no,he is not playing in the one's this week.(I read that in the media so you can take it or leave it).
                  Anyway we are going forward...you can't go back and I'm sure the boys will do a good job against Richmond.

                    Swans by 43 points, we'll flog the Tiggers at home.

                      Sydney by 33

                      The embarrassment of letting down Kirky will spark them to a much bigger effort this week.

                            We beat Hawthorn after the St Kilda debacle, so it can be done.

                              The SCG is a vastly different proposition for any team to play on. If we had played Freo here the result may welll have been vastly differnt. Our blokes aren't liking the extra space all that much it would appear, and playing on the smaller SCG seems to offer us an advantage, so I think we'll be hard to beat at home but struggle for wins interstate, can we make the finals with 11 wins? Probably not. But we will win this week.

                                This I never really understand. The SCG, according to the AFL's website, is 149m x 136m. Ethihad is 159.5m x 128.8m*. That's not a great difference, and I can't think it's enough to jar anyone. Home ground advantage is one thing, but can someone point out to me just how different the SCG is to the other grounds?

                                *These playing dimensions are almost identical to ANZ Stadium, btw.
