Plays etihad well and kicked 4-5 goals in the corresponding game last year. Id be staggered if we kick a winning score with that forward line.
    I think that it's good that White has to be more consistant in the 2's before he gets a game. If he is going to be a good LONG TIME forward for us he needs to work on that.

      Roos has played Goodes in the forward line for many weeks without much success. Last week he plays back in his Borwnlow winning position and does the job. So I don't understand why he keeps playing him in the forward line. Then this week, he goes in without a recognised forward.

      If they lose this week, time for Roos to go.

        I call for Roos to be removed as our senior coach at the end of this season.

        And Goodesy for a third Borwnlow I say.

          this is what the goal scoring list will look like

          McGlynn - 3
          McVeigh - 2

            So you think it will make any difference. Goodes will win his third "Borwnlow" but under a career coach.

              I was being sarcastic (woop woop woop - that's a sarcasm alert ringing). I think Roosy is the best coach we have ever had. I cannot understand why most of the cretins on this site constantly call for his head. Is he perfect? No. Have we had any other coaches in the past three quarters of century do better? No again.

                So who was our "target" last week? We had nine different goal kickers and TDL is the only one missing this week.
                Are you saying that him not being there will mean we will be unable to kick goals?

                So it looks like we have a one paced forward line full of of tired resting midfielders producing no real leads and marks and creating no space just getting in each others way like they do in the midfield one win against a ordinary opponent and it's throw the old duds into positions they never have been any good at.
                I guess the ones who like to see the youngsters be given a go have one win...........Meredith, about time he was back in the team! hopefully he plays so well they wouldn't dream of dropping him after a couple of weeks.
                You are so negative time after time after time.
                You live in WA, why not support either of your home teams?
                Coasters are "playing all the kids" as you seem to want and Freo are winning.
                Surely you'd be far happier supporting either of those options then the "old duds" you're forced to support with Sydney!

                  And you believe in the tooth fairy and the honesty of coaches signalling match-ups equally, right?

                  From afl.com.au

                  However, he predicted that rejuvenated Swans co-captain Adam Goodes would renew acquaintances with Carlton skipper Judd on Sunday in a battle to warm the hearts of football purists.

                  ?They?ve had some great battles over the years. Adam will probably start [in a] half-forward, midfield-type role and ? I?d expect 'Juddy' to start in the middle this week,? Roos said.

                    Adelaide beat Geelong. You are kidding me. This is what upsets me about the Swans. They are so predictable they rarely cause a big upset like this. Adelaide now only 4 points behind with us to play this weekend. Anyone who thinks we have a top 8 spot sealed are kidding themselves. It's time for this team to stand up and be counted.

                        Surprise but I kind of realised that considering that at season end, Roos coaching ends.
                        Cretins???????? Stooping to insult because someone has an opinion different to yours isn't very mature. We haven't had any better coaches because we've never had any better management than we currently have. You could start a long discussion on NSW players lost to Victorian teams due to bad management.

                            Yeah,I can't wait. Rhys gives us that x factor we don't need..the ability to not kick the match winning goal.Teddy,,well as stated many times ,he's a great guy,good writer but the game seems to have got too fast for him. I would have liked big Mike the Pyke at FF. He can mark,he is fast,he can kick as accurate as Rhys or Teddy and he is on an improvement curve,not on a slide down the curve.

                              Yes but he is a BIG target who surely under the circumstances with injuries and a make shift forward line etc, should of got a recall for this game.
