I agree completely! The season will be 2077, 72 years after the Swans last win.

On a more serious note, although Horse is yet to reach the greatness of Roosy as a coach, it will be interesting to see if he is an improvement on a coaching match up with Mick Malthouse. With the exception of the Swans Round 6 2003 victory, I always believed that Malhouse had a much greater coaching edge on Paul Roos, even taking into account Sydney's narrow wins in 2004 and 2005 when Collingwood were close to the bottom of the ladder and the Swans were one of the best teams in the competition, (particularly the latter year)

Interesting point here as I remember Roos saying a couple of months ago that matchday tactics wasnt his strong point. Maybe he was being modest, but if Longmire proves to be a better tactician than Roos (jury is still out) and if we play like we did in parts of the NAB Cup (and if the planets all line up, etc) then dare I dream the dream?

That's the spirit, Wardy!
