        I just logged on to say - you know you've got issues when you log on to see the team sheet. Such a habit and can't believe I did it!!

          You've lost the whole team? Can you remember where you saw it last? Concentrate - this is important! We may need that team in a week or so.

              BS it all sort of fell into place unnoticed. Bride-to-be did ask "when's the Swans game?" and I just said they have a bye that weekend and no more was said. What would I be doing otherwise but hiding macarons from chunky Nicky D while watching Balmain with Primmy? But my advance planning fades to insignificance against Stella's genius. I want Stella as my personal trainer!
              fantastic GS & congrats to the lovely Bride too - good news. I will toast your good fortune as I will be in Mapua (near Nelson NZ) at an old friends 50th, Hope you both have a fantastic and perfect day.

                Thanks Wardy. I'm even getting her to a few games now - as well as the B&F.

                  That's not like in "bye" to GWS I hope.

                    I am on a business trip in Shanghai to occupy my bye-weekend; it is far to hot to play football here.

                    But from habit I thought I should log in to get the news.

                        It's a brilliant day for footy in Sydney. Sunny and the ground should be in fabulous shape to see the reserves as well.

                        Oh wait...there's no game today! That would be right.

                          I feel like we should start a game day thread anyway.

                            I mostly agree with you. They are definitely not a premiership threat IMO either. Just observing that the job against them would have been easier early in the season than now - they are in undeniably better form. The upside for us of course is that beating them will be a lot sweeter and more credible!

                            The only point of difference is that I didn't see them pulling anything out of their season - I thought they would be well into planning mode for their next five seasons by now. That they have defied a 1W-1D-5L start to the season to be in the mix for a finals berth deserves some begrudging credit I guess.

                              I hope after a weeks rest

                              Rhys Shaw has leant the difference between a Swans Guernsey and the opposition and starts kicking to us

                              ROK's quick kick out of the pack will have a Swans player ready and waiting for it. This drill will have been practised.

                              Sammy will have had hours of goal kicking practise and have a set routine to prevent kicking into the player on the mark from 15 metres out.

                              TDLwill have finally proved he can apply defensive pressure and be part of the 22.
