Match Day Thread - Round 23 - Geelong

[Cheer Squad]

Well, well, well...here I am in Geelong, sitting on the wharf, and guess who are doing some last minute training drills in the park behind me, playing silly games with a kiddies ball? I hope they're all as upbeat later on today...

You must be freezing!

It's actually a beautiful day down here, warm sun and blue sky everywhere. Hope it continues like this.

Keep an eye on them Cheer Squad don't want any last minute injuries with a kiddies ball! Go the Swans have a good day.

So long as nobody cops it in the eye from a tennis ball...

Its a typically beautiful Melbourne winters day. Nothing like that wet crap you northerners seem to get all winter !!

Walking around the city, the cats supporters are out in numbers. I'm getting some smirks from the smug bastards too, hopefully the boys can wipe them off of their faces later today. Or at least make them falter.

Yeah, it's been sunny and 20 degrees all week, we're SO jealous! (:

Its dull and almost raining up in Sydney. This year has been ............. for footy days.

However, I am predicting an upset. Not sure who will be upset, but I am predicting someone will be upset.

It really has. I can recall only 3 home games with reasonable weather: Essendon ANZ, Hawks SCG, Saints ANZ.

It's been a tough week emotionally; let's hope the boys are up and about today and ready to play. I have a feeling they're going to go well today.

Call me crazy or dellusional, but I have a good feeling about today.. an upset might be on the cards.

I woke up with a strangely good feeling too. I don't wanna jinx anything, but I think the result may surprise a lot of people. We shall see..

Big job for Alex Johnson today, he'll be on one of the 3 talls at stages today. Podsiadly, Hawkins and Ottens are all bigger and stronger than he is so he'll need to play smart and not engage in 'feats of strength' contests with any of them.

[swansprincess]

Hawkins isn't that much of a threat I don't think. But Podsiadly is a bull. And Steve Johnson is a magician, so it's a given that their forward line will be firing. The big question is, will ours? I predict that's where our chance will be..

First game I'm not watching live in a very very long time and it's making me nervous ... Relying on RWO for updates!!
