One more sleep!

[erica]

That's if you can sleep. I'm so anxious about this game. Please tell me I'm not the only one?

[Bazman]

I'm the same, I,ve started getting the cap, scarf and polo shirt ready for the get go. Spewing that I'm not going to get up there for the game. I'm truly excited for this game.

You are not the only one - I haven't slept since Collongwood won last weekend. I feel sick.

[ScottH]

I have indigestion at the moment.
Stress related I'm guessing.

Don't think I've enjoyed the build-up to a big game...any less than this week. Tried not to fret, obsess and read every article. Failed.

I'll feel a lot better at ANZ tomorrow night, straight after the first bounce when it's game on and "just another" 4 quarters. And I can see how we really look, instead of imagining how we might look.

my exact thoughts

[Matt79]

Don't think I will be sleeping!! Too nervous and excited!!

[Hazcam]

I'm really nervous about this one. I wonder if the hoodoo is in the back of their minds. We need to get off to a good start and not get beaten out of the centre too easily. We can't afford them to get a roll on.

I think we need to do something different because the swans game style has been mastered by the pies in the last 11 encounters. They've won by an average 25 points.

We need to open the game up.

We need to get back to the scoring of mid season and kick 15 goals +

I won't be satisfied with a thriller I want to see a comprehensive thumping.

On the flip side the pies will be using all that emotion of the week to spur them on.

There are no excuses.

[R-1]

we just have to do this

just have to

[Go Swannies]

Feeling calm this week. We'll either win or not and I'm expecting we will. I wonder if the Pies will come in heavy like they did against the Hawks? And I hope we keep our calm and just get on with it - and take the frees they supply.

[DLBIA14]

Just been preparing for the game today (!) and I'm starting to feel really sick in my stomach. With any loss throughout the year and I always console myself thinking we can make it up next week, but just the prospect of losing to the Pies (again) in the current circumstances where there would be no prospect of redemption till next year...

I just hope the boys are handling this better than us.

I was at the last game we played against them at ANZ. We should have won. They play really ugly, shut the game down, cause lots of packs and then burst out of them. They did the same last week against Eagles. We don't want to allow that sort of game, we need to get the ball wide and run, run , run as John Kennedy Snr used to say. We need to become Kennedy's Commando's. A wave of Red & White all the way down the field and those players who are not going to get the ball set up road blocks to hold Pies up. We need to move the ball very quickly to unnerve them and catch them out. We need to have several different methods to move the ball into the forward line and I think Morton is going to be so important

I am really calm and confident about this game..i really think as the swans are always written off even when we are favourites plays into their hands ..we will win this game handsomely ..goodes is only just starting to hit his straps..jetta is also starting to run and carry the way he was earlier this season..the biased commentary really gets annoys me though..listen again tonight as excuses are made for collingwood...i love the way sydney play they are so unrelenting and fierce at the contest..looking foward to dining on some tired pies..swans 18 pts plus

[ScottH]

so I got 3/4 of a nights sleep.

[stellation]

Surely at your age you save the other 1/4 of a night's sleep for a nap through the day?
