Richmond v Sydney

[Melb Blood Bro]

My worry with tonight is that we've had a series of tough matches in which the results were fantastic. It is human nature to relax in the easier run of games. I spoke to John Longmire yesterday and he certainly isn't looking at it that way, and I'm sure the players aren't either but will they have that extra 5% needed?

had some light drops of rain out east.

*Please Hold out*

nearly time to dash off from work.

I tipped us by 36.

Same here in Nunawading. Drops falling from time to time.

Richmond have lost their last 6 games at the MCG.

They're due for a win!

[Bleed Red Blood]

Been a fair number of debuts in melbs over the years. go Swans! Seen the tiges a bit this year, Rance on Buddy will be cool. hope rain stays aways, looks okay at the moment, bitter cold tho.

I never have confidence in the result until the final siren. The draw with Freo last year shook me to my core. Richmond did decently last week and have a couple of handy inclusions.

That said, Swans by 52 with a dry track. 32 in the wet.

Just heard rumour on SEN that Josh Kennedy is a late out.

I wouldn't be surprised. Last week seemed to take a lot out of the boys.

I would actually like us to play some games in the rain.. Surely we aren't going to sail all through the rest of the year without it.. I would like to see us get better at playing in those conditions now rather than get thumped on GF day if it is wet..

From Twitter: No late changes! Zak is a sub.

Good old SEN. Where would the rumour mill be without them?

Might have been the West Coast version.

No changes according to 3AW. But why are they only talking about how bad Richmond are? Swannies hardly mentioned.

From the TV Guide

With the Tigers clinging to finals hopes and Sydney on a march to the top four, it's a high stakes affair at the MCG. Bruce McAvaney and Dennis Cometti lead the call with commentary from Leigh Matthews

Nice to see the gross inaccuracies aren't confined to the commentary

Please don't scare me like that again!

Go swannies ????. On the way to the ground now.

Watching the pre-game AFL 'classic' match on Fox - Syd v Rich Rd 7 2012. I keep trying to talk to Benny through the TV to not stretch out so much running!
