      The acclaimed return of Mcveigh is mystifying considering his greatest assets were his kicking and endurance which are facets of his game that have deserted him since our GF loss in 2014.He has been a good servant,but surely Nic Newman who has similar attributes is more deserving of an opportunity.

          Nice try. Bookies have us as massive favourites.

          I'll be upset we lose at home

            I thought Macca's voice an direction and link play was excellent last year and needed now

              If we win tomorrow we'll only be three wins out of the eight with 15 games to play. Eeeeaaaaaazzzzzzzy!!!!
              Those who have the greatest power to hurt us are those we love.

                Can we bring in Jarrod Witts as a late replacement. 2 games in 2 days would not be too much to ask. Starred for the Gold Coast and he is from Sydney. Another great trade by the Pies. How did we miss him, twice?

                  And if Hawthorn lose, then we will move up to 16th on percentage. It will be quite an accomplishment if we could finish the season that high given our poor start. But I have confidence in this group. We can do it.

                  We got Callum Sinclair instead. Funny that Sinclair is good enough to play for the Swans, but Jetta isn't good enough to play for the Eagles. I guess we got the better of that trade.

                    I can't figure out if your posts are angst ridden sarcasm, venting you're frustration, or if you really don't care at all and are simply making light of the situation at every given opportunity.
                    The difference between insanity and genius is measured only in success.

                      Ludwig just mixes it all up for our entertainment. His deeper knowledge of the game and all the players from every club does indicate he's got far too much time on his hands .
                      He has to be single, unemployed and homeless.

                        McVeigh in for Newman - you've got to be joking.

                        Jarrad has played no games since the 2016 GF and he should not have played in that game.

                        Will he even get through the game without re-injuring his calf?

                        I'm inclined to agree with Barry that the BL will see this as a sign of desperation.

                          I think this is our best balanced team of the year good flexibility on the bench, 2 rucks in and Macca back to organise the defence. I know plenty don't like towers but I believe he is miles ahead of Rose BJ or Foote. The Swans win with this team and now our season begins.

                                Taking the options in order, Ludwig is an ironist, handles his frustration with lightness, and cares about the team and its situation but has other concerns that matter more. His graphics are usually excellent.

                                Purely a personal take of course.
                                He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)
