    Be glad they're not playing in Melbourne on Saturday night. The weather is going to be a lot worse: cold, wet, windy with hail, and on the Alps blizzards will be possible.

      They reckon 50-55cm of snow on Sunday.
      Brrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
      Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
      Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

        A chance for Aliir to come in for Sinclair - maybe if Sinclair is a 'late withdrawal'

          Don't think they'd bring in a tall for a tall

            I have a vague recollection of Goodsey occasionally donning the long-sleeved jumper in a few games (early in his career). Does anyone else recall that? Or is my memory playing tricks on me?



            Edit: Seems like I'm not delusional. Managed to find a picture

                Apparently someone put a single bet of $100,000 on the Swans to win (although this was a few days ago - at $2.10).

                  Don't know if I'm making things up but I have an image in my head of Lloyd in a long sleeve top.

                  There is a big out for tonight...no BT!! Unfortunately Hamish will probably take his place.

                      It's 15% chance of rain until 10pm then 55%. Then again I recall Richo giving us a complete hiding in pouring rain at the SCG once - one of the most miserable afternoons of my life.

                        Everyone bangs on re Danger. Hell, like the loss of Kennedy is irrelevant. We will soooooo miss him in the middle

                          They haven't finished their warm-up yet...

                            He remains one of the more under-rated players in the competition. Agree that we'll miss him hugely. Maybe we have others more capable of stepping up in his absence than the Cats do to cover Dangerfield. (I'm trying to convince myself - not wholly successfully - as I type this.)

                            Parker has a pretty good record against Geelong. We'll need him to be close to his best tonight.

                              That's funny - I have the image of Buddy in the long sleeve top - it might just be the warm-up attire they wear, but I can't shake it.

                                Do the Swans have a long sleeved guernsey - don't think I've ever seen one.

                                Good luck tonight boys; no cute stuff. Just play footy.
                                I presume you mean a recent one as the ones mentioned so far are older players (& BTW Robbie AhMatt & Stuart Maxfield also did). But ...
