It's my dad's birthday today and we'll be watching the game together at the Warren View Hotel in Newtown. I'd imagine the Swan's will come through with a win for the old man!Comment

Not happy about Rose. The last two NEAFL games have their streams up on YouTube. If you have time, then take a look at his little performance when he marks inside 50. He turns his back on his team mates and the goals, throws the ball on the ground in front of him, and walks towards it before putting his mouthguard in his sock and picking the ball up before turning around again. In the meantime, the other forwards could be leading into space during the entire time, but it seems to be all about Rose. If he does that tonight, expect to see the other players giving him a mouthful.
I think it was Plugger who used to pull his wedged undies out, pull up his socks and kick a goal.
Kizza has a few little running steps; MickyO would put his arms out like he was just about to take off...
If it means a goal... go ahead sunshine.

OMG... the strain!!!!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.Comment

The game is still 3 hours away, why is our chance gone? The way I see it, if the Swans turn up they'll win.Comment

Provided our newly minted (this season) forward line of codgers and youngsters can click the Tiggers will have at least as much to worry about as we do! Though we'd be even better with Papley on deck.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)Comment

For some reason, I'm remarkably calm at the moment.....surely that won't last as the game gets closer.

I?m extremely nervous. Head says we?ll lose, heart hopes we win. It?s going to be a serious examination of the credentials of the playing and coaching group.
I?ll be interested to see if Horse and co took anything tactically from the Tiger defeats e.g. short kicks out of defence. The other tactic is giving Rance a genuine opponent. I think Buddy?s got that covered.
Hoping it?s a great game.
Swans by a point.Comment

One thing that may have been overlooked with the selection of Rose is that in the 2016 season where he strung a few games together he averaged over 5 tackles per game. Performing like that tonight could provide the edge in forward pressure that may decide the gameComment

Whether Rose retains his spot may depend on Papley?s fitness. But even if Papley is available I?d prefer they give Rose another go and ?rest? Jack. We know Jack has struggled with a hip issue for a couple of seasons. Ow. He doesn?t look anything like fit enough to be able to make any valuable contribution.Comment
