Swans vs GWS - elimination final

[liz]

Not that im not already supremely excited by our future! But there is something invaluable about winning a final that i think really sets teams up for future success! It starts today!!

CHEER CHEER

I also reckon our season "deserves" to carry on for another week. There's a clear gap, points wise, between us and the two teams that finally snuck into the final eight. I'm proud of them regardless, but it would be a flat way to end a rewarding season. It's just unfortunate (and not unlike previous seasons, like 2016) that having had a very good run with injury throughout the season, we have been hit now, not so much in numbers but in importance.

"Port were serviceable"?. Cant agree with you there. Port's use of the ball was stunning last night, quick hands in close, and disposal was first class. It was in Adelbrain though and they are notorious poor travellers.

My tip : We'll win today, beat Geelong next week but lose the prelim. Melbourne will win the GF. Its very hard to win from
outside the top 4 regardless of the form you are in at the end of the H & A.

Same old record spinning the same old tune.

You crap on that no one player can be blamed for things one second, but then we all know who you'll focus in on, irrespective of how he plays, if we do lose today. We get it - you hate the guy and won't stop deathriding until he is delisted, or until your argument becomes so untenable that an awakening moment is a given.

The fact of the matter is we need a collective big effort from everyone in the midfield group today.

my tip , win today in tough encounter by 12 points , win next week in a canter and win the prelim by 2 points on our way to winning the granny by 10 points stunning everybody

32 pages before the game starts. I think it's fair to say we are excited, and also nervous!

I'm concerned about the loss of Kennedy and Mills, they are big outs. Which is not to say they can't be covered, but I think it will take 100% from everyone today.

I hope they go well and give it everything. It's been an enjoyable season, much better than I'd hoped for, regardless of the result today.

Buddy will rally them to a fabulous victory, keep the youngsters composed and focused and he will give another tip to a Giants back on how to play him (he’s so generous like this).

Thanks for the answers re Joey everyone.

I might've been a bit optimistic thinking he might come up as a sneaky sub if we were collapsing in the middle.

I've got bubbles in the fridge for afters and calming down.

Goooooooo Swans

Yes Buddy looked very focused last week which is a good sign. It will be a tough match without Kennedy and Mills in the centre. But as long as we run and spread the football around I think we can win.

Lucky socks too

Fox confirmed as sub.

Port subbed out Fantasia last night on a minor niggle and Powell-Pepper came on and lit the game up. As mentioned by others, the medical sub can be a tactical play to inject fresh legs late in the game if you have not been required to use it before.

Hardy a drop of wind at this stage at the ground

I agree. Sick of hearing the hate. Rowie was really good until he got injured
