Prelim Final: Swans vs Collingwood 4.45pm Sat 17 September SCG

I'm hoping that Hotpotato's earlier post re Brisbane's loss to Geelong, will apply to the Magpies too. We are the rested team and may be sharper at the start (here's hoping) and less likely to run out of steam when the chips are down. The weather and likely slippery conditions however is an unknown factor. It may depend on who adapts to the conditions better.

It doesn't look slippery at all.... Unless there is more rain should be a non-issue.

OMG I am so nervous! I need the game to hurry up and start. 30 minutes to go.

The deck is perfect.

That segment by channel 7 about the Buddy 1000 goal was really impressive. Loved hearing from the various players including Buddy.

I simply couldn't go today because it would be too stressful- I gave my barcodes to some other Swans fans. I'm not sure I can actually watch this...

I know how you feel … I feel [emoji1785]!

Warner uses the ball beautifully- that was a horrible free kick against Heeney- Collingwood player quite clearly was falling into that high free...Umpires look like they want to 'even' things up at the moment. Why wasn't Mills paid in the back there?

Blakey is keeping the pies in this

[tlock]

Is there a better use for McDonald? He's struggling up forward, maybe put him at ruck since Reid seems injured.

For some reason I'm the same with this game and now at half time I'm worried about the Pies accuracy keeping them in it!

11.7 (73) is our equal highest half time score this year, matched by our round 19 game against Adelaide.

Here come the umps...

I was really pissed off last night listening to SEN after midnight. A Collingwood supporter rang up and there was discussion about the huge crowd last night and then talk moved on to the crowd at the Prelim and the Collingwood supporter said we "have no soul". What a load of crap! I was so furious ????. He obviously watched their last game against us on mute. Same with the Qualifying Final.

I really really really hope we smash them and he sees what "souless" is like.

Hope that caller enjoys his summer break. Also hope he was watching OUR players and OUR crowd's reaction to the win. The Bloods culture is embedded in our players AND our fans!

GO YOU MIGHTY BLOODS!!

Haha YES! I wanted it to be a smashing but a 1 point win is just as good and he will be hurting even more ????.
