Just wanna get a gauge on tomorrow nights game.
I myself was very confident until i saw Fraser wasnt named, then i was a bit worried.
Sydney have won 6 in a row, but doing some research brings out the fact that they havent played a top 6 side in that period.
We know we match up well against them, and personally, ive had a 50 on us at under 39 1/2 points, got 3.50.
Think we will finally win a close one (please).

i am pretty confident, or i'd like to be
but theres never a game where im not nervous. especially this one, our game really hangs in the balance. i dont want to be in the eight just on percentage you know...

it all depends on whether we can adapt to playing the "hunted" as opposed to the "hunter".. i have a feeling sydney is going to come out and TRY to do to us what we did to geelong.. having said that im expecting us to win by 4-6goals... look for martin clarke to have a blinder...
be interesting , first game without goodes in what 180 games or more?
that may be enough to unsettle them hopefully. we always need our mids on song , but more importantly
wakes on hall
goldy on micky o
maxwell on okeefe
will be the match ups we need to win, which i am confident we can.
other thing in our favour is the run that malceski and mattner do, can be countered with our potent small forwards.
be a close one , three goals eitheir way
I'm never confident, I never expect to win so when we do its really enjoyable.
If the Collingwood that the played cats turns up we'll win but if the one that played the blues we wont.
Two burning questions.
-How Sydney go without Goodes.
-How will Collingwood go without big Ant & Reid.
I'm nervous, but I see it as a very winnable game. Our destiny really is in our hands here. A win will put us into 5th place, and still in touch of the top 4. A loss will threaten our spot in the 8. This is a game we have to win to establish ourselves as contenders. It's time to stand up Pies.

If we are a challenging team this season we WILL beat them. We've done it before but we must continue to beat teams, including the ones abouve us on the ladder.
The week off should have done us some good, hopefully it shows tonight.
A bit nervous, but not as nervous as some other games this year.
GO PIES!
