Unofficial Preview Round 5 Early Thoughts: Sydney Swans vs Western Bulldogs

[Number37]

Wouldnt write the crows off

But i rate the doggies we will need to be on early, dont let them get their tails up

Nah, Crows are massively over rated and Doggies are improving but nowhere near ready.
Another half arsed effort (like v GWS) and we win comfortably again.

 

[The King!]

Carlton Brisbane Stkilda

They are all pathetic

Gold coast close
The rest are all danger games

Even the above you cant be too careful

 

[The King!]

Sydney Rarely lose these games they should win

Yes there are exceptions like rnd 1 last year

We should win this

But i respect the doggies

 

[The King!]

So who gets stringer

 

[Mister B]

I'd say Grundy and Reid being used as the man to fill the leading space.

 

[Dangas]

Can i get in early and declare it a danger game?

Next two weeks are danger games, Dogs and Dees away. Then again every game is one to never take lightly or with complacency.

When you support Sydney every week is a danger game

I almost feel more relaxed when it seems over like half time last night

Maybe the players are the same

Have to be rampe wouldnt it? Stringer's a bull

Equalization is working.

Hope it isnt like him on fyfe

Though stringer is inconsistent

 

[The King!]

Stringer subbed off

Better rest him next week

 

[melbournehammer]

At the crows dogs because one of my kids was doing half time Auskick. The crows have been poor but the dogs are fast and use murph u incredibly well.

If it was at Etihad is be very worried. They are building a very quick team and roughhead and talus are very good

Danger game? Hawthorn beat them by 10+ goals, if we are legit then we should not have a problem

 

[The Swans Blog]

Dogs are great on their fast patch but woeful away from it. Should win this one comfortably, especially with the bigger and stronger midfield and better forwards.

 

[The King!]

Danger game? Hawthorn beat them by 10+ goals, if we are legit then we should not have a problem

With no bontempelli wallis Boyd

But i do agree we should beat them if we are good

 

[RUNVS]

Given the type of forward line that the Western BUlldogs have I think Rampe and Laidler are going to be extra important if we want to beat them.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Bulldogs like GWS have nothing to lose as nobody expects them to win so they play fearless football.

 

[The King!]

Hopefully the media builds them up then

Hard not to like the way they play

Out:heeneey

In:mitchell

Even if heeney is fit,he has been worked over by oppositin,he could use a rest

He kicked 4 goals last round.... lets not get to ahead of ourselves

The season is a marathon not a sprint. The dockers were into him physically from the get go and looked to have picked up a knock in the game.

As good as he is, we have to remember he is only 18 and we need to look after him

So one poor game and we drop him? Hardly looking after him

Not saying drop. Rest him. No seniors no reserves. Week off footy to help keep fresh. We need him strong in september and pacing him is the way to go imo

If he has a injury/niggle sure rest him but there is no need to rest him just for the sake of it.

Fair enough

If he is fit he plays though imo

Its only round 5

The kid got wrapped around a post last week and had been tackling like a maniac. Last week he was iceing his knees and this week it was ankle. He has to be sore. No way would horse make the sub so early otherwise
