Unofficial Preview Round 6 Early Thoughts - Sydney vs Melbourne

[SBD Gonzalez]

Initially, there were certainly some worries about what motivated him in the job. Money is what made him take it, but would that be enough to keep him motivated. Turns out he's looking the opposite of Blight at St Kilda, seems to love being on AFL 360 and throws himself into community initiatives often. All in a red and blue polo shirt. I see why he was so valuable to the Swans, he teaches the players to not only play football, but what a positive impact that they can have on the people and city around them. If we start getting belted he may get cold feet, but I think it was a matter of getting him back into coaching under the guise of a succession plan that counted. Maybe the addiction is back...

In short, we love him. He's a top bloke.

Here's an article you might like.

Like I said earlier, we love him too.

Just don't get too close. He might try to give you a copy of Paul Roos and Tami Roos (PhD)'s magnificent opus, "Sport is Life, Life is Sport".

This price seems a little high:

Paul Roos is such a massive flog sometimes.

LOL made specially to prevent sore throats

Cork tipped?

 

[Gongswan]

I wouldn't say that just yet, they are going better than us

Dollars to donuts Norf will fall apart at some point

very cloudy and windy down here in melbourne!

 

[PaulRoos]

Getting closer to a good team on paper. A coupla runs into a few of the underdones should have us making even the best teams in the comp watching our games.

We need to put the Dees away in the first quarter, build on that all game and emphatically flog them. Send Roosy home thinking why the 'F' did I think coaching Melbourne was a good idea. Love the man but he needs a lesson in "going back on your word should bite your arse ... and hard"

Swans by at least two goals a quarter = 48 plus.

 

[DeadlyAkkuret]

Swans by at least two goals a quarter = 48 plus.

That's bare minimum. I'm expecting a 10 goal win at least.

 

[PaulRoos]

That's bare minimum. I'm expecting a 10 goal win at least.

Agree and would like a blowout result. Let's not forget that we are underdone, still learning how to get the best outta Lance and Roosy knows more about our/Horess' techniques than any other coach ...

Slight shower just then but nothing on radar and no more coming , no excuses will be perfect weather for Footy tonight at the G. 4points and no injuries , go swans

 

[db swannie]

Nathan Jones to get 30+ possessions again (I feel sorry for that guy) and the Swans SHOULD get home by no less than 50. If we somehow lose this game it's curtains for our season.

I honestly don't care about the margin this season has been so strange it's impossible to know for sure expecting a scrappy win.

Can someone tell me, is the area behind the goals at the Ponsford end general admission...I usually sit on level 2 but couldn't be bothered with the upgrade and am not sure where the GA at the G is these days?
