Hopefully he gets through training. I reckon he will play.

Good to see Ling moving well, right behind Heeney.

Nice to see a few positives Ling especially for his own sake. Must have been frustrating

I wonder how far Tucker is away. He did his ACL around 12 months ago now so all going well he should be doing a preseason about now hopefully.

 

[Tedeski]

9th most capped Swan of all-time and will very soon be 8th.

Amazing effort to become a p'ship player & captain of his team in a career he perhaps wasn't destined to have, such is his pedigree in another sport.
Think Gary Ablett senior, with junior crossing over to rugby.
Well done Kizza for being a real fighter for our club. Still going, nevermind those writing him off even two years ago.All players just need to be fit in order to be at their best. No need to write them off early.

 

[Tedeski]

This will make us.

Swans by 6 points.

I think we've got this by 21 points with a late Tiger goal to make it 15 points.

 

[Thrashor]

Sorry for the intrusion, I am going to the game on Saturday and want to sit near the Swans supporters. At what end will the Swans supporters be?

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

That was actually a pretty good comeback Blue Dye well done.

Sorry Bunkum. I don't play the person. The joint is about footy, our team and how we can move forward.

Southern Cross end.

Hooray

 

[PremiershipTigers]

We can win this game by getting in and under. Missing Rance, Cotchin and ReWo - plus Martin is a one season wonder.
If Parker and Sinclair are out...
Hopefully we don't see

Martin a 1 season wonder?

Check his Brownlow finishes...7th in 2015, 3rd in 2016, we all know what happened in 2017 and 6th in 2018.

MASSIVELY over rated in those votes in 16 and 18. Cotchin was constantly robbed of points in those counts while Dusty got glory for 4 or so flashy inputs on the back of his work. Good player no doubt - not a great one with that year excepted.
Just my opinion.
I'm barfing at the though of listening to Bruce McIvany verbally blowing him for this game tbh. Still it might stop him fantasizing about Florent so that'd be a bonus.

How many Tigers games did you actually see in those years, mate? 2016 he turned games off his own boot. I remember it happening to your mob in fact...

Generally whatever was on normal tv up here.
Not claiming to be an authority on tigers - just think he's been massively over rated, and Cotchin's efforts under rated - by the media in particular.
Stuff like Cotchin laying a tackle, then winning a contested ball and feeding it out - dusty on the outside with a fend and goal - the commentators all kiss his arse (or something more frontal if it is Bruce) - but none of it happens without Cotchin.
You'll find out how good he is over the next how many years he's getting paid I guess. Maybe he'll be as good as his pay packet. I don't think he will be - It's ok if we disagree.

This.

And I think an important compondnt going forward too. So good to see him out there.

If you are going to get offended why come here ? Would you like some kleenex on your way out ?
A Very balanced skilled footballer who is supremely football smart that allows him to cheat forward of the play. And that come straight from the horses mouth of another AFL Midfielder. Now back to your board with you to tell of the blasphemy taking place at our humble abode. Sorry we could not be more welcoming.

 

[Superstar swan]

Season officially over if we lose this because we wont be topping gws

 

[Punts]

What a joke that Clarke got recalled

Absolute dud

Well done Rowbottom

 

[The King!]

Ryan Clarke greeeeaAaaaaat

 

[The King!]

I’d rather dean towers any day over Clarke

 

[TheMase]

Clarke could be back to play a run with role to free up Hewett (maybe).

Or that we have no depth and the list is average

Guy isn’t AFL standard

 

[Jeffers]

Congrats Rowy!

 

[Mick Oxlong]

Happy with that.

Clarke, Rowbottom in for Blakey, McInerney
