Loved the games of the middle tier players. Dyl, Braeden with good starts to the season. Buddy 2 goals in opening two minutes. Errol with a beauty from distance. Ladhams a good physical presence. Even Matty Roberts got some touches in the end! Lots of upside - Good to beat a team that's...

Sydney Swans vs Geelong Cats Friday, March 25, Sydney Cricket Ground Sydney and Geelong enter round two having both notched encouraging wins to start the season. The Swans beat the Giants in a typically hard fought stoush at Homebush, while the Cats flogged Essendon by ten goals. Hard to...

The home and away season has drawn to a close and at the start of the year that’s where plenty of us thought the season would finish up. But for the Swans, who finish 6th on the ladder, the season is still very much alive as we go into an elimination final against our cross town rivals. Few...

A battle weary Swans outfit limp into the final round of the home and away season against the suns, one of those second tier teams that have an inexplicably good record against us. And Stewie Dew will be licking his lips at the opportunity to take on his old club who will likely be without...

As we go into the penultimate round of the home & away season, spare a thought for Ticky009 who's recovering from surgery. Let's hope the boys give you something to smile about today, Tick! Now, on to the game. Funny old fixture this one. It's deadly important that we maintain the killer...

Why couldn't we play these guys in April or May? Bring in Mills and Warner. Swans by 15.

After 5 wins on the trot, and a gutsy and exhilarating win against the Bombers, the Swans are the form team of the comp. And they finally got reward by jumping up to 5th on the ladder. However, with Port hanging on against the Giants, that elusive top 4 spot remains just out of reach. So the...

Bad news. On your keyboard you'll find a letter between g and j. Well, as of yesterday mine doesn't work. So I must write now omitting said letter. It ain't easy. Good win against Freo. Played okay. Won easily. Got a MOTY contender. Move on. Essendon are playing at time of writing and are up...

Such a crazy time… We have so much momentum and are playing our best footy of the year. JPK, Parks & Buddy proving the old guard still has it. George, Lizard (and even Bell!) are showing you never write off a whipping boy. Big Tom Hickey is running and slotting them from 50. Errol is golden...

Don't get too excited boys and girls... A couple of weeks back one poster claimed we would only win two more games this season. Looks like it's LLLLLLL from here on in.:D:D:D:D Me, I'm a little more optimistic. Perhaps there's a bit of South Melbourne ju-ju coming our way. Onwards to...

Well, we've been dreading it. But by God, after slaughtering the Eagles it's time to dream! We're read hot against teams in the 8. We're loving our trip down south. And we've got the dogs firmly in our sights. I think we can do it, especially at Marvel. Get around them boys and girls! Swans...

We match up well. We play the ground well (West Coast don’t) And we’ve won 3 of our last 4 against the Eagles. In a tough stretch this is one we win. swans by 21.

As recommended by swanssince2002 , love to hear your thoughts on the season so far. Feel free to cut and paste the following ... THE GOOD - THE BAD MVP - MOST IMPROVED - BIGGEST DISAPPOINTMENT - BEST KID - HOW FAR WILL WE GO -

Alright. I've had a couple of days to throw my tantrum and step away from the game to cool off. The Hawks game was a crapfest, and it's easy to go into an away game against Port with trepidation. But hell, I think we could all use a shot of positivity. So here goes. Ten reasons we can/will...

The Swans hobble into the last game before the bye against Hawthorn - a team who have just enjoyed something we could really use... a rest. Big Tom Hickey's playing on one leg. Heeney's dodgy ankle has flared up again. Bud's just happy to make it onto the paddock. And the youthful crew of...

Well, I never expected us to turn at 7-4 at the half way point of the season. And I reckon plenty of saints fans didn’t expect their team to turn at 5 and 6. But here we are. The Swans are firmly embedded in the 8. We’ve had some huge wins, including knocking over the Lions, Cats and Tigers...

After busting our backsides to come home with a big fat nothing from Perth, the Swans return to the ground they play their worst football at to tackle the stuttering navy blues. The Freo game was a bastard, really. In it for most of the match, we play one dud quarter and it's enough to give up...

Edited Sunday am. In a stretch of winnable games this one might test the high flying redbirds. Up there with the tests we had against Geelong, the lions and of course Richmond. This team likes a test. The win against the Pies was scratchy and played in tricky conditions. This week we'll have a...

Swans coming off one of those losses you somehow feel okay about. Pies scraping a win against the dreadful North Melbourne. We might be on different sides of the ledger but there's a clear favorite in this one and it ain't Collingwood. Match the attitude we brought to the Dees game this...

If we can win at the SCG, we can win anywhere! Big game this. They're a bloody good team but the giant killing Swans have already accounted for the Lions, Tigers and Cats. The Dees are due for a fall and I reckon we can get it done. Love watching us play on the MCG too! Swans by 15.

Too easy to put the boot in after an insipid performance. The truth is we're a young team beset by injuries. And everyone of us expected the ups and downs. Well, we've had the down. Now the up. We've got a good record against the cats. And a good shellacking by the Suns might be just the wake...

The young swans are winning, losing, do amazing and terrible things, but learning every step of the way. Suns away present a great chance to reboot our free-flowing game style. Swans by 38.

I know it’s early, but every time I open the preview thread we seem to win. So I simply can’t trust you buggers to do it. I expect we’ll be too good for a wounded Giants team past its best. Errol to straighten up his kicking and boot 3. 3 for Logan 3 more forBud. swans to get the job done by...

I know it’s early, but I’ve started the last couple of these and it seems to be working pretty well so far. Come to play and we’re a good shot at going 4-0. Wicksy, Logan, Paps, Heeney and Bud to share the spoils. Swans by 30.

Big test for Richmond this week. Tired of winning. Bored of collecting silverware. Sick to death of that bloody Tigers’ song. And now they come up against a team packed with their favorite AFL superstars. Dusty rates Errol as the finest ball user in the competition. Jack Riewoldt claims...

Just keep playing those kids!

I’m clearly struggling with patience in the lead up to the season. Made a list of all teams from my personal favorite (Swans) to least favorite. I’d be interested to see how others rank them. The only criteria is how much you love/like a club... Swans Lions Saints Suns Eagles Cats Blues...

Sydney Swans vs Western Bulldogs Marvel Stadium Saturday March 23 9:25am Hamburg time The Swans don’t mind an away game first up. Last year they ventured west to take on the Eagles at the newly minted Optus Stadium. It was expected Sydney would struggle at West Coast’s shiny new fortress...

Shithouse Swans blow chance at 0-7 start. Sydney Swans coach John Longmire today lamented his team’s inability to secure an “Owen 7” start to the season, despite pulling together a string of shithouse games. “We’ve been pretty shithouse,” Longmire explained in Sydney this morning. “It just...

Sydney Swans verses Gold Coast Suns Saturday, July 8 Sydney Cricket Ground. Disclaimer I’m in Corsica with my girls and my dog, Cricket the Nova Scotia duck tolling retriever. There’s a photo of her enjoying yesterday's swim below. To be honest, the last thing I want to do is write a...
