The most frustrating game in my decade plus of attending Swans games. Love Sheldrick though.

Feel like we have not had a truly settled side for the whole year, with a lot of different contributors across the list. But now we're headed for the business end of the season, and a slightly unexpected finals run. Very interested to gauge opinion on what our best team is going into the finals...

I recently listened to the MMQB podcast ranking which I disagreed with in a number of areas so thought I would make my own list here and see how it compared. Premise is to rank who you think the top ten quarterbacks will be in the 2019 season, taking into account all of the relevant factors you...

For the first time in a few years we have a legitimate title race on our hands, which has meant the usual drama surrounding the top four race has been relegated to the doldrums of our consciousness. But it's certainly starting to heat up now especially with the fixtures yet to come, most notably...

How has the Ronaldo revelations not been commented on yet? Absolutely awful. I wonder how Juventus/the football community writ large will react. A woman has come out and shed light on an incident from 2009 in Nevada where she claims that Ronaldo sexually assaulted her. I don't think there's any...

Premier League: 1. Man City 2. Liverpool 3. Manchester United 4. Chelsea 5. Tottenham 6. Arsenal 7. West Ham United 8. Leicester City 9. Wolverhampton Wanderers 10. Everton 11. Crystal Palace 12. Burnley 13. Southampton 14. Watford 15. Bournemouth 16. Newcastle United 17. Fulham 18...

I'll volunteer for a big preview, and have it up some time early in the week. Lets go and get it.

Pretty self-explanatory exercise, but I think interesting to gauge the thoughts of all the fans' who have teams heading into the finals. Which team would you least like to see with your season on the line (on a neutral venue)? From the Swans perspective I would say, 1. Hawthorn - Don't think...

Feels like there hasn't been a lot of hype surrounding this years race, at least in comparison to previous years with the likes of Shuey/Heppell and Taylor/Bontempelli. Weitering seemed to be the heavy favourite, but Carlton's poor end to the season and some injuries seem to have halted his...

When: 28th May 7:50pm Where: Sydney Cricket Ground Executive Summary * North. Seven reasons to come to the SCG this Friday night First of all lets start off with some reasons why if you aren't already going to be there this Friday night, you should get down there. 1. It's Friday Night...

Based off the back of this performance, could be anything. Undoubtedly they'll have troughs this season, but they are looking the absolute goods at the moment.

Given the game this week is kind of a boring one, lets try and stimulate some interesting discussion. Who do we think is the best player on the list by the time the 2019 AFL season rolls around. You'd have to say right now the best player title is held by one of Franklin, Parker or Hannebery...

Match of the round, with both teams in good form coming into the clash. Who has more to prove between the two sides? Is it Sydney showing they are still a premiership threat, or is it Adelaide who need to show they are the real deal?

See - Isaac Smith putting his hand up to play tonight. Hawthorn were playing a man down the whole night because of his decision. You'd have to be filthy as a Hawks fan.

How many teams in the AFL are currently sitting well below their own expectations for this season? Quite a few prominent ones in my opinion. 1. Port Adelaide (not much explanation needed) 2. North Melbourne (prelim final last year, topped up with more mature player in order to win a flag...

Fremantle are by far the best side in the competition as it stands thus far. They already have a two game gap on second, and look almost certain to continue to increase their gap over the rest of the competition in the weeks to come. From such a strong foundation, it's hard to see Fremantle...

I'm not just talking about height here. Is there any team in the competition that can say they are as good offensively and defensively as Fremantle. I don't think so. They have depth, hard ball winners, outside receivers, goal kickers and good tacklers. The question really becomes can this...

Next Friday night's game is the blockbuster we've all been waiting for. Can't wait to see the Mighty Tigers up against the Mighty Dees... Meanwhile, the Hawks/Port game clashes with the Freo/Swans game. What an organisation. The AFL everyone.

This is the third year in a row with no Victorian sides in the Grand Final. Next year doesn't look to bright for the Big V either, with the Swans, Hawks and Port all expected to be leading the charge. And after that the rise of the Gold Coast and GWS is imminent. Surely an inquest into this...

Hasn't played more than 3 quarters of football in months, has a history of dodgy hamstrings that could go pop at any time during a game. Many coaches and ex-players have spoken about the dangers of taking unfit players into Grand Finals. Are Hawthorn banking on some sort of emotional lift due...

Hard to go past Ben McGlynn for mine. He's not without a chance too.

Is that really a good enough reason to hold the Grand Final there every year, no matter who finishes on top of the ladder? For all the talk of equalisation these days, this is often a topic that gets overlooked. If those championing equalisation want to be taken seriously then they have to...

Have they now missed their premiership window? What can we expect from them in 2015?

Title says it all. 1. Chelsea 2. Manchester City 3. Liverpool 4. Arsenal 5. Manchester United 6. Tottenham 7. Everton 8. Swansea 9. Stoke City 10. Southampton 11. Newcastle United 12. Aston Villa 13. West Ham 14. Hull City 15. Leicester City 16. Crystal Palace 17. Sunderland 18. QPR 19. West...

I think it's time. We have a plethora of key position forwards in the team at the moment, and a tall defender is certainly a position of need for us with limited depth in that area. He's shown that he's capable of playing well in the backline and has excelled when required to go back and pinch...

Absolute liability tonight and providing the team with very little. And since his first game he has really struggled to make any significant impact upon the team. Can they afford to carry a player in such an important position throughout the finals? I'd say absolutely not. Do they have another...

When: 1:45pm Saturday 16th March Who should we rest for this one? I'd be inclined to say Goodes and Jack are two certainly we should rest. Maybe even a Shaw. We'll win by around 45, but we do need to win by a lot more in order to make up the percentage on Hawthorn. Honestly we should be...

"People make far too much of 6 day breaks. Truth is if you're struggling to cope with a 6 day break in this day and age it probably means you're just having a bad year. No excuses." - Ted Richards. I think Richards has a good insight into the preparation that goes into football games. It's not...
