Preview 2016 Round 19 Sydney Swans v Freo Dockers "Craig Nettelbeck Cup"

[MarkP]

we are good at football.

fremantle are not good at football.

enough said

I present to you last weeks game as evidence we are barely ok at football at this point in time

 

[SBD Gonzalez]

Nope.

Last 5 at subiaco (freo + wc) Swans are 1-4
Last 20 at subiaco Swans are 7-13.

There was a run of 4 straight wins a few years back you may be remembering.

So.... Even though it's only hapless Freo, does our ordinary record at Subi officially elevate this clash to the status of..........

[SBD Gonzalez]

DANGER GAME?????!!!!!

 

[miggs]

DANGER GAME?????!!!!!

Safer than bank interest... again

 

[The King!]

DANGER GAME?????!!!!!

Nah we will win in a high scorer

78-43

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Nah we will win in a high scorer

78-43

First to 10 goals.

 

[Carolyn]

will we finally score 100+?

 

[SBD Gonzalez]

will we finally score 100+?

Combined Swans + Dockers score, yes, definitely.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

will we finally score 100+?

Does it really matter if we score 80-90 and keep the opposition to 40-50, 100 looks nice on the scoreboard i agree.

 

[The King!]

We just need %

This danger game nonsense needs to stop. Fremantle are an absolute heap of s**t, and if they had the ability to "lift" for an arbitrary games figure for their captain then surely they would have demonstrated some skill in the preceding 17 games. If we lose it will be shambolic

I think some have this nervousness around the team it's a peculiar feeling hard to describe.

Not sure if sarcastic - back interest is negative in some countries. Hardly safe.

Thats not quite as motivating as say Al Pacino in Any Given Sunday. But i agree

 

[RW]

Thats night quite as motivating as say Al Pacino in Any Given Sunday. But i agree

Same. I said before that I thought they would lift for this game and I still do, but we should still win this game well regardless.

its to be expected with such a young side

 

[kelpie_X]

If Sandilands comes back against us, we will know 2016 is definitely not our year.

he is being talked about coming back over here this week

 

[The King!]

We arent that young

We will win

 

[Superstar swan]

really want bud to kick a bag this week

I would have said the same about Brissy earlier. Carlton last week. Nothing is an easy win for us. We've proven it time & again.

We SHOULD belt the stuffing out of them but the fear is there that we'll play at their level & lose. Based on past performamces this is a fear that has substance and shouldn't be ignored.

Yeah we should obliterate them. Yeah they've played like crap. It shouldn't strike fear into our minds unless we play well below par ourselves (Brissy, Tigers, Carlton).

How can he do that with Zac 'Wrecking Ball' Dawson shadowing him?

Mwahahahaha

*weeps*

 

[Jack Lord]

Yeah. I kinda want him to kick a bag every week.

 

[SlingshotFooty]

% is going to be big in this one. Need to pour it on because everyone else in that pack of 2-7 will be trying to do the same. That loss really hurt the Dogs to the Saints. Hopefully our only scare like that to finish the season will have been Carlton. After Rich/WB/Hawthorn we've enough enough close losses...

 

[connolly]

Hopefully we will not play that weak hopeless Lloyd on the half back line. He has just re-signed at what must have been for a packet of Cornflakes because his game against Carlton was so ordinary.
"The former rookie-listed Swan gathered 28 possessions at almost 80 per cent efficiency and had nine rebound 50s against the Blues."
Really surprised he wasn't de-listed and put up for a transfer auction with the proceeds donated to the Salvation Army.
