Let's just bloody do it
win by 7 points

RIP Graeme John

 

[Big Blood]

Redemption time

 

[Punts]

13 points our way

Mills best on with Blakey

 

[Punts]

KPF better stand up

 

[caesar88]

Still think we'll see Florent in the mids. Not saying I want it to happen. I hope we go full contested in there. All the hard nuts.

Hawkins and Blicavs are the worries. Miers and Dangerfield the secondary worries who will benefit most from the former two.

Gonna need a good night in the coaches box from Horse & co. I'll back them in.

 

[sataris]

If they treat this like a grand final they'll be down 60 in the first quarter.

If they treat this as a meaningless H & A game (which it is) they should win by about 2 goals.

 

[Jewelsbon]

If they treat this like a grand final they'll be down 60 in the first quarter.

If they treat this as a meaningless H & A game (which it is) they should win by about 2 goals.

I reckon this game is about the furthest a H & A game can get from being meaningless

 

[MR0808]

I just want to see us take them on for once. Like we did in round 2 last year

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Test Danger ribs. Gus the perfect missile.

Crunch their snipers, fairly. Make them hurt on the scoreboard.

Wipe grins off their faces.

Win by Graeme John.(7)

 

[the hypnotoad]

pffft ... another game day, another 171-point win

 

[MR0808]

pffft ... another game day, another 171-point win

Anything less than that now seems pointless really

Hopefully the coaches have learnt a few lessons. They need to step it up.

The midfield is where we have been belted, this needs to be the focus and we have been better last couple of weeks.

 

[ErrolisGoldun]

Want to see us on from the first minute until the last. Hit Geelong hard in the first 10mins and get the jump on them before they know they have landed in Sydney.

We need to match their physicality and not take any backwards steps.

All to play for tonight, hope we continue the momentum of last few weeks!

 

[MF]

Results aside, if we don't come out breathing fire and ready to physically smash them at every single contest then we may as well pack up the club and start again. Time for some old-school bloods football.

 

[Nuggetz]

Need a big one from Hickey. Tom Stewart also worries me. Hope we put 3 of our biggest mids for the first centre bounce. Show them we're ready to match their physicality from the start.

 

[The King!]

Cats by 40 then

 

[Wazowski]

Who are the 3?
Mills, Parker ?

 

[Swans22]

Rowbottom?

 

[Swans22]

I'm hoping Hayward locks down on Tom Stewart. stop his run and intercept marking. Arguably their most important player.

 

[Swans22]

Not sure if this is the right forum but I need an extra red zone ticket for the game tonight - anyone have any good ideas or have any spare's we can buy? Red zone section is full.
Go Swans

 

[tombomb]

All Mr 'I'm so remorseful' did during the Grand Final was try to pick off players off the ball.

 

[Nuggetz]

Rowbottom?

Rowbottom or heeney. Wouldn't put heeney in the mids as an all game move but just for the initial 10mins so we don't get spooked again

 

[Bloods86]

Rowbottom or heeney. Wouldn't put heeney in the mids as an all game move but just for the initial 10mins so we don't get spooked again

Parker, Rowy, Heeney if you want to hit them hard at the start. Mills is no softy but Heeney tackles as hard as anyone in the league.

 

[Nuggetz]

Not sure if this is the right forum but I need an extra red zone ticket for the game tonight - anyone have any good ideas or have any spare's we can buy? Red zone section is full.
Go Swans

Can't you just rock up if you're a red zone member? Do you have to preregister or something :/?

 

[Old Kenny]

Need a big one from Hickey. Tom Stewart also worries me. Hope we put 3 of our biggest mids for the first centre bounce. Show them we're ready to match their physicality from the start.

Hayward to defend Stewart? Has done that role before.
