Dive into the game discussion

 

[JackFlash]

Swans by 50 points

 

[Skipper_]

I think we’re a chance, especially at Marvel, but expecting the Swans to get up by 4-6 goals.

 

[The King!]

Not convinced we are back in form

 

[craffles]

Both sides have been awfully inconsistent but Sydney’s best football is miles ahead of ours. Dons injury list starting to cut deep.

Swans by 70

 

[raskolnikov]

I think we win.

But then again I thought the Liberals would win the election.

 

[Vindicater]

Essendon by 2 points.

 

[Xtreme]

Swans by 1

 

[Zevon]

Essendon by 5 goals

Don’t be fooled by the win over GWS; we’re still not going well at all and I’m genuinely surprised we’re favourites for this one.

 

[The King!]

Essendon by 5 goals

Agree , we were favourites before the GWS win too, odd indeed imo

GWS were favourites actually.

 

[Mr Meow]

Essendon by 5 goals

Don’t be fooled by the win over GWS; we’re still not going well at all and I’m genuinely surprised we’re favourites for this one.

Probably because Essendon are a 1 goal better side than NM, who Sydney beat comfortably at the same venue.

 

[The King!]

GWS were favourites actually.

Sorry I meant when I checked ahead we were favourites for this game before we had played GWS

 

[Mr Meow]

Oh my bad, that makes more sense.

One thing I would say is it tends to be worse getting Essendon early in the year. They can be a soft kill in the second half of seasons. So this is a danger game for Sydney.

I think they should be favourites the way we are travelling.

 

[I Remember Bluey]

I think they should be favourites the way we are travelling.

Being favourites won't help us play any better.

 

[The King!]

Being favourites won't help us play any better.

Will make me feel slightly better when we lose

 

[HirdsTheWord]

swans fans in here thinking they will lose this are taking the absolute piss.

The King! no ones buying it pal

I'm tipping Essendon in a dull game

stop self defeating mate

thats our job

 

[Chief]

Teams are up - see OP.

 

[voorhees]

Sydney to strong - 16p

 

[THE_GUN]

Swans drop this and season is cooked

 

[Ulahoopski]

Merret yet to touch it. That's gotta be a first.

 

[T2B_]

What's wrong with the Swans
