Game Day Rd 2: Sydney v Essendon

[Kirkswan]

Finally, game day is here!!! Go Swans!

I'm tipping us in close one by about 13 because I have absolutely no idea but lots, and lots of hope!!!

Cheer! Cheer!

Well I'll be watching from home, didn't get a ticket from the draw

Been pouring all night so hopefully the SCG drains well. Not sure how that forward line is gonna go but guess there's only one way to find out. I'm not sure expecting a great game standards so far all over the place.

So grab a win lads, and no injuries because there's next to no time for recovering in a short season.

It's been so long I have no expectations for today's game. Just looking forward to seeing the swannies play.

 

[Angry Red Bull]

My enthusiasm is dulled a little by PA thumping Adelaide. Now without Naismith and Buddy I think it will be a challenge. But at some point we rebound I just hope it is now. I think both Mills and Heeney go elite this year and that should drive things

For those that waited 85 days HERE IT IS!!!

 

[Punts]

Stop there run of hb (saad and McKenna) etc and will go close to wining

Our midfield is the area the game will be won like usual, no buddy brilliance

Mccartin has to make a contest and not let him Hurley run a muck

Young front half have to put pressure on

 

[The King!]

sinclair needs to win the ruck battle

i think we can win

hope they show the local crowd noise even if it is small, better than canned

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Bloods to win with a late Heeney goal, sealing the deal.

Wouldn't that be great? Another last minute goal game win. Heh.

 

[Olian]

Poured down early this morning but is clearing away to a nice sunny day. Ball
maybe a little greasy but hopefully a decent game. Anything better than what was dished up on Thursday would be nice.

Excited. Given the level of play we’ve seen so far this round, I don’t think we’re that far off from the norm so we are every chance to win this.

Sinkers has had a long period off to get himself right, hopefully he can make an impact

This season is all about discipline and we all know that’s something Horse has drilled into the players so Swans by 20

 

[Del198236]

Wouldn't that be great? Another last minute goal game win. Heh.

as exciting as close games with the bombers are... I'd be very content to watch a stress free 6+ goal win
Heeney to kick a bag
Mcinerney to kick his first
Sinkers to win the ruck.. and
Rampe to come up with the sledge of the season

Rampe to come up with the sledge of the season

Ramps would make a great "scale new heights" BF poster.

 

[SwansProudly]

The mighty to win.

May our young ones run free with the Bloods spirit and enjoy themselves (as much as we enjoy watching them).

Please can it be > 18 points - there is no ICU in the Eurobodalla shire (NSW south coast).

This is the sort of match where Sinclair will be best on field

He has form against Essendon.

Remember that final they played here in 2017 when they got wrecked by Sinclair and Dean Towers?

 

[Superstar swan]

Can’t wait to see the boys run out again.

really want heeney to back up what I think was his best game to date. With buddy’s injuries, it’s crucial he takes the step and becomes the most influential player at our club

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Pretty crazy season should be more than 1/2 way done instead we are in June and its round 2

I'll do my best.

We marked everything in that game was possibly the best display of aerial marking i have seen from us.

Looking forward to the game. Hope we continue the attacking mindset for 4 quarters. Swans win by 16 points

what a great start to the day for both sets of supporters King and Brereton commentating GWS North game

We have the Seven crew

 

[caesar88]

We're gonna get stuck with Basil...

I think it will be a close one as per usual and will be decided in the dying seconds and I can't take it
