Game Day Round 18 Sydney Swans vs Carlton Blues. SCG 13:45

[Troystenvic]

Game day boys and girls.

Congrats to Foote on his senior debut.

Welcome back Heeney

Youngest/least experienced side for yonkers. Hope the kids play well.

*How many times will commentators call us experienced and old and the Blues a young, up and coming side... id say about the margin we win by.

First weather update. Not good about the rain but I like the early update

Midfield shows up and asserts themselves and it could be a good day to see the young bloods pull some shapes.

It won't be a belting (which we need to), but we will do enough to win.

I'm thinking 45 points give and take.

 

[Nteshy]

Have a good feeling about this one, Carlton have gradually faded this season and have not performed well away from home against the best teams.

We should win by plenty. Good insight into the next few years for us regardless of result.

 

[Jack Lord]

Gotta wake up at 5:45am to watch this one. Hope they make it worth my while. Good night all.

 

[Mister B]

Just landed to glorious sunshine. Much better than the shire left behind in Melbourne. Happy game day everyone. We got this.

I look for the FF line of Heeney, Rohan, and Papley to light it up.

Swans by 48.

Have to win otherwise we can kiss the top 4 spot goodbye.

Will be watching it at a pub in Essendon with 5 of my mates- 4 being Carlton supporters. A month ago they were pencilling in this date with a win. Haha a few wins and they were up and about but now since there decline they haven't mentioned it once and even conceded a 10 goal loss the other night.
I have a big feeling we will be on today- a statement to be made.

You wouldn't be a true Swans fan if you weren't.

Swans by 40. Foote to be solid. Cripps to be tall.

Rinse and repeat this line for the rest of the season... a dream run home and we need to get on a streak.

But can we be confident about Carlton at home plz

The most simplistic view is that if we win 9 in a row then the flag is ours.

This shouldn't be too hard. We beat them away from home by 60, Carlton look a bit better since then but surely by not enough to make a huge difference?

 

[Tuco]

Yeesh. They just showed a "classic" game on Foxtel. Carlton running over the top of us with four (?) 4th qtr goals in the wet at the SCG in 2011.

A reminder why we're all touchy about rain in Sydney. Glad we've improved that area of our game these days.

Buddy 7 behinds? Or Swans by 18 goals?
