Game Day Round 5 2018: Swans vs. Crows

[SilentHunter_]

If there's ever been an AFL game that we just should not lose then this would be it. Adelaide are pretty much playing their SANFL side but they do have some tall timber that could potentially cause trouble. However I doubt that. Anyways Go Swans and get the job done for our first FNF football appearance of the year.

Rohan to kick 5 goals and the Swans to romp it home by 60+ points.

 

[Punts]

Really shouldn’t be a hassle imo

They have a shocking injury list

Parker bog

 

[DeadlyAkkuret]

Originally had us winning by 4-7 goals but now Aliir is out I have Adelaide by over 100 points. Aliir is also allowed to kick Horse in the balls for every goal that Marsh lets his opponent kick.

I don’t feel I’m being ott with this prediction.

 

[Troystenvic]

Im not confident but the 4 year old tells me with confidence a WIN. She has got them all right so far. No reason to doubt her. Lock it in.

 

[Number37]

Should win easily, but the bullshit frees and blatant cheating by the umpires will be specifically targeted at keeping the game close for as long as possible.

 

[CD__]

Good chance for JPK to bounce back, will be interesting to keep an eye on how much time he spends in the middle this week.

 

[caesar88]

They really owe us nothing, but I will feel kinda despirited if Kennedy and Hannebery come out and struggle to impact the game again. Especially against a midfield that doesn’t have a single All Australian running through there and is there for the taking...

 

[MarkP]

Easy win.

Rest is window dressing. Mids will dominate after quarter time.

 

[Ticky009]

Last time we predicted a win this easy Hawks beat us and Owen was best on ground.

Just get the points boys and no injuries.

 

[Olian]

All the stars are aligned
1. Longmire is coaching.
2. Aliir can’t get a game after producing the best 5 disposal game you will ever see last week.
3. Rohan is back to double Aliirs output from last week.
4. Adelaide’s forward line is really tall.
5. Crows with a few injuries are also resting a player.

Swans by 50.

 

[brad cooper]

Gonna be tough to win without Aliir but should get the job done.

Having played 4 of last years finalists to hopefully be 4 and 1 after 5 games will be a great start.

Heeney will dominate this game tonight and start to be talked about as one of the competitions elite.

 

[buddy2fernando]

Good luck tonight guys. Is Hewett going to tag now there's no Sloane?

 

[brad cooper]

Good luck tonight guys. Is Hewett going to tag now there's no Sloane?

Hoping he takes Laird.

 

[Superstar swan]

Cant wait to get last day of tafe over for this one

 

[Punts]

Weather looks to have changed to sunny and 25 with <1ml

Perfect

 

[The Gong]

Looking forward to the main board gameday thread.

If Buddy kicks ten goals the Swans won't win the flag because we're too reliant on him.

If Buddy doesn't fire the Swans won't win the flag without Buddy firing.

Swans by 32.

 

[SwansProudly]

Please, oh please TV - on the ground/rooms commentators:
1. Please do *not* interview Gary Rohan.
2. If you are really, really stupid, please do *not* ask him how he feels.

If yes to 1 or 2 I will throw whatever is close at hand, be it laptop, cup of tea at the TV!

 

[The Gong]

P.S. I hope JPK and Hanners get some form out of this. For a team who "prides themselves on clearances" we're not setting the world on fire at the moment. You can't keep letting our defenders have to deal with 60 forward 50 entries a game. I know this is nowhere near a full strength Crows side but they need to take the chance to get some confidence back in their games by belting them.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Please, oh please TV - on the ground/rooms commentators:
1. Please do *not* interview Gary Rohan.
2. If you are really,really stupid, plase do *not* him how he feels.

If yes to 1 or 2 I will throw whatever is close at hand, be it laptop, cup of tea at the TV!

You know its coming...

 

[secondary]

Please don't ruin our kids too much!
Good luck to Gary Rohan too, I'll be cheering for him.

I saw they're doing a Gibbo Buddy interview.

 

[BloodySwan]

Really hoping to see our midfield let loose tonight. They've been grinding their way through games lately but I love watching them when they work their way through the middle effectively

 

[LukeParkerno1]

To think we are 3-1 without our midfield winning a game shows how good we could be.

Midfield to finally stand up. Swans by 34.

 

[pickettline]

I hope that Gary Rohan plays well. The football world has put allegiances aside and is behind you.

 

[db swannie]

Still quite a bit of talent in the Crows line up. A lot of people thought we were going to pummel the Dishlickers, and look what happened there.

TBH I don't think we play the SCG very well these days. Buddy seems cramped for leading space and our forward line looks messy. I think the best game we played this year was at the new Booiaco ground in WA.

Maybe I just have a sore throat and I'm grumpy because I may not be able to go
