Does anyone have any real superstitions they follow before gameday?
Luck scarfs? Certain Roads they have to cross? Black cats you will be placing in front of Franklins house?
Is there anything you will be doing this week to make sure the Swans win?

Mine are
I have to wear my members swans scarf on Monday, Friday and Saturday
I have to wear a regular scarf on Wednesday and Thursday (Can't be worn on Saturday is bad luck on match day.)
Will be wearing my lucky beanie on Saturday (Stroke of luck I found it.. wore it to the 2005 grand final... We moved a few weeks after this and I thought it had been lost... Last week it was found in a box, Wore it on Friday and look at what happened...)
And perhaps more importantly... When ever I sit in the great southern stand at the MCG we seem to lose... But every memory I have of sitting in the Ponsford stand seems to be really positive... (Am sitting in the Posford stand on Saturday...)

Will be wearing my swans scarf I have owned since I was six years old and wore it during the 05 granny. My 2005 Premieship scarf however is just nothing but bad luck, every time I wear the bloody scarf to a match we always seem to lose this includes the essendon loss last year after Goodes missed the set shot after the siren and more importantly the 06 grand final. I will not be wearing that scarf on saturday.

Also seem to remember AC/DC's It's a long way to the top being the theme song for channel 10's finals coverage in 05. Guess what song is playing during the This Is Greatness ads this year.
 
For omens i believe someone posted in another thread (not sure which)

Rd 1, 2005 we won by 63. We also won by 63 Rd 1, 2012.
Scored 96 points in 2005 Prelim against St Kilda. Scored 96 points as well in the Prelim on Friday.
Finished 3rd at the end of H&A in 2005. Finished 3rd at the end of 2012 H&A as well.

Does the Malthouse comment draw comparisons with the ones Andy D made in 2005?
