Win by 4 goals, drop five players. Our inability to have a consistent line-up all year has managed to get us into the top 8 so hey, lets not mess with a winning formula!
Although in fairness to our selection committee the In's aren't too shabby.
It was a good win last week over Carlton who pressed us all game up until that final quarter when we managed to pull away. I'd very much like us to win via a good old thrashing now & again and while most of people might say tomorrow is that opportunity it's a pause to remember they beat the Giants and are only 1 win out of the 8. We can't afford to give the Saints even a sniff, because they need this win badly - so boot to throat lads (but not in a Toby Greene way) and lets get this one done and absolutely 100% ensure we give them no hope from the opening bounce. Games like these are the ones we must win and win well! After a pasting by the media & some upset fans this the Saints have a lot to play for. They'll want to win against the Swans knowing a game against Adelaide to follow and two wins would see them into the Bye very nicely thank you very much. That's why I'm expecting them to come out with all guns blazing tomorrow afternoon.
The key to a Swans win tomorrow is pressure, pressure, pressure and we know when we bring our best pressure we win games.
Hickey returns in time to joust with Paddy Ryder in the middle, which is going to be a fascinating battle and one we need to come out on top. I'm really keen to see Amartey's work when Hickey is off the ground, Joel needs to break even here at a minimum in the middle and a couple of goals.
The midfield itself will be an interesting battle and we need to assert our supremacy to ensure our forwards have every opportunity. We can expect Parker to get some attention as they'll think they're in with a chance to win the midfield as its probably the best area in which they feel they can match us.
Heeney was on fire last week so if someone wearing a Saint's guernsey isn't following Heeney like a 2nd shadow I'd be very surprised. This spells opportunity for our other forwards such as Hayward, McLean or Wicks and we need them to take full advantage of it. Buddy will chip in as he usually does and providing we keep our eyes lowered and are smart with our inside 50 kicks we should win this battle in the forward 50.
GO BLOODS
INS: Joel Amartey,Logan McDonald,Robbie Fox,Tom Hickey
