No way Murdoch goes out on the back of one bad game. Motlop goes well before himI agree with you on almost every point. Need S. Selwood to go to Kennedy though. Blicavs has to tag another mid as well. Just not sure which one! Buzza to do the relief rucking.
How I want the team to line up:
IN: Buzza, Menzel, Lang and Cockatoo
OUT: Kolodjashnij (calf), C. Guthrie (calf), Parsons (ankle) and Murdoch (omit)
B: Bews, Lonergan, Henderson
HB: Stewart, Taylor, Tuohy
C: Duncan, Dangerfield, Mackie
HF: Lang, Hawkins, Motlop
F: Cockatoo, Buzza, Menzel
R: Smith, J. Selwood, S. Selwood
Int: Blicavs, Menegola, Parfitt, Z. Guthrie
Emg: Stanley, Murdoch and Thurlow
Don't think we can pull it off, but I'll remain quietly hopeful.
- Buzza, Lang and Cockatoo all in for their pressure. Just have to roll the dice with Cockatoo. I know it's modern day footy, but just leave him in the pocket to do his thing (chase and crumb goals: something we've been missing all year!)
- Can't take too many guys under injury clouds in to a final, hence dropping Kolodjashnij. We don't really need him in defence, and he's not much of a winger. Similar reason for dropping/resting Parsons and Murdoch (slight injuries in game against Richmond).
- Too many tall guys in the backline = Mackie to the wing ala 2006/2007.
- Lonergan to Franklin, Taylor to Reid, Henderson to Sinclair.
- Hawkins to play more as a CHF again, dragging Grundy away from our goals. Isolate Buzza/Menzel on Melican.
- Need someone in the forward line to play defensively on Rampe and/or Lloyd. Can't let them intercept and run out of our forward line so easily. Can Lang do this? Where's Jarad Rooke?
expecting 55kThat won't include MCC members (23k) or corporates, series tickets etc so that's 21k left of probably only 60-65k available, which sounds about right. I'd expect a crowd of 60-65k there.
55k + MCC?expecting 55k
That was what was in the game day guide email thing sent out today.55k + MCC?
Otherwise, that's shocking
Sounds like the email I got today.That was what was in the game day guide email thing sent out today.
First time I've ever looked at it, it also tells us our official hashtag..
MCC are predicting 65,000 and they're usually pretty good.
That's irrelavent.
But if you're there often enough, you should be winning your fair share. We don't, and quite simply it's because we shit ourselves when the heat goes on. And the heat is always on in the finals......hence our record
55k total55k + MCC?
Otherwise, that's shocking
Murda deserves another chance. He's been ok all along this year except for his goal kicking. Cocky won't play. He's not fit. It's a cut throat final and we cannot carry players who are not 100%. Agree the outs of Parsons, Guth and Kolo. Ins should be Lang, Menz and BuzNo way Murdoch goes out on the back of one bad game. Motlop goes well before him
Love to see that but won't happen.Lol at people thinking Motlop will get dropped
Might be a good omen for Friday night - and considering its Andrew Mackies last game - and 2 of the Swans stars are now Franklin and Kennedy
I can remember in that fantastic 11 straight wins against the Hawks - there was one game - where in the last qtr ( because of injuries ) Mackie was playing full back on Franklin - and with about 3-4 minutes to go ( scores either level or less than a kick in it ) a very young Josh Kennedy ( then playing for Hawthorn )- got the ball 40 metres from goal - handpassed to Franklin on the run ( looked a certain Hawthorn goal ) and Mackie put a sensational tackle on Franklin - who was caught holding the ball
Id love someone to put the vision of that up - might be a good luck charm - seeing its Mackies last game - and that Franklin and Kennedy are now playing for the Swans
We have to play Cocky. It'll be 7 weeks on from a minor hamstring injury. He's got to be right to go by now. If he pings it again so be it but he's too important to us to leave out because of the risk of injury. So I'd go Cockatoo and Menzel for Parsons and C Guthrie.

We played the Bombers again 2w later in 89, and at one stage in the last Q, 106 points up, eventually won by 94. Biggest turnaround seen. GAS and Buddha simply superb. Sadly this year, our 2 best- Danger and Joel appear cooked.I remember us losing a final to the Bombers by 76 points....from there we made the GF.....
We will test them at the very least.
