Game Day 2024 Preliminary Final vs Sydney

[FrankDrebin]

Have spent most of the day at the Adelaide Oval today.

Damn it's making it drag

Will drag even more once you realise its an away game...

 

[El_Scorcho]

We're 100% good enough. We just need to bring the same pressure we brought last week and take our chances going inside 50.

So this popped up on my Facebook memories today... good to see our kicking hasn't improved over the years, but hopefully tonight we can kick better than that night!

 

[Steve Dore]

I'll be surprised if our players turn up this week. They play for Hinkley, not the club, and with Hinkley's contract now guaranteed they have nothing to play for.

Sydney by 23.

Hoping I'm wrong.

Just looking at that graphic when did Phil Walsh fill in as coach? Was it in 2014 or when he was under Choco.

Final home and away game in 2001.

It was in 2001, filling in for Choco when Fos died.

 

[Bevoman]

He’s been negative for years and we have been shit for years. Might be a good omen

Port by 87

Port by 19: TAB paying $3.80 for a win under 39 points, last weeks is was $2.80 against the Hawks

 

[Macca19]

I've managed to get this whole way without being nervous at all.

Who knows what will happen tonight. Fingers crossed

 

[ElectricG]

I have never been this nervous for a game

 

[ClintEastwood]

Not really nervous, just vaguely uneasy, and a bit disconnected. Weird feeling.

We will know in the first five minutes where the Swans have a history of poor first quarters

 

[davesnothere]

What's an acceptable time to start drinking?

It's always 5 o'clock somewhere.

 

[Willsy10]

this isn't a free hit, this is a must hit.

 

[Willsy10]

It's always 5 o'clock somewhere.

i thought the saying was 12 o'clock

 

[JimmyBC]

the Big Panthers Club

Where are you m7 the party pies are nearly all gone

 

[ibd77]

Lol i was quietly confident until i saw this. We're losing by 70+ and this post will have 400 replies before midnight

Anyone know how Hinkley goes on his own milestone matches?

 

[Ralph Lorenz]

After continually getting to this point of the season, these prelims become your grand final. It's hard to believe there's another level above this.

 

[Pappagallo]

We're 100% good enough. We just need to bring the same pressure we brought last week and take our chances going inside 50.

I think the smaller SCG works in our favour wrt our pressure game, both our press and the manic attack on the man that we saw last week. It’s probably the one ground in the league where our style would be sustainable.

Certainly not discounting the Swans but I think we’re in with a bigger chance than people are giving us atm.

 

[Port_Girl_92]

It is significantly wider than adl oval. Be harder to keep them skinny like we did the Hawks.

Sydney won’t be beaten until the very end tonight - a 5 or 6 goal lead will mean very little.

BS if we get 6 goals in front they’re toast.

 

[Zorbasan]

it will be a 15 goal turnaround from last game.

 

[Doctor Feel]

I want to win, but i'm so extremely guarded about it. I won't have any emotions until we're showing we are actually a chance to win, then i'll be on it ready to get annoyed again. Certainly not nervous though.

Chances are we'll know within a few minutes whether we can win or not.

Port by 87

It is a bit surprising Nostradamus phychic powers have come up with a Port win tonight.
I’m a bit worried considering his strike rate is equal to Ken winning preliminary finals.
