Game Day 2024 Round 08 Swans v GWS @ SCG @ 1:45 PM

[The King!]

yeah, geez, you could see there's been a breakdown between the "idea" and the execution, but the "idea" sucks anyway ... that hollywood makeover they've done on errol does not help ... he looks like someone from pretty in pink, or one of those other john hughes alt-teen 80s fillums

The star wars May 4th things shits me

realise that's grumpy old man.

Should have had Errol as the terminator or something or the running man

As exciting as this game is, it’s not a patch on what times The King! will clock for his 15km run. Will he or won’t he fartlek? Or will he fit it in during the half time break ?

Stay tuned for a thrilling update.

I like fast posters.

Nup, the black swan is just too WA for my taste.

Well, that is where our name 'Swans' was first derived from.

Understand that - but it (the black swan) is the state emblem of WA.

Living in Perth, I just can’t see past that.

 

[Jeffers]

2 downpours incoming.
Then clear after that was sunny when I got here getting gloomy now

[Jeffers]

I hope someone tells Logan to get those jukes out on the lead. Need him
To draw more chopping arm frees.

Yep, but that’s how we got it..from all our WA imports back in the day
Agree though… red is the go!

Parkrun already done

Half mara tomorrow

 

[JackHiscoxWasFast]

In his pre match speech, Horse should tell them if you lose today - you will be forced to play 3 home games at Homebush next year. That’ll fire them up.

Fox sub

 

[tombomb]

Stupid rain is going to hit 20 minutes before the game.

 

[Bloods86]

Fox sub

For Fox sake. That's it, purge the club.

 

[The King!]

Fox sub

Was always him or Wicks so prefer Fox

think he is stiff Rampe jumped past him

 

[Jeffers]

Light showers just hit now. Should go quick

Stupid rain is going to hit 20 minutes before the game.

It’s just starting now. I’m outside the SCG - it’s half-time in the VFLW match - and it is coming down steadily. It does have the feel of a shower that will pass rather than rain setting in.

 

[Jeffers]

First downpour done. Got. A bit heavy for 5 mins.
Second one will be touch and go I reckon. It may miss us before the bounce
But again after that radar looks clear

 

[Millky95]

I am still a bit confused on Rampe coming straight back in. Whilst I think he is B22 would have thought they'd get game time into him like Adams and Parker.

Fox stiff but easily the best option as the sub.

 

[RUNVS]

Spitting in Hornsby now.

 

[swanssince2002]

Boarding the tram now and the anticipated downpour has arrived. Should pass quickly though.

Looks to me like the showers have been circling the SCG area all morning, but now they are going to land right in the centre.

Love Fox but hasn't seemed to do well as a sub before. Would just have him in the 22. Still, previous times as sub were before he looked comfortable as a defensive forward, so he may do better if he comes on for Amartey etc.

 

[TheGoatBaron]

I'm getting nervous for the Derby now.

 

[Swannie0307]

I’m at the ground … it is in sensational condition! You wouldn’t know Sydney has copped a tonne of rain the last few days.
So unless we get heavy downpours, the conditions should be pretty good

 

[Mister B]

Deeply uncomfortable with the Game Day prefix being changed from red to green.

So it's not just me..... thank God!
