Now before we get into my "brief" but meaningful preview its time for a little quiz (or fun)

So who are the 5 players you would like to punch in the face and why? Well everyone I have a count down for you all.

5. TOBY GREENE

Bit of a low hanging fruit this one, yes he has done what each of us have wanted to do before and given an umpire a whack, but you have to remember these players are supposed to be role models for the next generation.

4. TOBY GREENE

Starting to get a bit more serious now, as mentioned in number 5 that AFL players set an example for the next generation, well Toby Greene actually wrote a letter to himself as a kid stating that players should be setting better examples for their younger fans.

WHAT A HYPOCRITE -

I mean come on, surely you would love to put him in his place?

3. TOBY GREENE

He is a dirty grub on the field, doing whatever he can to get ahead of his opposition. Knees, Feet, Arms, Headbutts anything is not off limits for himself. During his career he has been charged by the AFL Tribunal on 23 different occasions, had 8 suspensions and had $30,000 worth of fines.

Wouldn't it be nice to see a player dish it back? (Ideally not a Swan so we can avoid the suspension though)

2. Toby Greene

YET AGAIN the pattern continues, not only is he a dirty grub on the field but he is off the field, guilty of assault in 2014 (and lucky to escape with a fine) he has also had a reputation for his behaviour in school (And I know someone personally who was bullied by him quite heavily when she was younger).

Maybe the threat of capital punishment will pull him in line?

1. TOBY GREENE

To no one's surprise the MOST hated player in the AFL is none other than Toby Greene, but what makes me want to slug him on the chin ahead of all the above controversies? Well it is simply because he is the major player standing in our way this weekend, if we manage to stop Toby Greene, we stop the giants. The issue is it is a lot easier said than done, so I have come up with a few simple solutions.

- Tonya Harding the guy walking into the ground
- Plant a bit of fun in his training locker for a surprise inspection
--Find his favourite takeaway place and pay the owner to add a little "extra" to his meal

Honestly whilst I can fantasise there are more appropriate ways to stopping GWS this weekend.

- Protect Warner/ Gulden/ Heeney and allow them to do what they do best
Over the weekend Adelaide got on top of us and a large part of this was due to the pressure they were applying on Warner/ Gulden/ Heeney. If we can ensure they are freed up around the stoppage from the first bounce this weekend that will go a long way to assisting us to secure the victory.

- Show intensity/ composure from the first bounce
The Swans have started a bad habit of starting matches slowly recently, but hypothetically, just imagine if we didn't start off 20 minutes after our opposition, if we were composed with the right intensity from the first bounce? Well GWS simply wouldn't be able to go with us. If we are good to go there is no stopping us.

- Shutting down Whitfield
My supercoach is screaming at me for suggesting this, but the barometer to GWS this year is Whitfield, GWS haven't won a single game where he has had less than 27 disposals. Got a small feeling he might meet the acquaintance of the beautiful and charming James Jordan on the weekend.

- Clamping down the GWS talls
GWS have multiple talls all over the ground that can be match winners, From Hogan in the forward line, to Briggs in the ruck, Taylor and Himmelberg in defence. Because of this we will have to ensure we lower our eyes and hit targets on the lead or use our speed and dash to break up congestion. If we can do this - GAME SET MATCH SWANS


Team Changes

- To Be updated Thursday evening but likely both teams are unchanged currently.

Weather
- Clear, low chance of rain and a moderate breeze

What will Bonz be doing?
- Watching the game on his couch with a protein shake in hand

Final Prediction?
- I am not giving my prediction as I will jinx the result <3

I have to say I do love watching Toby play just that every game against us he turns into prime Stevie Johnson...watch the bloke kick 5 straight this week after kicking 1.5 last week
 
Hello Bonz - how is the fencing going ? :)

Well didn't go quite as well as I would have liked at the World Cup or the Grand Prix, but it was an insane experience representing Australia at a professional sporting event and one of the biggest honours of my life.

For the moment I have retired from it though, got a lot of pent up damage in one of my knees (strained LCL and PCL ligaments) due to overwork (Fencing lunges). So focusing on a new sport/ goal for the moment which is exciting.

As a neutral, Chad Warner has a pretty punchable face 😎

There are multiple Swans who would fustrate me if they played for an opposition team.

Papley, Chad, Wicks, McInerney and Rampe

As a fan, Papley also has a punchable face.

But they are our punchable faces and no, you can not have either of them.

Looking at you Freo...

Oh well, at least I helped get you to the Dragons. Loved you enjoyed and lived the experience mate. Good luck with the new sport anyhow - pocket billiards ?

I am not gay, but Dane Rampe is Dane Rampe. I would not be complaining if I had his face!

Oh I adore Rampre and 100% would go for him.

But the post climbing incident and a few other oddities with him over the years would frustrate fans of other clubs 😂

Actually boxing 😅

Out of one fire and into the other I guess.

Ah yes, Rampe's had his fair share of moments over the journey. I thought we were talking purely punchable faces. I got a little too defensive of Rampe's looks there, didn't I?

McInerney?

Harsh call.

He's the type of bloke that'd rock up to the pub in his burnt orange Torana, clad in his finest Sunday flanno shirt & happily order a round of VBs and a plate of hot chips for the crew.
 
i've never had a problem with greene ... apparently endured a hard early life
and greene plays with heart and fire
i find jake stringer far easier to despise, he's a self-centred flake
but i go back to the likes of wayne carey and dermott brereton for players i truly friggin loathed, carey remains the biggest grub in football ... that he's still in football in some way is extremely disappointing and a sad reflection on the "popular culture" of sport
were i a bit older, ted whitten would be there somewhere too, i'm sure
 
1. Maynard
2. Lachie Neale
3. Ginnivan

Team Changes
Hoping Cogs, Ash & Cumming return for us
Weather / Prediction
This hit out last year was insane from your boys, 12 straight to start the game

Good luck for Saturday night, hope it's another cracking game 👍
 
Used to absolutely hate Toby but warmed to him over time. Recognise he's a good player despite the cheating. Tears us apart every time so begrudgingly respect it.

Maynard on the other hand. Hoo boy. The article he's like.... "Oh I'm a nice guy." 🤮🤮🤮Shouldn't have played the Grand Final. Private school chirpy, fake tough guy. Ended a guys career and went to his house with flowers so he could play in a Grand Final. Would love to break my knuckles on his face.
 
Bailey Fritsch has a very punchable face, gun player though
I'd like to "break" his hair!!

Tom Papley is right up there as a punchable face the way he carries on after kicking a goal
