Preview Gold Coast Swans vs Sydney Swans 7PM AEDT 18 Mar 23 @ Heritage Bank Stadium

[caesar88]

The main reason I hate both the Fox & Seven commentary teams is because they're both painfully biased, albeit from opposite sides.

Fox love the underdogs, they're always rooting for the little guys, the upset, the shocking story.

Seven love the favourites, they fawn over the best teams with the best players who play the best footy.

It's generally made Seven preferable to me, mainly because we are the favourites in most games we're in and it's good to be recognised for how good we are, rather than called with an undertone of contempt because we're being party-poopers to some average side. But both still suck.

We turned out to not be very good at winning a 2022 AFL Grand Final so I’m hoping we come out breathing fire and show that we are still deadset serious this year.

We will lose by 20 points

didn't we suffer enough watching the grand final

Fairly Untoward.

We will lose by 20 points

You've been to the future?? How is it?

Not good

It is just a guess. I am fairly pessimistic about this year. On paper we should win this game but I don't see it happening. I hope I am wrong though and will be first to admit it if I am

I took my four year old to the Adelaide game last year. Got absolutely s**t scared by the noise from the goal rush in the first quarter and had to leave early.

Surely you could have been braver for your kid's sake.

I remember the first time my Dad took me to the cricket. SCG. Bradman stand. Can't remember who we played.
I think I was watching a cricket walking underneath the seat in front of me when suddenly there was a loud noise and everyone stood up. Everything went dark.
I thought to myself then that I need to watch the game so that I can jump up and yell too like everyone else.
I was just a rookie.

First time in Swans history we’ll be up against a Bodhi.

Might watch Point Break later on. The original, not the crappy remake.

There isn't much I ever disagreed with on your posts Jewels, but we've found our uncommon ground with Heatherbrae's Pies.

I don't do that trip very often, but chanced on a good pie at the bakery in Buladelah a few years ago.

However, we are getting into dangerous toastie territory here.

Great pastries there... good food for a quick stop!

Buddy shouldn't be picked.
His two pre-season games were uninspiring & if Horse is fairdinkum, those performances are not best 22.

But he will be picked. This will be a nasty finish to Buddy's career IMO.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Bring back Roos for SCG games so everybody loses their shit again.

Is he a definite starter? Longmire mentioned he has only had one good session.

 

[SwansProudly]

Who will have an AFL debut with the Swans in tonight's team?
Who will have Swans Debut?

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Its round 1 GC and Dew will want to get their season off in style especially at home.

30+ degree weather will we put in enough effort to get the 4 points?

So given we go with 3 KPFs and a ruck every time, with Amartey injured and McLean also uninspiring, who is joining Reid and Logan up forward?

 

[caesar88]

I wonder if Gulden & Stephens will start on the bench..

why do you wonder that?

Someone who can produce more output than Buddy did in his last 4 hitouts.

Y'all hate McLean but the answer is McLean

 

[Bloods86]

Y'all hate McLean but the answer is McLean

Based on the criticisms being levelled at Buddy's pre season, and recent games, why?

[RUNVS]

I wonder if Gulden & Stephens will start on the bench..

Doesnt matter too much these days as players on the bench are rotated onto the ground pretty quickly.

 

[dewah07]

Hi all! Do you guys expect Cunningham to start foward or on the wing?
