With Pearce missing for three to four weeks, our chances of beating Fremantle have become a little better.

May be out for the rest of the season sadly

Yeah, he's had a good year too.

 

[FB19]

Yeah, he's had a good year too.

I thought he was clearly AA full back. Somehow though, even if he had stayed on the park and despite all the tagging, Stewart will still find his way into the AA backline.

 

[Since 2001]

Your time is off by 12 months.

Battle and Smith are moving

Yes, i meant in the team for 2025

 

[Chubbs25]

Alot of 8 points games on the run home. If we win our 3 against cats giants freo will go a long way to making it

Jack Riewoldt said on 360 last night that if we get into the finals, we're a sneaky chance of emulating the Bulldogs' achievement in 2016.

I can see where he's coming from.

The defining characteristic of the Dogs win (besides egregiously bad umpiring) was that no one thought it'd happen. Makes me less comfortable that people are coming out and saying this sort of stuff.

It wasn’t at the time but this could be put down to no one doing it beforehand. There’s an example now of it happening so Hawthorn or whoever else are getting those comparisons. It’s the same as Hawthorn fans and comparing players to Kennedy and leaving.

Would be so sweet to get another flag over the Swans in spite of their academy players and a to-date highly dominant season.

Imagine losing two grand finals to teams from the bottom half of the 8.

If that were to unfold it would be absolutely priceless

he's very likeable, Jack.

 

[MazHawk]

I think we might miss out but not by much the Power game might be the difference, but if we finish 9-12 I think that will have been a very good year regardless.
Our team structure alone is looking way better than it did. MM really did a great job when you think about it.
Ginni, Chol & Massi have really exceeded expectations and if we manage to pick up Battle and Smith this year (they're my two prefs) it'll be massive.

 

[Cyril says]

They had a great montage before Jack said we’d win the Premiership (OK, could win) … featuring Sam Mitchell. Worth checking out.

i did see that and i agree it was excellent

 

[OnTheRocks]

We'd be in 3rd if we had of been better for longer against scum, Pies & port.
So close to being very likely playing finals to maybe, just maybe.

Let’s just take it easy, let’s not get too far ahead of ourselves just yet, yeah?

 

[Nugett]

Be a great send off for Breust and Gunston

 

[Nugett]

[wahawk]

After this weeks game we could see a massive logjam on the ladder

It could easily be
6 teams on 8 wins
2 teams on 8 & 1/2
1 team on 8 + 2draws
1 team on 9
1 team on 9 & 1/2

6 points between 3rd & 13th

There's a whiff of 2008 about this season, with the Swannies playing the role of Geewrong... Flare the nostrils and take in the sweet sweet aroma...

That would make Carlton us as we were the second best team all year.

They can just play the role of the Swans.. the worst performing Grand Final side in modern history, it's the reason i'm not entirely sold regardless of how great they're looking right now.

Way ahead of Jack...

The Chad and I:
I'm starting to get a "Baby Bombers" vibe from this group.
They DGAF about pressure.
They will thrive in front of a big crowd.
