Sydney weather stuffs, racing, cricket and footy. I predict by the mid 2030s there will be redeveloped Randwick with the covered stadium in the middle. 60k capacity
Preview Swans v Blues Friday Night Lights 26th May 7:50pm

Wouldn't shock me if we win this one.
They only have the 5 day break and need to travel. Whereas we have the 6 days and can stay comfy at home.
Carlton down on confidence after failing to get revenge on Collingwood.
Carlton haven't been overly impressive at all. Not sure why everyone talks them up so much.
In fact the more I think about it, the more confident I feel.

I for one would be happily but deeply shocked.
Getting flogged by the Norf mids signals yet again we are running a C grade system with B grade players
If, like Carlton, you’re out of form, Sydney is the team you want to play.
Just ask Freo & Port.

Depends how badly Carlton want the win.
I personally believe North wanted that win real damn bad, which made us look worse than we were. They probably even wanted it more than we did. Look at how well they played last year against us when we were full strength. I'll bet Clarkson spent the off-season specifically training the squad to counter Longmire.
Mills freshly missing didn't help matters. Parker really needed to step up to replace him. Now with a weeks experience without Mills, we should settle. Hopefully they'll train for it and adjust.
I think we'll surprise all the naysayers and go into the bye happier.
Excited by the prospect of seeing my boy Wicks back in the team. His opponents bloody hate him for whatever reason.
I’d actually like to see both T Mac AND Melican come in.
There is absolutely no way we can go into this game without at least one of them.
Blakey on either Curnow or McKay - computer says no.

It would be our best win of the season by a mile.
They destroyed us in a quarter of football last time we met.

Carlton have lost 5 of their last 6 games.
People talk so much about our mental scarring from the Grand Final. How about them missing the unmissable finals series? All they had to do last season was win one of their last 4 games and they choked big time. If people wanna slam us from having the yips then in the same breath why doesn't anyone talk about Carlton shitting the bed? All I ever hear is how great they are.
As for the match being dominant for one quarter against us, from memory, weren't the umps heavily favouring them? Didn't we only lose by 15 in the end? Didn't we storm back into the match in the 2nd half? They were red hot last season coming into our round 10 game whereas we limped in?
Also didn't we just destroy them in a practice match two months ago?
Our biggest win of the season if we win this? Perhaps. But we have a pretty low bar when we've only won 4 so far. To me personally, this should be just a run of the mill win against a very average opposition who proved nothing last season and yet to prove anything this season.
Meep. Gale force winds?
Looks like our goals to behind ratio will be 1:7
If we can fix up our issues in the mids in one week, we got this, but if not, Saads run and carry will destroy us.
For the sake of my pride against my Bluebagger wife and FIL, I hope we win by 20

Blues at rockbottom this season after getting smashed by their rivals, dont worry Sydney is here!
We will get Walsh's season going and Weitering will somehow learn how to intercept mark against us!

Will be a tough game, I think similar to North game.
Two teams badly out of form relying on intent and effort more so than systems and structure.
As long as we can competently cover Curnow, eg 3 goals or less and minimise his influence in the air, somewhat optimistic of heading to the bye with some momentum.
5 day break for Blues and travel a factor.

Reckon we get done by 40+
Make it 70+ if Parker is out.
We can't have the kind of midfield set up/performance we saw last week against a competent team and expect not to be thrashed.
Haven't been in years but if you walk from Central Station this is on the way. Competitive to get a table, but if you get lucky Mexican food and beer is hard to beat IMO.
Hipster graduate crowd might impress your daughter.
If you can swing $10 on an uber after dinner this is nice old school pub in a nice area, not far off.

Would trade him for a first rounder.
You'd be a fool to bet against Randwick being 20x30 floor Meriton aparments with a 50x50 meter park for the dogs to shit in in the middle.
