The first two finals have once again shown what finals footy is all about: pressure. Richmond brought a lot of it last night, crows the same the night before. It's not always pretty, but it's what gets the biscuits in big games.

Pressure, contested footy? Mmmmmm, there's a side I know who tries to play that kind of game every week...

40 points up by half time is my feeling as we are really good now at game preparation which is often why we hit the scoreboard in a hurry & we have the ability to adjust accordingly when it doesn't quite go our way early. We then reset ourselves at half time & do the same in third quarters.

With all due respect to Essendon, they will be out of their depth today.
We have the best defence in the land & perhaps the best midfield. They'll have their work cut out to stay with us.

Final score:
Swans 96 (Cue in the rack style)
Essendon 64 (Window dressing at the end with some junk goals)
 
2 things I hate...

Watching swans games at a pub
Watching swans games with an opposition supporter.

For some reason I agreed to both today. We better win.

That really made me laugh. For some unaccountable reason, I have no Essendon mates (my bookie is no mate). If you are in Melbourne go to a Clarendon St pub, but tell your mate not to wear red and black and to remain very quiet.

Could live with that

Or Sydney 202
Essendon 34 with some junk time goals

Only 202 coz of team efforts to get Smithy on the scoreboard in Q4 time-on (he kicks 1.2 but gives off two goal assists to Reg in the last four minutes).
 
Best of luck guys.

I think you guys will come out and try to blitz us. If we can ride that out for a quarter this will be a great game that could go to the wire like last time!
I think we will too! And with no offence intended at all, I'm really hoping you can't ride out that first quarter and simply fall off!

Your a pretty good team this year, and are giving a lot of us the jitters here...

All the best for an injury free, well umpired game where you come second!

Two out of three ain't bad, is there such a thing as well umpired this season ?
