Game Day Sydney Swans Vs Adelaide Crows 1:45pm SCG

If it wasnt for me having a university assignment due sometime soon would have been an outside chance to go to the game... damnit.

University assignments can be done after the game.

I find your lack of faith disturbing.

 

[SwansProudly]

The mighty bloods by 32 points.
The world is watching Lance, while Heeney, Gulden, McDonald, Wicks, Papley have a field day running free from any interference so kicking multiple goals each.

Okie dokey I'm up. 3.5 hours sleep and I'm staggering to the footy. The things we do people.

6.5 fulltime years of uni on my side totally agrees with you lol

Well played Ticky.

Grab yourself a dodgy hotdog (with obligatory sauce in packet that squirts in random directions upon opening) & a watery coffee upon arrival.

Breakfast of champions.

Thought I might venture out to watch this game. Is there a reserves game in before?

 

[Jewelsbon]

how can it ahead?

Because the NSW government doesn't overreact to every sneeze like Dan and Anna.

Agree. Thanks Gladys. The other premiers could learn a thing or two from you. I will come to remember that it was Gladys that could have stopped the footy but didn’t.

Thank goodness for that

Swans by two goals. Please Mills, put in another sharp performance. Who who tag Sloane?

Why do we need to tag? Go head to head.

Go Bloods!! Back it the **** up!!

It feels harsh to say given he's shown more class in his last two outings than he has across his whole career, but I think Florent is under pressure to perform well today. No Rowbottom means more midfield rotations up for grabs. Last week Florent had 9 CBAs while Warner had 8, which suggests Horse doesn't see a lot of difference between the two, and I'd argue Warner had the better game. I think once it might've seemed unfathomable that a player like Florent would be dropped, but after the Hayward omission I really do feel like anyone performing below where they probably should be - and Florent as a fifth-year mid should be doing better than a second-year mid in Warner - will end up on the chopping block. Particularly when next week (if all goes well) we'll have a mid walking straight back in to take some unlucky bugger's spot, just as Buddy did with McLean.

Of course McInerney, Warner, Wicks, Campbell, Gulden etc are under pressure too as they are the least established members of the team, but they'd be under no illusions that they're one or two sub-standard performances away from being dropped. Florent would have every right as a player in that 70-game range to feel like a key player in the team, but his performances have to start validating that or it may leave Horse with no choice.

(Saying this as a big fan and believer in Florent.)

Bah Humbug

In: Gray, Bell, Taylor, Buddy, McInerney, Brand, Melican, Clarke, Stephens, any rookies, the changeroom staff.

Dinner sorted
Quick run down the M1... get to watch the big boys live for the first time in a couple of years woohoo

Geeze the line up to get through the Suez is getting long.
Swans will have fans lining up like that to get into the SCG after we beat the Crows and Richmond next week.
Hewett to have a big one this week. Probably go to Sloane as he is key for them and can't handle a tag.

No mate. ECFL doesn't kick off for another month. And if one had been scheduled they would have moved it to keep the ground good for the main event

No, which gives you plenty of extra time at the pub to squeeze a few more in before the first bounce

 

[Tedeski]

Crows by 21-25 in a frustratingly poor game by us due to the massive structural change in players' roles/manner going forward due to the huge presence with Buddy in the team. The young blokes that took hold of the game last week won't have that same
Having said that, if Buddy dominates & kicks 6 & the youngsters continue with their freedom & contribute to the scoring as they did last week, we'll get through. If Buddy becomes the target of our forward 50 entries 70% of the time, we will go back to our inefficient selves & drop this game.

It's a beautiful day for footy people.

Reading some of the posts on here you would think it's a horrible day for footy people, lol

 

[SGBeach]

Ling is the sub
nice job Ling

Does this suggest Campbell might play further up the ground?

 

[Ticky009]

Am ridiculously over the top excited making my way to Moore Park.

Reckon it's a good idea to keep politics to the Skilton bar - heaven knows we fight enough amongst ourselves when we all support the same team!

Well only if Ling comes on.

Also surprised Stephens isn't the sub as he is a more multi-purpose sort of player.

yep,,, I was expecting Stephens to be the sub
I guess if Ling does come on, then Campbell offers that flexibility.

and, stoked for Ling - thinking hes got a big future

 

[Punts]

Bloody scg lol
