Biggest game in years.

Win and we stay in the finals hunt, lose and its likely over.

I'm remarkably relaxed this morning, which is most unusual on game day, and even more so with so much riding on the result for us.  I don't quite know how to interpret this new gameday feeling, but I'm putting a positive spin on it, and assuming it's a good omen.  Illogical I know, but Dees by 9 points in a low scoring affair.

Dunn and Morton snagging multiple sausage rolls. Those were the days....

I reckon we will give it a red hot crack, but there is still a big class difference between us and the Swans. Most of our class is visible and emerging, but still in the developing potential stage. The Swans have class on every line and a midfield that is huge in body size. 

Maybe the Swans lowest ranked 5 players are not as good as they used to be and our lowest ranked 5 are much better than they have been in years, but I can still see a 30 point loss coming up. 

Gawn, Hogan and TMac are our vital three. And Buddy is in the form of his life and could murder us.

If wet, I would like to see smarter wet weather play from us. I hope we learned something from the Hawks the other week. 

We tend not to learn from those experiences. Sorry for the pessimism,but I think in the wet, on their dung heap, the Swans will be too good. Hope to hell I am wrong though.

Pity that we hadn't learned when we took on the Bombers, as a win would have us in the 8 now. Also if North hadn't used their own umpires in Tassie, we would have won that as well and been entrenched in the 8 at this point of the season. 

Oh well if my Auntie had balls.

I prefer the days and years that are coming up

At Cronulla train station, my scarfs have locals thinking I'm a Newcastle Knights supporter. Strawberry Hills awaits, in need of a couple.

No free to air coverage?

Raining now near the ground. Steady but not heavy yet.

Light rain in the Shire, couldn't just bloody wait could it.

I wonder just how much of a factor is Roosey's knowledge of the SCG will be?

Quite. I was being a little sarcastic.

Broadly speaking I'd say none at all.

A bit of light comedy to get things rolling.

Enjoy!

 

I found the footage of Jim Stynes, Dean Bailey and Liam Jurrah a bit sad actually......amazing win tho. Lets hope the boys can stand up today.

I'll be heading back from a non-eventful weekend at Buller and will be watching it on Foxtel Go sparingly as my 4G drops in and out.

Dees by 27.

Hopefully Michie comes in for Dawes or Oscar given the weather.

Miche plays very well in the wet, good in close and his disposal remains a strength.

When the SCG are charging $5.90 for chips and $7 for a pie the win was in vain.

No late changes to either side.

Hawks kicked along the ground in the wet, Swans will do like wise, our train of thought will be pick up the ball and handball.  That is the Roos style which is hard to change on game day.

Who does bugg go to, Kennedy I'm guessing.
