Anticipation level

Featured Replies

Posted

I started the year with an anticipation level of 5 out of 10 prior to the StKilda game and now I'm not quite sure who we're playing this weekend , so I suppose I'm down to a 2 .

How have you fluctuated ?

 

To be honest, I am still pretty pumped to see what the boys produce

if we can get back Rivers and Travis I think we are a chance

Moloney and Neitz would be a bonus, but not likely

Rivers is the most important player to come back due to matchups

O'keefe, O'Loughlin, Hall, Everitt... so many good forwards

Rivers - O'Keefe

Bell - O'Loughlin

Carroll - Hall

P.Johnson - the resting Everitt/Jolly

There are some obvious reasons for our losses this year and the club knows more about them than we do. You can bet your watermelon they are working hard to turn things around.

You have to remember it was only 5/6 matches ago that we won an elimination final and took it up to the Dockers at home. It was only last year that we won 11 out of 12 and held a top4 position for 8 out of 9 weeks. It's the same blokes out there... well half of them anyway

Obviously injuries are important, but I feel the side has the capacity to get back to their A game and come out with things going our way and get a big scalp at any time.

This could be the week.

So yes, I still have high anticipation levels.

Yep, it was 6 matches ago, our last win in fact. It was one of the 2 1/2 we've won from the last 11. There is no reason to expect a change in this formline.

I am especially excited about this match!!

Probally because my best mate goes for the swans and we always give each other [censored] plus it is the first match i get 2 go!!! So i am very excited!! I also have a strange feeling we will win!

 

im very excited......... oh wait thats because of a massive BBQ im going to that night, i suppose ill look at the game until we are getting flogged by 1/4 time

Would that be anticipation or apprehension?!!!

Although I am always excited to see the boys (whats left of them anyway) live at the SCG.....

As it only happens once a year :rolleyes: !!!


Im still eager to see what they boys produce each wk, hopefully nothing crap

Unfortntely i cant go to the actual game at the SCG this saturday because i have a cold, but i will be watching the game on tv cheering on the boys

Channel 10 or Fox?

Into Sydney, it's live (or as close to live as they think they can get) on Channel 10.

As are all Swans games on Saturday nights.

And there is the later repeat on Fox.

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
