Our recent record against the Swans hasn't been great so despite them having some a few regulars missing we should not expect this game to be easy.

I went to see the Swans against Carlton last week at the SCG.

They don't bat that deep atm imo so if you can nullify a few key playmakers, we should win.

Heeney and Warner are probably the big threats so hopefully Viney and I suspect Clarry can keep them under wraps - both are super dangerous inside F50.

Blakey creates a lot of rebound in their D50 and I thought the Blues did a decent job of blocking his usual handball receives which robbed him of the chance to do too much damage.

I had a bad dream, I sense an upset!

Still have nightmares the time when Adam Goodes tore us apart.

But as Binman pointed out some of their killer forwards are out. And some have had poor seasons. Not unlike our forward line except it's come to life, especially last week.

I'm keen to see how it goes today. I'm predicting Kozzie to have a big day in what I understand to be fine conditions. And of course, see what some of the young ones do.

If we play like last week we will definitely win.

I actually think this could be out biggest win of the season so far. Syd have improved their game but they can't score and they have some big outs. We'll be full of confidence after last week so I think we'll win easily here.

Dees by 41.

I'd reckon that our 'young' brigade will really stand up and be counted, in this game. Their experience(s) have grown, they have checked the videos of their weaknesses, then assimilated 'learnings' into progressive contributions to date. Should be a very pleasing opportunity to knock the Swans were it hurts, and I just love the bench line-up to help out.

If we're relying on Viney today then we're in trouble

Be careful over there. I got mugged in Pattaya in 1986. I was drinking with locals then I woke up several hours later minus a few hundred $$.

A 'classy' bar in Pattaya. Is there a 2nd Pattaya I don't know about?

Isn't there folklore about people waking up without a kidney?

 

Clarry or Viney going to Warner? and/or Heeny if they swap during the game.

Big opportunity today to build momentum for the rest of the fast moving season.

I’ve never seen the words “classy” and “Pattaya” used in the same sentence before. You are a pioneer Bitts. Enjoy your day.

Viney not playing ...

I am really looking forward to this game. A beautiful day for my walk to the Mcg. Very handy living in Richmond. I will go to the Hassett Room for couple of beers before the game, and then go to my reserved seat.

It will be interesting to see if we kick better for goal with windy conditions.

Could Rivers get a role on Heeney?

It would be lovely to see us do something similar to what the Timberwolves are doing to OKC right now.

Expecting to take this game out quite easily, and I now believe that the non nomination of Tommy is a ruse.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
