mmmm It isn't the best start in the world. But In comparision to other seasons it's not a slow start. We do look a little skecthy in some areas but there are some promising signs. i.e. The ruck is already looking better, attack on the ball is very hard, we happen to be fourth

But yes there does need to be alot of improvment

 

[jemsta]

yeah playing adelaide at AAMI stadium is always a difficult assignment
if we come away with a win, then that shows were a force to be reckoned with come in the latter stages of this season

everitt seems to be an sexcellent buy

I concure. I just hope he becomes a straiter kicker (along with the rest of the squad)

ok this is a message to all swans fans who plan to go to a home game at the scg: get your ticket before the day! do not come to the game 30min prior, expecting there will a thousand tickets left.

the scg is doing some constructions, which will not finish until next year. this means 10-12000 seats are not available for the rest of the season.

i worked for the ground and i could not believe how many people missed out on the game because they think the tickets will wait for them to show up. i had at least 10 people came all the way from brisbane and could not get a ticket last sunday.

so come to the game ticket-less at your own peril.

Poor people. Your bound to get people like that all season.

Just one of the reasons I'm glad I'm a season Ticket holder (and have been since 96)

This game should be bloody brilliant. Can't wait. 15 mins left

I think I'm even more of a fan since I was playing it last semester in the USA (of all places). Watching the grand final with my team and some Aussies who drove up 6 hours from South Carolina just to watch the game at the only place screening it was teh sex.

Do you have an HD-TV? AFL in HD is amaaaaazing.

 

[jemsta]

hahaha nice nice
unfortunately i dont have HD tv....off to the pubES for me

 

[stazi]

hawt. have fun.

 

[adders]

Yes, swans lost. i'm so happy
GO THE CATS

 

[jemsta]

the hawks is gonna kick geelongs ass
swans really need to work their kicking in front of goal...simply atrocious

 

[wyho]

the point in swans losing was inaccuracy of kicking goals. they simply had more scoring shots than the opposing. this was one of the most terrible games ive seen the swans play in the past few years. not many under roosey. p.s i lost $ from tab. thanks swans.

 

[SyCoTiC]

They really need to work on their set shots. They could've easily won this game had they made their kicks, I mean.. 2 goals and 9 behinds from set shots is simply embarassing.

It's the hawks are gonna kick Geelong's ass mate and even if they do the cats will still be ahead of the swans

 

[jemsta]

cats fucking lost :rofl:
and anyways swans will be guaranteed a top 8 finish this season....cats well probably not

 

[Gilbert1]

If the swans dont make the top for I will consider this season a complete fail. Unless that is they make top 8 then win grand final but thats only happened once.

 

[SyCoTiC]

Judging by how they are kicking, I can't see them making the top 8 unless there's a significant improvement. It's always a bad thing when you kick more behinds than goals altogether on the scoreboard!

Hopefully Swans can break the hoodoo they have with Melbourne with Melbourne always managing to win up here but we always win down in Melbourne. They're significantly under-manned with a huge injury list so we should topple them if our forward line fires and is on target.

 

[jemsta]

melbourne are languishing last on the ladder, so judging from that, we should encounter them very easily, but if we had a kicking performance like that against the crows, dont be surprised if melbourne upset sydney

 

[sydneyswansfan]

if we kick like that in any game there is no chance of us winning let alone top eight or gf. Good for Crouch to play again though.
