I remember the week prior to the Eagles game, the Swans were down at Kardinia Park. I think Plugger needed 12 goals at that stage and I didn't go down, thinking we were "safe" for at least one more week.

By half time he had six on the board and I - and a lot of others watching the game at Easts - started to get very agitated that he might do it too soon.

I think he just scored one more in the second half...

(Though at least the Swans won quite comfortably. Question for trivia buffs - is that the most recent time the Swans have won at Kardinia?)

Worsfold alluded to this recently - they are only too aware of their poor record in Sydney.

Besides, it's our turn to win...

Read the story of the little red hen backwards. If I'm not allowed to own the place or moderate a forum, you can kiss my curvy yellow butt.

Going back to the subject of this thread.
I've just noticed there are track works plan that weekend for North Shore and Northern lines.Source
This is going to be a nightmare for me, because I will have to drive to TS.

What a rotten luck!

Catch the bus, or at least drive to somewhere, park your car, then catch the bus.

The added advantage, the buses move 1000's of people after the game much quicker and with less frustration then lining up for the train.

It is little wonder nobody has come forward to help with an attitude like that.

See, I can roll my eyes as well.

Does anyone else remember cressa spilling an important grab in that match, which resulted in a goal to Peter Matera. One of the most frustrating losses EVER!

Those stupid bastards. They manage to do this almost every time the Swans play at TS.
