    To beat the Cats on Saturday we must....

    As last weeks' thread was reasonably well received I thought I would post again this week. This isn't a thread for long debates please use the Game Poll thread for that. Just post your thoughts on the areas of the game we need to improve on, where we have a advantage, dangerous players we must match up on.

    I'm in the process of "scoring" last weeks' thread and will publish shortly.

    Wrong. We must be Essendon or West Coast (urk).

    Maybe the Bombers could swap us Mark Thompson for John Blakely this weekend?
    To all those people who waited 72 years to see a South Melbourne/Sydney Swans premiership HERE IT IS!!

    Serious answer - obviously kicking straight. Play Johnston up forward to kick goals. Play Parker or Gordon.

    Maintain the forward pressure we showed against Saints. Our last qtr was very good so I'd like to see us keep that up and put early scoreboard pressure on.

    This. I ran away for the weekend so only saw the game last night. It was very annoying to hear the commentators going on about how the Swans had to get into a game we completely dominated but couldn't kick straight. We showed the Saints up as very ordinary under pressure. The last quarter we straightened up and looked very good.

    The Cats and Pies haven't looked as dominating the past few weeks so I see a chance that we can achieve the impossible. That would be a season highlight! (But I'd worry that we'd then lose to the Lions.) I'm expecting Mummy to put on another blinder against his old team. I don't expect us to win but I think it's a possibility and have tipped us again.

    Yeah, I thought the Cats were very ordinary last week.

    They certainly didn't turn up to play, did they? And the week before they only beat the Crows by 11 points and failed to kick 100 points.

    ...take our chances and have a high effective disposal % because the Cats ruthlessly punish mistakes.
    ..And the Swans are the Premiers...The Ultimate Team...The Ultimate Warriors. They have overcome the highly fancied Hawks in brilliant style. Sydney the 2012 Premiers - Gerard Whately ABC

    Improve our kicking stat of 45.87% in front of goal to 75.87% also when a Swan takes a mark instead of holding up play by re setting kick straight away and pref to another Swan! Here's hoping! Oh yeah Leave out Kennelly!
