    I would love a Swans Premiership in 2012, who wouldnt. I just get that feeling that THIS Preliminary Final is the game we are all wanting to win, badly. I sense a great deal more excitement for this PF than the previous ones in 96, 03, 05 and 06.

    The Boys have gone higher and better than most of us expected this year.
    So they they can just go out and enjoy themselves in the Prelim against The Pies . If they go even higher with no pressure we will all be ecstastic to see them in another granny.
    No pressure, just have fun boys.

    When ever l think of Friday night, I keep thinking of a saying that goes around in my head.

    "We are all in control of our own destiny"

    This is a win, i have that 2005 feeling in my bones again.
    You Just Do Not Get a Better Grand Final Win Than That

    I know this is Nico's hobby horse, but centre square clearances are absolutely crucial, this was where we fell down when Jude was out. Hopefully with him back we can at least break even...

    Swans: Just win.

    Centre clearances are important, don't get me wrong, but we have won games this year losing this stat and also the contested possession stat too. It's what we do with the ball when we have it and how we allow the opposition to use the ball that generally determines whether or not we win. We need to execute our skills smartly and with composure, and we need to exert enormous pressure on the opposition so they are unable to do so. They can win the clearances by 20 as long as they all land in Teddy's arms as far as im concerned.

    He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

    No ten minute brain fades and we're a big chance.

    Agree.We have the game already to beat anybody but each time we have got to seemingly unbeatable positions with all the momentum we have let them back in with a dumb brain fade.This was notably absent against the Crows. We can beat the Pies but concentration has to be there with desperation for 100% of the time.If Daisy kicks a miracle goal,we have to kick the next one! We will win!.Its my birthday and I have a good feeling about this game. It's time!
