    GWS v Swans

    It's already 19 degrees at 7.30am but the BOM has rain hitting Homebush Bay around 1.30. Shades of Round 1 last year.

    I don't think I've been less confident about a game in years to be honest. I wonder if our average age/games is younger than theirs today?

    I doubt it's even close with Goodes, Ted, Macca and K.Jack in the team

    The posts of impending doom grow louder ????
    Saw a great quote today cant remember where but it was a NFL commentator
    Something along the lines of
    "there is no such thing as a sure thing that's why we play the games"
    Latest example with Port getting up last night
    My tip Swans by 34 Tippett to kick four Jetta three
    Pyke to be among our best Goodes vs Griffen and Hannebery vs Green to be match ups worth watching. Brandon to keep Conigilio quiet

    Can't see how its gonna rain today, its like summer today here in the East. Was feeling very worried about this game earlier this week with our thin stocks but I think we still have quite a strong team if Longmire juggles our players right

    Round 1 last year was just like this. Before the game it was so hot I decided to take shade waiting under the stands. One hour later I was taking shelter under the same stands from the rain

    Marsh withdrawn from the ressies. Xavier was never named. Looks like a late change, probably Laidler didn't pull through. Backing Richards to take his spot

    GWS have plenty of injury problems too.

    No changes. Subs are Rose and McCarthy

    That was the best that the live stream has ever worked. I actually got to watch the game. Clearly a big difference in skill level between the two sides but swans didn't really have that many listed players playing and it was a big improvement in the score line from the previous time they played each other.

    Sorry wrong thread. Meant for the ressies thread

    Interesting choice for a sub for the giants as they wouldn't want to lose a mid early! McCarthy is fairly mobile though.
