    #AFL Round 23 Swans v Saints Sat 24-Aug at SCG #AFLSwansSaints @sydneyswans

    Sydney Swans (7W14L 15th) v St Kilda Saints (9W12L 14th)
    Saturday 24th August 2019 1:45pm AEST
    Sydney Cricket Ground

    Not that we any extra motivation with the farewells today, but a win against the Saints would prevent them from possibly jumping to 12th. Since we hold their second round pick this year this has direct consequences for our draft position.

    Nice stuff Ugg - fascinated by this stat and wonder if Lions and Tigers have been the previous owners of this mantle:

    Sydney has lost five matches decided within 10 points or less this season - the most of any side

    What is the wind like down there? There doesn't seem much in the Ressies Tramway game, but plenty up here in the Blue Mountains

    About as still as it gets. Occasionally just a whisper of a breeze but about as close to perfect conditions as you can get for a game of footy.

    No late changes. Starting bench Menzel Rowbottom Ronke Dawson which would Suggest Dawson in the backs Today.

    Beautiful day. Very close-knit warm-up, everyone out together. Hug for McVeigh from Hanners. Going to be a special day.

    Feeling pretty confident for this one. Last week's win was a confidence booster and we probably have more to play for than the Saints.

    Wish we could duplicate Aliir. So lively in the ruck.

    Amazing kicking this quarter, which is something you never say about the swans. Dropped marks are frustrating tho

    JPK prominent today.....up to 11 disposals already. Swans looking sharp (even though I'm not watching the game!). Keep it up....this could be a really enjoyable day.
