    Did anyone catch Parker's interview on the huddle on Grandstand last Sunday? I listened to the podcast.
    Anyway, they were talking about how it has taken a long time for Mitchell to get a game and Luke said about Craig "now it's a hard time for Birdy, he's out of the team when really he should be playing, I think."

    I'm sure Luke meant that he really should be playing given how good he is and has been, not that he should be playing at the expense of a player currently in the best 22.

    Ah the good ol' Hawks game. I'll be watching, filled with my usual feeling of zero confidence that the Swans can win. The Swans seem to be completely incapable of beating Hawthorn no matter what. I look forward to a match that the Swans will fill with missed tackles, mindless fwd 50 entries, allowing opposition players to do whatever they want (Stratton anyone?) and of course very poor conversion. Conversley, I look forward to any Hawk from any position on the ground including full back throw the ball onto his boot and watch it go through for a goal after bouncing at all sorts of scientifically impossible angles.

    Maybe Longmire finally realised last week that the key to success is goal-kicking mids. That is the only way Swans will have a chance.

    Pretty much how I feel unfortunately so I have decided to forego the usual trip to Melbourne and save myself the anguish of sitting amongst the most arrogant and offensive set of supporters in the AFL.

    Instead I'm going to Spotless to watch what should be an absolute cracker of a game before going home to settle down in front of the OLED with some Thai takeaway and a nice bottle of Shiraz....

    Just a gentle reminder:

    Swans 107 def Hawks 88

    See it is possible.

    This is what made us such a strong team in 2012. This is why I want Mitchell permanently in the side. He's elite on the inside and it frees up Parker and Kennedy to go forward who are both efficient in front of goals.

    I see Clarko quoted in Realfooty about how they will need to start aggressively against the Swans. For 'aggressive' substitute the real meaning: bullying and over the top. Bastards!
