Hoodoos

[johnno]

Nobody, I mean NOBODY beats the swans 12 times in a row!!!!!!!!!

Nice to get THAT hoodoo of our backs. Our streak against the Magpies is one in a row and counting.

2 weeks ago we got rid of another hoodoo when we defeated the crowbots over in Adelaide....job done.

Now next week, we need to break the final hoodoo...........we need to win on the MCG. I dont care who we play, Hawks or Crows(Go Crows), we just need to play the same way we played tonight, and we'll break our 3rd and FINAL hoodoo!!!

Was impressed tonight with the work rate, contested possession and handballing.
Not satisfied with goal kicking accuracy. Ask Geelong in the 2008 granny about that or North in the 1998 granny

Should've thumped them by 60-70 points tonight.

Nice :)

I love your work Trip, but I'm a little worried about the new avatar. It's not like we don't see enough of that cheesy face these days :rolleyes:

The good thing about hoodoos is that they never last for ever. And isn't wonderful when they end.

Got our stats against the Hawks?
3 wins and 6 losses since 2008. (http://stats.rleague.com/afl/teams/swans/allgames_tm.html#10)
Before that we won 6 in a row (2004-2007).

For what it's worth, we've got a couple of nice streaks of our own.

Port Adelaide - 8 wins in a row since 2006.
West Coast - 6 wins in a row since 2008. Especially significant is that we are the only side that has beaten the Eagles at home in the last few years.
North Melbourne - 6 wins in a row since 2008.

Fun fact - Although West Coast have won their last three against the Power, in the previous 17 games the Eagles beat Port Adelaide only 3 times.
