Longmire just interviewed...happy with effort and winning tackles. Mal off as a precaution. He says Hanners, Nick Smith & Tippett all back next week. Will see how Jetta pulls up after Ressies (something tells me Jets could be a sub next week all going well). Horse also mentioned Goodesy ran well today and LRT is thereabouts. Ch 7 also showed Keiran Jack in the rooms sitting against the wall wrapped in a red dressing gown looking asleep. They said he looked a bit fluey...if so, thats a good sign as he will only improve.

Wow. I'd accepted i would have a miserable week. But our midfield no longer look tired. Jesse is great to watch. Kieren was his old self. Ted is in form. Mummy has energy. I was worried we were going to win. We can beat these pretenders. I don't think we match up as well against Geelong, and Freo probably do. This was a good result.

Certainly the effort was there, and the hard ball pressure was most certainly there. Need to maintain it for 4 quarters, but we weren't helped tonight by not having Hanners in our midfield rotation. As useful as Cunningham and BJ may become, they don't get a lot of ball yet and it was our bottom few that got shown up when the game was there to be won early in the last. Bring in Hanners, get Smith back to do a job on that little Poopoo or Rioli if he plays and get Tippett back, and I think we are right in it next week.

Looking forward to the media writing us off all week next week! If we bring tonight's effort next week and a bit more polish, we can win next week. Carn you mighty swannies - don't give up the Cup without an almighty fight!

Happier to face Hawks (minus Bloody Wanklin) than Geelong.

Yep me too, I want another crack at these arrogant @@@@@@ next week....Also I know there is a contract in place, but it's just ridiculous how we have to keep playing at ANZ, our home is the SCG!!!
