GAME DAY Tiges vs How I love ya Swanees
- Thread starter Mr T.
- Start date
In a pretty tight contest for mine, I reckon the Tigers win by three goals. Looking forward to the game as it should give us a better indication of where the Tiges are at. Been a good past month but the Swans should be a sterner test that what we've faced recently.
Jack to kick four and Prestia to star again.

Agree it will be a slog but not as confident we will win.
We are playing well so it won’t be a repeat of last year at the G - losing Lynch hurts as he has been our main avenue to goal and we haven’t replaced him with another goal kicker In the team. I was hoping he would be replaced with another small forward.
Reckon we need 2 goals from George and him setting up 1 more for us to be a chance - its time he stepped up and this is the game to do it.
Swans will be desperate to turn around their form, desperate for the points as they have Melb next week and they did finish well against the blues last week.
In our favour is that we are not limping to the bye like other seasons, we have momentum and we have Dusty.
If these don’t work for us, then I think the Swans home ground gives them the extra 12 points they need to get over the line.
The Swans love the cut the angles and run the ball through the middle of the ground.
Pickett and Macintosh could be the two most important players for us tonight.

Funny thing is one half of me reckons we will win.
The other half is in dark side mode and think we might just fall short.
Time will tell and will hope for the best.
Need to contain Heeney, who is a gun.
Our midfield needs to get first hands on the ball, Prestia is key here. If they tag Prestia then who do we have next, Cotch, run Dusty and Shai, or Short through the midfield?
I'd love Gibcus on Buddy and need to be tight on Paps and Heeney.
From all accounts Sydney are playing tall in the backline and struggle with mobile small forwards, I'll to see this work out for us. Chaos time again?
I think we've got enough dour stoppers to keep their forward line under wraps, including Heeney. The issue is where our goals will come from. We'll need a couple of Shai and Dusty, and hopefully George can get his hands onto the footy early on.
I reckon we'll scrape over the line by a goal.

dont care if we win 12 to 8. Just need these 4 points to move from the "thereabouts 8" and to top 4 contention. Big game, big night, seasoned players need to come to the party.
Hope the property team have packed plenty of this tonight. Can feel an absolute pounding ahead by the umps with Buddy on the other end.
2-8 in the last 20 years at the SCG
1-2 in the last 10 years
0-0 in the last 5 years
I'm not sure if it is as much of a fortress for the Swans as is once was with their current style of play.
They are 3-2 this year losing to Brisbane (-24) & Gold Coast (-14).
Wins against Geelong (30), North (11), & Essendon (58).
