Tickets open tomorrow to the general public, so me and a few other boys are going to try and snag a couple of seats for Friday night against the Hawks. Goodesy's 300th game, its coming along so quickly because he has rarely missed a game, even playing through injuries sometimes. I think its a credit to him and the medical staff at the Swans that has helped get his body so right week after week.
Saturday night was amazing, a great atmosphere and an even better result, we dominated from the outset, and despite Ray Chamberlains best intentions, he didnt affect the outcome of the match. If he seriously gets a finals match next weekend I will be amazed, you canot have an umpire like him who makes the game about himself umpiring in finals, he will cost a side one day.
Hawks v Swans- obviously im going for the swans which will lead to a match up against Collingwood who we havent beaten in years (my family barracks for Collingwood, i know all about it). No Buddy, no Roughy, who will kick the hawks goals? Nicky Smith has beaten Milne twice, Steve Johnson, and Banfield in the last four weeks and looks the likely match up for a seemingly underdone Cyril Rioli. Hopefully Mummy doesnt get cited by the Match Review panel for his attempt at a spoil.
Eagles v Blues- surely at Subi, the eagles would be good enough, only one team has won over there all year, and if you need a hint, they wear red and white. Eagles beat Blues in Melbourne so the history is with them, and no Kreuzer, and potentially no Gibbs should account for potentially no Cox. Will be a good game though
