SCG
This is it folks - last game for the year.
Clearly flag favorites along with the Crows, they will take some beating on their own ground.
On the one hand, the smaller dimensions of the SCG should suit our negating game style, but more bodies closer together will definitely help the Swans. Bigger, stronger, more experienced all over the park.
Then there's the Mills revenge factor.
Swans by six goals.

Not without a chance despite the opposition being the red hot flag favourites. Was it late last year that we got within a goal at the SCG? Never know your luck in the big smoke.
Blues by 3pts.
2017-16th
2018-Wooden Spoon
2019-16th
2020-dare to dream? 11th is better than last I suppose
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time

Zac Jones is one love tap to the guts off suspension (if he doesn't go this week). I'd be niggling the cr@p out of him and reminding him that he can't do anything about it.

The round following us beating them was the start of their run. They will want to demolish us to pay us back for that loss. Can't see us getting within 5 goals.

It will be a real test for us without doubt. I can't see us taking a backward step and I'm sure we will see some fireworks.

Smedts will probably miss so it most likely comes down to Graham or Cunningham.
Graham kicked a few goals and had 24 touches in the VFL, Cunningham had 20 so it's a toss up.
If Cunningham gets the nod it's not good news for Nick, I'd probably go with Cunningham.
Can't see us winning but confidence is a wonderful thing, I don't think it will be a blow out, looking forward to Liam V Buddy.
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.
