BookMan Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Any suggestions on the best pub around Silom area to watch the match tonight? Did you find a place? Maybe the Irish pub, I think it is Molly Malones, on Convent Road? The important game is tonight , Freo v Swans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will27 Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 The scary part for me for tonights winner, is that the Hawks still won without significant contributions from Buddy, Cyril, Rougheah and Breust. History is littered with sides who have lost GF's and won the next year. The Hawks will start as firm favourites next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BookMan Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Sydney chairman Richard Colless slams Paul Roos for trying to lure emerging Swans prospectsPAUL Roos is accused of trampling on his legacy at the Swans by trying to recruit young Sydney stars to join him at the Demons. The new Melbourne coach, who guided Sydney to their 2005 premiership and established the famed Bloods culture, has set his sights on highly rated Swans academy players. Chairman Richard Colless is furious at the actions new Melbourne coach who is attempting to lure the academy’s best prospect 18 year old Lloyd Perris to the Demons. “Paul’s actions massively devalue his standing at the club,” Colless told theDaily Telegraph.“He led the club to it’s first premiership in 72 years. He helped establish the Bloods culture, he is on a pedestal at the Swans and I’m unbelievably disappointed in his actions.

Will27 Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 (edited) Geez, I hope Bristle, Richo and Lingy get the gig tonight. This was Bruce a few weeks ago "cometh the man, cometh the champion". I can't remember but it must've been about Judd or Hodge. And what about last night when Stevie J had a snap for his 4th goal "I wish he'd kicked it, not because I want Geelong to win, because I love him". Settle Bruce.

tigerfish Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 wow ! the intensity both on and off the field is quite amazing and something to behold. never seen anything like it in an AFL match before. the Dockers are really giving it to the Swans and i was always told and lead to believe that Perth resembled a sleepy over 60"s retirement village.

Swans being made to look like a bottom 8 side. Midfield shut down. Sustained pressure from Freo. Freo taking marks across the ground, finding the loose man, not giving Sydney any run or time at all. No way u could see Sydney coming back tonight Can only hope it doesn't turn into a 100 point loss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ripstanley Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 (edited) Big win for Fremantle. Ron you must be very happy to have them in the Grand Final. They took the foot off in the last quarter to save players from injuries. I was very impressed with the send off of Jude Bolton by the Fremantle players after the game. I hope they play next week like they did tonight. I for one will be hoping they beat Hawthorn. I will be tipping them to win.

BookMan Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Ron19 will be a happy chappie..Probably also Will27 and OldCroc? Farmerjo too? A lot to be happy about really... Fremantle played a blinder the first half and could have been up by 60 points at the main break. Relentless pressure, good marking, hard tackling, brilliant tagging and nullification of Sydneys top players. Good team work all over the field. They just know where there team mates are going to be and what their roles are. The inaccuracy in front was a small concern, but maybe just nerves. At no stage did Sydney look like they could win. After that performance It is very hard to split the teams for next week 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a bright note for the swans brigade,dont think they will lose any postion on ladder next year with the talent they have to come back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantSmith Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 The only issue for the boys is Roosey next season... I potentially can see a couple going down, Mummy would be one, especially if he wants to go home. Jamar would learn a thing or two.. Can't see anyone else looking to go, let alone the Swans trading with Melbourne. Possibly a few reserves players looking though.. Going to miss mad Monday for the first time in a few years at The Forrester in Slurry Hills... One of the seriously more civilized teams... Oh well.. That's footy boys.. Love it to hate it..
