Sydney V Collingwood
Some thoughts:
- First we play West Coast when Ben Cousins makes his big comeback and now we play Collingwood when Nathan Buckley makes his big comeback. Obviously there was a lot of hype surrounding the game and motivation for the players to do well.
- With that loss I am doubtful that we can make any significant inroads into the finals. Our place in the finals is now in jeopardy. We have almost lost control of our destiny and need to rely on these around us to lose. Still hope with a good win over Hawthorn next week.
- Thanks to Fordy for pointing my attention to my previous blog about Collingwood being unimpressive. I shall stand by these coments and try to stand on the notion that they were that inspired to 'do it for Buckley' that they played above themselves. Unimpressiveness to return within two weeks.

Yeah it was an impressive mozz. Jekyllnhydingwood. How about trying the reverse? On (say) Thursday, write about how well Hawthorn are travelling and how you doubt the Swans can get over them, and you should be right going into finals. :)
One thing about this year's finals series - anything can happen, particularly if your guys can start with a home final from 5th or 6th to limit travel. There's quite a few teams with very little finals experience, and I'd imagine that a Hawthorn or even Geelong side would be a bit nervous going into a semi or prelim against Sydney. (I'm bloody glad that my heart won't be subjected to another Eagles v Swans qualifying final.)
