Another game 3rd v 6th only separated by %. West Coast have looked good and with Priddis returning look strong. However game is at the small SCG where Sydney seem to thrive so this may tilt the scales slightly in Sydneys favour.

So apparently we haven't played at the SCG since 2010 and have not won there since 1999 :-[
Swan's are favourites here and fair enough. Would be incredible if we get the W, but if we don't than as long as it's a solid showing I'll be content, well as content as I can be for a loss
Let's go Eagles! Win this and everyone takes notice!
some ripper match ups in this one, should be another good game!
JPK out would be massive :o makes it a real 50/50 imo if he can't get up

Hmm, not sure, they have another midfield depth to cover. Would say its 80/20 to swans with him. Without him 75/25. Still backing in Sydney.
Hope we dont play like we did against hawks. Intensity is what im looking for!

Their mid depth is good, but he's still a big out. He's right up there for clearances even if his fantasy output had been down slightly

Yeah just a fish in a huge pond of them... Parker, Hannabery, Mitchell, Jack, LLoyd, Cunningham, scarily enough, theyll find a way to get clearances. We will get first use with Nic Nat but ;).
No late changes, however
Adam Curley â€@AdamCurleyMedia
Some Swans having a kick in the ground but no sign of Josh Kennedy @afl #AFLSwansEagles
How good is the game going atm.
dunno who to pick in this one.
Bugger
Adam Curley
Swan Josh Kennedy out on the ground for warm-up, looks to be right #AFLSwansEagles
Is it raining in Sydney, because if it is, might be worth putting Sinclair on the pine for Paps or McCarthy?
Game is officially starting 10 mins later
A parachuter landed badly on the ground and needed medical attention
Wow i'm a potato
swapped papley onto the field absent-mindedly with 2 seconds until lockout
Need decent games from NicNat, Emac, Shuey
Need poor games from Priddis, JJK, Parker, Hanners, Grundy, Hewett
Not too confident haha

Hmmm, game winning goal? Gets scaled in SC, not in BXVs :P
This is absurd.
I bring Papley in after 2 100 games, he proceeds to score 40 & 20. I trade him out for Byrne-Jones and he's had two shots already.
:-[
JJK!
I'm loopholing Papley and Mills in this game, got the E on both of them
We need to keep Buddy to 4 or less, so that wasn't ideal :(
Went to put on a Buddy first goal scorer bet to take advantage of Crownbet's promotion.
Accidentally put it on him for first Swans goal scorer 8)
Geez it's good to have Welly back in
Ughhhhh
Nic Nat ::)

What was Papley's BE in DT?
Papley's DE must be crap because he is only on 20SC from 8 touches and 5 marks
Need NicNat to lift here

Any idea why McInnes is rucking so much? Nic Nat was only onfield 70% of that quarter.

39
He's on 25SC 51DT at 1/4 time.
Taking a lot of marks at half forward but keeps turning it over.
Not a bad opening qtr by Parker
6 touches, all contested at 83% and 7 tackles. Not to mention 3 FF's too
Papley 44% and 4 clangers is killing his score

His disposal has been putrid. A ton of turnovers so far, going at 44.4% and 4 clangers. I reckon he might have already cleared his DT BE in that quarter alone.....
Hewett with the donuts that quarter and EMack just the two touches.
Parker I think is on pace to have most tackles in a game with 7 in that quarter.
Papleys D/e is at 44% and that accounts for the difference. Anyway 3/4 to fix that.

I thought it would have been a lot higher, I don't know why the hell I traded him out, I must have been looking at the SC numbers for both :-X

Blasphemy!
I hope Petracca isn't late in so I can bank Papley's score as long as he continues like this (and stops butchering it)
Nothing like a bit of Neil Diamond to pump up everyone at the ground....

He sure is, record is 19 by Ziebell (vs Melbourne this year), and Jude Bolton (vs Eagles in 2011)
No one else kept Georgie Hewett right?

I thought I remembered in the 60s as well but when I click on his name now it's definitely 39.
all that domination and its back to a 4 pt lead :-[
Despite the turnovers Paps is playing really well. Glad Milera forced my hand to keep him :)
Paps is going to ton up in the first half in DT the way he is going.
Hi, I'm Top Papley

papleys B/e in SC is 62 so that is where you probably seen the 60.

PAPS!!!!!
Flower.
Come on boys, Lift!
How many times this season have our defenders failed to kill the ball and the other team scores a goal out of it
Really disappointed with that qtr. Should be in a better position
Need to lift in the second half boys!
Traded Papley and Hewitt is spudding things up, you live and learn I guess.
Papley is in everything at the moment. Moves well and gets in the right spots. Like Rusty I kept him as I had Milera to offload. Decided to field him in preference to McCarthy and MBrown. Is a POD in all 9 of my FF leagues... only opponent who has him on the field is my old man in a family/public league. :)

What a 2nd Quarter from Nic Nat though! The goal helped at the beginning but I saw quite a few more HTAs in that Quarter.
Maybe they were trying to rest him in Q1 with the knowledge of rain coming? Still only running at 75% TOG, compare to Sinclair who is close to 90.

I traded Milera and kept Paps too :)
I figured Paps is playing and held his spot, and a BE of 61 wouldn't have seen him lose much cash anyway. Glad I kept him. Might be the first decision I've got right all year
Papley chillin on my bench
H/T SC Scores
(https://i.gyazo.com/c398cc3c2bb762ce4d734de3508989f2.png)
Hanners,Parker,McGovern,Mills and Nic Nat all reside in my SC team :D
Eagles making a big play here.
All began from Buddy's stupid FA on Masten.
Bang Bang!
We needed those 2 - now lets kick more!
Parker, NN, Paps and Mills for me in this 8)
Some of our decisions by foot are really frustrating
I sometimes wonder if we are AFL players or Auskickers with some of the stupid stuff they do
Mills hasn't moved this quarter.
Why are the Eagles players wearing black armbands?

Board member passed away last night
Not liking the look of this, we really need the next goal
Ahh crap
McVeigh looked really rusty early in this one but has settled and kicked a couple
Papley and Mills were on track for nice scores but their 3rd has been quet, and now they are on track for those awkward scores which are debatable to bank
Would like to see them both go 75+ if possible, and I'd lock them in
Georgie is starting to lift
4 point qtr for Paps :(
EMack is the one killing me in both comps. I forgot the Buddy factor and the weather isn't helping, but I was hoping for at least 50 in both

Who will your choice/s be to bench for Mills RD?
I could bench either Kerridge or B Kennedy. Will probably bench Kennedy if Mills goes 75+.

I'm benching Menuadue, Kerridge v Freo should get a fair bit of pill and I see Bennedy pocketing a couple of goals with the Tiges lacking a really good small defender.
Someone needs to install a chill button in the ABC box for Nathan Burke. Guys been blasting West Coast all afternoon and slightly irritating to listen to. :o
Dammit Buddy
if you were kicking straight you'd be on 100 SC. :(
flower sake Jetta
Papley has kicked two damn goals off the ground.
Seriously, go away. >:(

I probably wouldn't have benched him for Byrne-Jones or Ruggles as they were my other two defensive options but I was still hoping for a bit more.
What's Kennedy up to?
A respectable second half from Hewett despite donuts in Q1 when the game was still up for grabs.
Should hold his spot and has put up a handy score of 60+.
Come on Parker! I don't want to have to deal with an awkward 120 vc score
Cheers guys :)
Sort of wanted a 120+ score from Nic Nat, but don't think I'll be getting it.
Hanners weekly injury
Hmmm Parker 124 pre-scaling....
flower it, I'm going to lock it in, hopefully goes up 3 or 4 more points
91 from Mills means his BE will be low again, looking very good for a Rocky upgrade in 2 weeks.
That paratrooper broke his pelvis :'(
So apparently we can't roll up to the SCG and play 20 minutes of good footy and expect to come away with anything.
It's also apparent that Sydney are a 2929277748 times better Tam than us in the wet. Lets pray for no rain through September.
