With Ablett and Hall back, the Suns put up more of a fight last week but they still lost by 77, giving them a 7 game losing streak and an average losing margin of 87 over their last 5. The Swans are on the up, currently sitting in 2nd and likely wanting a percentage boost to cement their spot in the top 2. Gold Coast have never beaten Sydney and it doesn't look likely to change this week.

Swans will win this fairly comfortably

Not so sure on that. It will be extremely wet 10 inches rain forecast from Tonight till late tomorrow so will be a slogfest which may help the coast. Definitely will not be a high scoring match. Still trying to decide whether Ablett or Hanners in the conditions is worth the VC.

Last game Swans played in the wet was against the Lions at the Gabba so you might be right Ringo

Still think Swans will do it comfortably. Buddy is due a bag, so unless it pelts down I have him for 8+

Think this is the game that will get Mills the rising star nod as well.

BOM has gone from 35-100mm for GC yesterday to 45-120mm now, hopefully this ones a slopfest as I don't have DanHan, Parker, Spudlett and the like ;)

6.14.50 to 2.7.19 final scoreline?

Mill out and Rose in

No other changes

Don't think I've seen such a slop fest since the 90's!

Just goign for a walk to find myself a nice high building. Throw myself off. I am poison this year, so far have 3
captain scores under 60. Tossing up whether to keep Danger or throw the dice on Gaz. Moved my C to Grimley and at last minute moved it back. Danger upgraded to 124. Gaz is looking like absolute showere at the moment. Another league cash game down the drain. Cannot wait for the season to be over.

This rain is madness!

Lonergan going HUGE this quarter

Parker is a flop.

May have gone too early here! ;D

Davis making me pay for benching him AGAIN.

51 @ HT. If he goes over 90 again and Smith goes sub 70 I'll be very annoyed. ::)
