DRAGONZ
You've Got A Friend
Hudghton is playing his first match in almost two months, and he will be responsible for marking Hall.
Hall is going to make it his prerogative to run Hudghton up the ground all night.
I am hoping that big Max just doesn't have the match fitness in him to cope with this, and Hall can come over the top of him late in the game.
Realistically, the Saints piss on our team in terms of skill and ability. That's just how it goes.
However, for our ability, we are a better team unit than St Kilda can ever even hope to be.
Like it was said by Smokey_22, Sydney can't be satisfied with tying up the ball and hoping for a last quarter burst. They tried this earlier in the year against St Kilda and got pummelled by 50.
It's up to the Swans to take the initiative, utilise the run of Kennelly and Barry, pump the ball into the forward line long and direct from halfback through Kennelly, Williams and Ablett, and give Hall, Davis, O'Loughlin and O'Keefe as much time as possible.
Even though the Swannies have named Davis in the centre and Williams in the forward line, I doubt it will happen. Willo might be injured with his double cork, but he would do ANYTHING to win this match. I expect to see him in the middle, with Davis teaming up with O'Loughlin in the forward line.
My heart says Swans, but my head says Saints. I hope the heart wins out!
