Confident about a win tonight. We've been in pretty good form all season.

We're missing a few, most importantly the Captain, and the lack of footy Dick and Goldsack have behind them is a concern (a pity N.Brown is injured at the same time as Maxwell, would have been a better in). However, the Swans play a very structured game, they lack the kind of flair and the defensive zoning that can put us off our game. Pies by 28 points.
Well done boys!

Who's our captain in Maxwell's absence?

^^Don't know.

I'd go for O'Brien.
Swan would be a chance. Maybe Pendlebury.

We need to stamp our authority back on the competition with a win tonight. My tip is Pies by 38 points, with Ball BOG.

One thing's for sure - the Saints showed how to beat the Cats last night. Toughness and hardness.

Good choice, if so. Pendles and O'Brien are the two main options. O'Brien's the more motivational and vocal on-field, but that's not the only consideration. Swan's our best player, but I don't really see him as captain material.
Well done boys!
