You'd think they wouldn't, but who knows what'll happen when Marc Murphy comes back.

As much as I hate Carlton, they are a chance in all of their games after Collingwood... if they find form.

And they only leave Melbourne once... and that is to play Gold Coast. They don't play West Coast, Geelong or Hawthorn, apart from Sydney they have none of the really hard teams.

They have a really good run home and if they weren't so out of form you'd back them in for nearly all of those games.

Don't count them out.

Yeah, they're a chance, but getting belted by top teams at this time of the year says a lot.

Even the Roos came out after being belted and beat the Saints because they knew it was time to get going for finals.

Even if Carlton gets up, they will go up against Crows, Cats, Saints, maybe even Roos in week 1, and are a good chance to lose.

It's like the lower divisions of English soccer. Highly contested, tight-knit battle for a play-off position. It's great... well would be if my team weren't also involved... It's just nerve-racking

LOL yeah. As a Richmond supporter, I'm not use to going into games with a chance of winning. Every week is the most stressful week of my life.

Heard a rumour that uncontracted Ben Reid from Collingwood is Sydney bound to play alongside his brother Sam, from a fairly unreliable source so take it with a grain of salt.

If true they can thank Clokes gold digging for losing an AA CHB, most of the time Sydney use their money well when they pursue a target this would be a big get.

Good news tbh. I really dislike Vickery, he is a selfish player and I hate watching him play. I hope this opens the door for Tom Derickx.

The Ben Reid rumour has been around for a while and would be great for the Swans but I want us to grab Cloke as we need another key forward.

I think we're capable of it but it would be a huge first move at the start of free agency.

Whats wrong with Sam Reid? lololololol

Sydney have 2 potentially great forwards in Sam Reid and TDL, but Reid can't kick and TDL never gets a game.

Why does TDL never get a game? Knows how to mark and is a beautiful kick. Still a young kid, so you can't expect him to be up every week, which makes it unfair that he gets dropped constantly.

Reason is the Swans don't think he does enough defensively which is also why Morton can't get a game despite them both kcking bags of goals in the ressies, it seems strange to me.

Reid could be great but the main reason he's struggling is because he now demands the oppositions best defender as he's our only key forward, having Cloke would take this burden off him.

Imagine if you had Reid, TDL, Morton, Jetta, Goodes and O'Keefe running around that forward-line. It'd be considered one of the best in the league, all of them is capable of a bag on any given day.

How's Mark Lecras trying to get back for the finals series? That would be some recovery 8 months off a traditional knee reco.

He'd be a very handy player to add some x factor if he can get in decent touch by then.

Peter Burgoyne wasn't bad either still a gun, I think he still plays for one of the local district sides.

Motlops put on a fair bit of weight seeing as he's only been out of the game less than half a season lol.
