Swans can cause some damage: Roos
August 31st 2008 04:30
SYDNEY coach Paul Roos believes his side is capable of causing some damage in the finals.
The Swans secured a home elimination final with a 61-point defeat of Brisbane at the SCG on Saturday night and will now meet either the Kangaroos or the Saints next weekend.
Speaking at his post-match press conference, Roos said his side had shown enough in the win over the Lions to suggest they could trouble a few sides in September.
"Based on our game last week we were never going to do much damage playing like that," Roos said.
"I think if we play like we did tonight we can certainly do some damage."
"Every team bar probably the top-two, Geelong and Hawthorn, have had really up-and-down seasons."
"So it's good (to be in the finals), you're in the mix, teams have had reasonable form and then down patches and we've be exactly the same as probably six teams in the final eight, so hopefully we can play as well as we did tonight."
