The injury-hit Sydney Swans are choosing to ignore the AFL ladder and are on high alert for their SCG clash against Richmond.
A home game against the second-last Tigers might seem easy on paper, but flag-fancies Sydney are licking their wounds heading into Saturday's clash.
The second-placed Swans' seven-game winning streak came to an end after a 27-point away loss to Geelong, losing livewire forwards Tom Papley (calf) and Malcolm Rosas Jnr (ankle) in the process.
Sydney captain Callum Mills also failed to prove his fitness with a calf injury, while hard-running ruck Brodie Grundy has been managed.
Richmond are looking to continue their momentum after an 18-point 'Dreamtime at the 'G' win over struggling Essendon, but are similarly injury hit.
