Kent is out, Lonie not playing and Parker still can't touch the ball.


As ex-president Peter Summers said:
“If we are going to be a contender, we may as well plan to win the bloody thing.”

Long throw which must be returned on the full.
It needed the elevation to make the distance.
Perhaps the umpire will demonstrate during the week how good he is at throwing the ball 25 metres to a target ON THE FULL!

50M for the extra 0.2 sec it took for the slightly steeper parabola.
that 50 metre penalty wars pure bulls***. But the maggot apologists on here will still say it was justified.

Ryder is all class. And I’m not just talking about his ruckwork. He won a few contested balls off the deck that quarter. When he gets his hands on the footy he’s clean and he makes good decisions

We'll open game up next quarter. Should win from here. Gresh great. Clark and Coff are fast becoming elite. We'll win 2017 draft period because if those two.

Parker is not showing he is AFL standard so far.

Hope he does something in the second half.

Really hope so as I like the guy.

Third quarter is the premiership quarter.
We need to win this quarter and outscore them - I know this sounds obvious, but we must put the feet on the Swans throat tonight. They are only just hanging in. Rampe is showing signs that his injury is restricting him.
They will try to make it a slugfest if we don't turn the afterburners on. I think the fact is it at the 'Gabba and not at the SCG or Docklands gives us more space on the wings if we win the ball in the centre.
I think the match will open up in the last quarter.

A lot of effort for not much result in the second half of that qtr
Yep, the Swans fought hard & we didn't quite nail them.

13 more inside 50s for a 22 point lead.

He had as much of that ball as Marshall did at the other end.
Play on - no Mark!

This will sound odd because I've a soft spot for Savage but does anyone else feel a wave of Richo'ness when he has the ball?

The Swans are having a crack but it’s like we have Richo as guest coach this quarter.

He has been great without the ball but agree some long bombs to nowhere.

14 inside 50s to only 4 this quarter.

Game on now.

Really missing midfield presence. Where are you guys?
