Sydney vs Fremantle, 22nd May 2010 - Match Report
Another year, another RWO match report. In hindsight, this was a bad one to pick. I try to snare Freo at home because we are usually guaranteed a win, and the Dockers give me a giggle in a "they're so inoffensive, it's hard to hate them" sort of way. Little did I expect that I would go into this game having missed watching the last two games entirely through various circumstances - as far as I was concerned, the last time I saw a game, we were on fire and on top of the ladder! So what ha... -

Cats make Swans pay for poaching Mumford - Round 7 Match report
The word on the street was that the Geelong Cats were still upset at the Sydney Swans for poaching their up and coming Ruckman, Shane Mumford, and the proceeding game on Sunday May 9 was case in point. After a solid first half effort by the Swans, the Cats pulled away after half-time piling on 12 goals to four in the second half in a 19.12 (126) to 9.5 (59) percentage boosting win for the reigning premiers. Before the match, I had hopes that if the Cats were still upset at the Swans that this,...

PREVIEW: Swans take on history and the Cats
Sydney vs Geelong, Round 7. Skilled Stadium, Sunday May 9, 1.10pm
For all the talk of ?one week at a time?, history weighs heavily on footy, and it?s certainly making its presence felt at Skilled Stadium on Sunday.
The Cats haven?t lost there since 2007. They?ve won their last 18 at Skilled and if you include ?home games? at Etihad and the MCG - the AFL does - they hold the league record for 25 home wins in a row. Since the Swans last beat them in round 5, 2006 at ... -

Sydney v West Coast, Round 5, match review
The weather was a little weird, but the temperature outstanding for the latest nouvelle 'traditional rivalry' to play for some kind of minor cup or trophy: Sydney v West Coast. That said, what followed was hardly an appropriate inaugural match for commemorating the horror of war, and the ultimate sacrifice made by those on board the HMAS Sydney II on 19 November 1941. (A more fitting game would... -

Round 2: Adelaide Crows vs Sydney Swans Match Report
Swans Break Adelaide Drought in Dashing Display It seemed like an ordinary Sunday in Adelaide, hot, sunny and dry. 36,000 fans lined up outside AAMI stadium so that they might see the next instalment in a long running series of Swans defeats at the hands of the Crows in the stronghold of AAMI stadium. This is, at the very least, what the fans were expecting, and it seemed that even the idea of a hard fought Swans victory would be dismissed with little more than a broad smile and a pat on the ... -

Round 2 Sydney vs Crows Preview
I should be fond of AAMI. Many of my best formative experiences happened there. The 1976 grand final. The Alice Cooper and Bob Dylan concerts. My first taste of a beer that wasn?t Southwark. And yet I don?t like it. The Crows, who abandoned it to the Power last year, don?t like it. The AFL and the state government, who are tipping $450 million into Adelaide Oval, don?t like it. And neither do the Swans. We routinely knock off Port there, but we can beat the Power anywhere. We ... -

The ?new look? Sydney Swans took to the field at ANZ Stadium on Saturday night with six new players but the result was anything but new as the Swans lost to St Kilda in Round 1 for the third straight year.
