The thing I enjoyed the most is the fact that 15 minuets into the first 1/4 , and being about 25 points down and looking by far the lesser team, some how this Swans team regrouped and turned the game completly around, with out having to wait for the quarter time spray from the coaches - in order to begin the implementation of their game plan.
In other words, the boys found the necessary volition and inspiration within themselves, during the actual game, to go on and turn the game. A sign of a well coached and very confidant team that has gelled together.
This is very important to the potential of this team and speaks volumes of what they are capable of as a group. I am very very excited about our potential this season.
Also if you read the melbourne and National press(papers- I dont watch television, except for game day), no one has really noticed us yet (at least not in the way The Saints have been recognized as contenders, and the usual supects have been reognized ie: Port and Brissie !)
This is great, cos as good and as versatile as we are playing, we still have the possability of slipping under the radar !
I think the way this team is playing and the depth of the list and the brilliance of the coaching means that we may have a really good shot this year. Remember, but for a 2 point defeat to the premeirs at the "gabatoir" and we would probabley be being appraised above Saint kilda at this early stage of the seasone, considering that our wins have come over teams higher on the ladder than they.
It is very early days I know but I think this is the best Swans team I have seen and I am looking forward to seasone 2004 very very much!
thank you.
