      How can Jude be missing in action? been getting the most of the ball in our team and having his best season. How about we get someone who knows something about the swans to analyse our team next time

        Pathetic report which simply panders to Melbourne-based stereotypes. Jude Bolton MIA??? You are kidding - by far and away our best player this year.

        She probably thought she was clever throwingin the term "Ugly".

          Simple. He hasn't appeared on the Footy Show even once, or been spotted having a coffee with Eddie. Hell, when was the last time the bloke even bothered to attend a red carpet opening with that luvly Delta?

          They are rite to be disdainful!

                This was my feedback to the Hun:

                The quality of the Swans' midyear report was rather disappointing - in a word, it was 'ugly'! "Barry Hall and Jude Bolton have been quiet." Hall has kicked 32 goals in 11 games, fifth in the competition. Bolton is probably having his best season ever, averaging 22 disposals per game, eighth in the competition in tackles, sixth in Inside 50s, and leading the competition in clearances.
                Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.

                    Is he really? Even ahead of the likes of Mitchell?

                        That is unbelievably staggeringly bad and I am a person who always tries to see the best in people. That is so staggeringly incorrect as to be reportable to someone, but who?

                          Yep - although Mitchell has played one less game, but the difference is minimal. The stats are quite surprising actually.

                          On a per game basis the leaders are:

                          Mitchell 6.2
                          Bolton 6.1
                          Akermanis 5.3
                          Kirk 5.3
                          Judd 5.1
                          Hodge 5.0
                          Ball 4.9
                          Koutafides 4.9
                          Simpson 4.8
                          Dal Santo 4.7

                          On a team basis, Swans are 6th on a differential basis (36-34).
