    As always, a good job. I look forward to reading the previews and reports each week (except when we have a bad loss, of course).

      I love the photo with the forward formation - MOL & BBB deep, with a class crumber & another ready to pounce. Not quite sure why it isn't like this 90% of the time....

        Thanks.

        The photos are excellent.

        BTW - Whitnall kicked 5 goals.

          Pfft... Just more self-opinionated, negative garbage from an obvious bandwagoner with no real allegiance to the club, knowledge of the game or ability to construct a sentence. And of course, no idea of the realities.

            The photos were good, but I noticed one thing when I was sitting in the Vertigo stand at the game. The overhead view is good for photos of the players' positions.

            When C.Bolt went for his four-bounce run, it was possible to see that there was nobody near him on either side.

            From the Vertigo stand it's also possible to get good photos of the cheer squad!

              Yeah I know - I simply had to copy all the newspaper articles - much easier that way. I also had some critical input from some locals here who have a much better appreciation of the key aspects.

                    "26 scoring shots from 55 I50"

                    This is the one that bugs me the most.

                    A few others have commented on the rubbish pass offs from a player within kicking distance, particularly so prevalent in the first quarter. Rarely do any of these passes not result in a turnover. When the F50 is flooded a shot or at the least centring ball to the pack is gotta be a better option.

                      Or kicking to the top of the square.

                      I'm on the Chandwagon!!!

                      If you cannot compete for the premiership, it's better to be young and exciting than middle-aged and dowdy.

                        We still suffer severely from Hallitis . . . because he is such a prodigious mark on the lead (and now team captain ), all the other Swans look for BBB even when they are in range themselves.

                        ROK has learnt to live with being ignored in favour of Hall, but the two times I've seen Vogels play I almost despaired at the way he just continually leads and gets overlooked. It must be so frustrating for him!

                        I noticed this week that Jolly was also receiving short shrift for his leads . . . but he doesn't seem like the kind of bloke who will put up with being ignored for too long?

                            Better than halitosis...

                            But yes, we should consider other options more often. We became far too Lockett-centric previously and it's very restrictive.
