At the end of the first half, we were asking each other what these boys have done with our team!

The second quarter was amazing. It was thrilling to see us play like pros, with most of the luck in our favour, the crowd lifting for their team... If only we could dominate like that each week. *sigh*

I think the Swans are are great attacking team when they have a crack and so I would like to see more quarters like that. Was hoping to see some flexibility in the lineup in the final ten minutes -- specifically I wanted to see how B2 managed in the forwards, especially working off Pebbles -- but Roosy was smart not to jeopardise things for my whims.

I thought, once again, Pebbles was on fire. He was in everything, and yet some did not list him in the best?!?! Sheesh! But it's not unusual, though...

All in all, I liked the win. There were periods of the roller coaster ride the boys are famous for providing their fans with, though on the whole, it was a complete shellacking and I LOVED it!

Still yet to see the tackle that knocked Kirky out. I saw him fall over and knew that he was not with it. But what a dude -- fighting with the trainers who were trying to escort him off the field... Neither have I seen the incident where B2 copped his bloody nose in the final quarter. So much excitement to watch on the replay!

Never thought I'd say this but Thank God for the ABC.

Imagine my delight when I returned to my hotel room at a tiny resort 2 hours out of Manila & ABC Asia Pacific had the Swans v Geelong broadcast!

Alleluia Auntie! I would hate to have missed that. Unequivocally our best win of the year.
