Interesting things from that game:

- WC forward line still crap

- StKilda might have the talent but only a few players have the heart to really put in

Both pleasing analysis.

No... after what you said the other month about Judd I watched his game particularly and he was the best on the ground.

Pigs arse. He kicked to contests, to the feet of his team-mates and Spriggs-like to the general vicinity of a team-mate. Rarely an effective possession to an Eagles player following a Judd kick in the GF.

Now that is actually quite funny. I counted every one of his possessions one day somewhere about 11-13 went either directly to Swans players or toa contest where there were more Swans than Eagles, or to open spaces where Swans players were there first.

I have my first tip for the season. YEAH!

I don't. I thought the E Girls would be unsettled by all the off-season shenanikans.

They can now hit the nightclubs with their underworld friennds for the rest of the weekend.

Dal Santo is now the most important player at the Saints - stood out in terms of class from most players on the ground. Reiwoldt, Ball & Gehrig remain important but Del Santo is the one that gets them moving. Very good footballer.

WCE are still going to rely on the midfield & Cox to kick goals - can they really do it again this season? I remain skeptical.

Dare I say it, I thought both teams looked a lot more "Swans-like" in their playing style than last year tho that may be "first game blues".

Further interesting thing:

Harvey needs a hair cut.

Seriously! Is it a mid-life crisis or has just been too busy lately? I'm using the latter for my own state of hirsutely disrepair.

Great footballer, but I never get the feeling that he's going to turn the game. A bit like Hodge at Hawthorn - good player, uses the ball well, always about, but doesn't really seem to stamp himself on the game. Dal Santo is better than Hodge in this regard and I I'm not saying he cruises or anything, but I feel they could both do more, although I'm not sure exactly what.

Harvey remains the guy for StKilda that just puts everything into his game week to week.

Riewoldt, Hayes, Hudghton also give it everything. A few others on and off. The rest only when things are going well.

What was it with the two Saints players pushing and shoving each other during a quarter time break? Great too see that not much has changed at that pathetic football club.
