GAME DAY THREAD - Sydney v Brisbane - ONE LATE CHANGE!

[gossipcom]

Free Kick count at half time:

Lions - 13
Swans - 8

So we pinned some back there

Top disposal getters:

Fossie - 14
Goodes / O'Keefe - 12
Bolton - 10

Crouchy (9) vs Aker (6)

ETA: Chambers stats are pretty impressive right now. Almost equal to Jolly only 3 less disposals.

[Provost]

I wish Micky O was playing like we know he still can.

[ugg]

We should be further ahead. Bugger.

[swans_premiers]

Geez some of you are very negative, we're playing quite well.

Chambers is on FIRE! Actually he's ruckwork is pretty good. Mick O looks spent already.

The free kick against Jolly, which potentially cost McVeigh a goal, was absolute rubbish and I'm glad Dermie thinks so too.

It was ridiculous. You have to actually lay a decent tackle surely, and if the guy gets rid of it as he is tackled then surely it should be play on. Absolutely stupid.

What about the free Hall should have got at the end there!

Some good work but we need to put it on the scoreboard. We are dominating all over the ground.

Yes we are but we still should be further ahead. One bad Quarter from us and its game on.

Its been the rule for some time now, so I don't think there's anything to complain about there. The Hall (non) free kick on the other hand was absolutely ridiculous.

we should be a couple more goals ahead - awesome stuff from goodsey

we need more from ROK and magic up forward, plus schneids should have nailed a couple of chances

man we miss jason ball - jolly doesnt look the same without him there

Oh I know its a rule. I do umpiring. However there should surely be a little bit of leniency there. The rule was brought in to stop two ruckman going up, not to stop a quick clearance.

Oh well, what do you do.

Jolly seems to be really struggling with that injury, plus got a hard hit in the opening minute.

Sun must have been in the umps eyes, how else could you explain the missed free to Hall
So far so good, but the Swans need to go on to it..

I've got the volume down on the Tele and listening to the call on MMM. Much better than channel 9's effort.

My god Leo Barry. I can kick better than that. Shocker. Costs us a goal.
