No, they are shorter than in the H&A season. 17 1/2 minutes (I think) compared to the normal of 20+ time-on.
The lead probably won't last but I am very impressed by how well drilled the Swans cygnets are. Apart from some poor decision making when delivering forward (understandable), they are all doing exactly what they should be in terms of chasing and tackling.
Great quarter from O'Dwyer. Fantastic kick from Jack to find Davis. Terlich finding the ball well. Bird certainly doesn't look out of place in this company. Even Faulks is holding his own, with some courageous spoiling.Comment

Very impressed with Mattner. How good will he be this year. I can't believe the crows let him go.
LRT is showing plenty of promise for a great year as well. He has been everywhere.
I have been particularly impressed by O'Dwyer, Bird and Jack. Jack's sidestep was straight out of his father's league days. Pity he missed the goal.
Jesse White the man mountain. Pity he hasn't lined up for goals yet.
Bevan same old same old.
I genuinely believe that this year, the "older 'legs" will be under pressure and about time.
Swans winning clearances at half time. They have been very quick in this area and the only thing that has been letting them down is hitting targets.
Swans coaching panel trying something different. Roos is on the sideline geared up with the ear phones and mike. Probably a NFL thing.
Dorks will probably eventually switch into gear and win but I'd say there are a few of the "older legs" would be worried this year.
Dare I say I will be watching A League prelim after, I have to support the Mariners.In memory of my little Staffy - Dicey, 17.06.2005 to 1.12.2011- I'll miss you mate.Comment
