Had the advantage against Petrie and Hale in the ruck, gave off some great hitouts to advantage including McVeigh's snap from 25m out.

he was absolutely superb last night against hte Roos. They were stupid to drop McIntosh imo, really gave us a big advantage in the ruck.
Spida also had a decent game last night. This surely has to be his last season imo, but by gee he's still a top quality tap ruckman. Cant do a lot else anymore sadly, but the footy brain is still well and truly ticking over. I hope he stays on to mentor our young ruckmen

I don't think it's a coincidence that his ruckwork has improved since Spida came to the club. His taps to advantage last night were sensational...And the Swans are the Premiers...The Ultimate Team...The Ultimate Warriors. They have overcome the highly fancied Hawks in brilliant style.

Shows the value of a quality ruckman against "tall" guys. Hale and Petrie are fwds, not ruckmen. Jolly & Everitt should beat them mercilessly. Much like they did against Carlton (Cloke & Kruezer).
Nonetheless, saying it and actually doing it are two different things. Thankfully, they got the job done on Saturday night.
Jolly was clearly the better of the two. Spida, excepting a couple of decisive touches in the last, was only slightly better than ordinary.
Hope Jolly carries the form into the game against Minson who's struck a purple patch recently and plays a similar, mobile, rucking role. If Jolly plays like he did on Saturday night, he should get us first touch at the stoppages which will be a huge advantage.Comment
