Game Thread Swans versus Port

[Robbo]

It's amazing what happens when you play attacking footy.

Moore kicked a beauty

First Quarter Swans 8 - 1 (49) Port 1 - 0 (6)

[Nico]

8 goals!


Has Micky O joined the midfield?

And it could have been more as C Bolton and O'Keefe did mongrel floaters into the forward line and Crouch got smothered when he should have gone long.

How much better are we when we go to the top of the square. It was the classic play of kicking to strong forwards and midfielders and small forwards running to the fall of the ball. Traditional footy that puts backlines under enormous pressure. My, O"keefe is a different footballer in the midfield. Hope we keep it up.

[31 hard at it]

Sorry to anyone reading this for updates but cannot leave watching this !

Unbelievable run from the backline and contested wins all over the ground.
Best quarter in years.
Go Swans

Grundy FLIES Mark of the year

Wish I could have seen that..the commentators are still talking about it.




Don't like the sound of things..it seems as though we have taken the foot off the pedal.

[waterfowl]

Its still good Hally goals

[waterfowl]

Motlop misses??? It was too easy for him

[waterfowl]

Half time Swans 11- 6 (72) Port 3 -3 (21)

[Foreign Legion]

Very enjoyable first half - not just because of the score though. Great running, skill and Grundy's mark was a highlight - not the resultant kick!

The run from the backline is fantastic and 9/10 times we are taking the quick, correct option.

Jolly playing very well but then again most of 'em are.

% would be handy - we need it at the moment.

Not really taken the foot off the pedal. We missed 3 easy shots and should be 14 goals. Also you can't keep the foot on the pedal all game. Port started to work harder and won more loose ball. Our disposal wasn't as spot on that quarter either. Our last line of defence is playing superbly.

Also noticed Jared Moore is covering a lot more ground this week.
