    Isn't this a Fox game so it wouldn't be Quarterbrain

      A terribly scrappy first quarter. Yes we have a few inexperienced players but the Dees have way more and we should be doing better. I don't see us losing from here, but don't expect an impressive win either...

      I'm on the Chandwagon!!!

      If you cannot compete for the premiership, it's better to be young and exciting than middle-aged and dowdy.

          Worst quarter of the year that I've 'witnessed'. I don't just mean involving the Swans-- I mean with anyone. Admit that I haven't seen most of Melbourne and Freo's games, though.

          If I were Roos I'd be scorching the grass. The skill errors we've come to expect. But the 80%-intensity, near-enough-is-good-enough, stand-around-and-expect-someone-else-to-do-it attitude is a bit of a new one for the Bloods; especially in the 1st quarter.

          Liam Jurrah did make the quarter worth watching somewhat, though. Albeit he hasn't converted one yet.

            The skill level from both teams has been pretty average. At least Mattner on Jurrah has been entertaining! If only Bruce were calling this game

            It's Dwayne Russell commentating btw, so depending on your personal preferences the 'idiot commentators' reference may still stand

              WORST quarter of footy I have seen this year. Awful. Hanners has been good. Not kicking to white, need to improve.

                What's new Al. Wrong decisions wrong selection of options.

                  16 inside 50's for only 3 goals against the bottom side. Says it all for the 1st Qtr

                        ROK kicks the first goal of the 2nd qtr. 30 seconds in. Great bullocking work from Jolly.

                                Off the hook on several occasions. The Dees know there's a lot at stake.
