Rd 6 - Swans v Lions match thread

[Lucky Knickers]

Can't believe anyone would seriously be bagging White. He was great As for our 4th qtr, frankly it was one of the smartest qtrs of footy we have played for a while! We soaked up the clock and the pressure.
BANG BANG YOU'RE DEAD! Gotta love those guns Bradshaw is packing.
Fev is a tool.
Dan Hannebery is a gutsy player. Worthy.

We r not a top of the table team after tonights performance

Are you on drugs!!!!!

It was as wet and slippery as out there tonight. it rained for most of the morning here in Sydney AND you could see the dew on the ground during the ressies match.

They did a TOPS job tonight. Bring on the cattery!!!

Talk about glass half empty. The 9 goal spurt was as good as footy you will see and we responded well to every challenge thrown down by the Lions. To me that's a sign of s very good team.

A really good team would not have let the Lions back into it.We had some very costly turnovers from some very amaturish mistakes.

Really!!! Where not talking about a poor team here. The Lions were always going to fight back. The fact we responded as well as we did when they challenged us is a bloody good sign. I'm utterly flabergasted that you would want to bring down what was a stirring win.

True Nate. We shouldn't have let them in. I said as much after the first quarter!!
BUT .... it was VERY slippery out there. It may as well have rained - same impact on the ball.

I dnt think any ones been better,i think the comp is just more even

[ShockOfHair]

Don't knock the LIons. They're top four contenders with some great players. How about Banfield for a talent? The Swans and Lions looked a lot more like top sides than the Dogs and Saints did last night.

Simple answer... No one. We have won 18 of 24 qtrs this year which is the highest in the AFL. Form wise we are DESERVED ladder leaders at the moment.

We'll be right pet.
If they played like they did today (and maybe a bit better in patches) we're a lay down mizare over the cats.
