Free kick to Nick Smith at the bottom of the pack in the centre square and then 50m for having his head pushed into the dirt. He goals from 40 out directly in front and the lead is back out to 26.

We are in trouble.

Question will be about running the game out, although Patfull is hurt for the Lions. And we have got the last 2 in quick succession.

Feeling bloody sick...pathetic....

Swans in disarray - poor handball inside def 50 leads to a turnover and Leuenberger running into an open goal.

Bolton gets a clearance, tries to find Bradshaw who contests with Maguire and can't get a touch. Through for a behind.

Scrappy pieces of play result in the ball ending with Bradshaw behind his man and he kicks an easy goal from 20m. 2 in a minute for the Swans who get it back out to 23 points.

5 tonight for Bradshaw.

Swans win the centre clearance and a quick kick falls into the Eski's arms 40m out. He cops a knee in the back for good measure after the contest, but still kicks the goal and the Swans have 3 in quick succession to lead 92-63 with 4:49 to go in the 3rd.
