[Thunder Shaker]

Feeling bloody sick...pathetic....

After a few quick goals, are you feeling any better now?

[DeadlyAkkuret]

Breathing space, thank God!

Ball spills to Fev in the pocket after good pressure from the Lions, but he misses. Swans 92-64.

Black hits Brown running into space 40m out directly in front. Brown slots the goal, his 4th. Swans 92-70 . 1min left in the 3rd.

Swans win the centre clearance, McVeigh scrambles the kick forward to Malceski who gives it off to Goodes who runs in to kick the goal.

Swans 98-70. 40 seconds left in the 3rd.

[Mike_B]

Kennedy with a free kick and finds Bradshaw just outside 50 right on the siren. Bradshaw goes the torp and kicks a monster goal!!!! His 6th goal of the night and the Swans go into the final break up by 34, 104-70.

[Young Blood]

can't wait to see Braddie's barrel. How lucky are we to have him fall in our laps.

[Dogzbody]

[Swans500]

Oh yes...I hate myself for losing confidence in this side....

3 Quarter Time
Swans 16.8.104 Lions 11.4.70

Bradshaw with 6 for the Swans, Brown and Fevola 4 each for the Lions.

A contrasting quarter with Brisbane dominating early, getting the margin back to 10 points before the Swans kicked a few quick goals before the siren to stretch the lead back out primarily due to winning the centre clearances. Brisbane's domination early coincided with the inability of the Swans to get their run off halfback when the ball went inside 50 for the Lions, but Malceski in particular got into the game later on.

The question will be whether we can run out the game with losing Seaby so early, and Hanners, Jude and ROK all spending time with the doctors. At least those three have all returned to the field.

[Young Blood]

Who's on Banfield?

[Mike_B]

Kennelly drops an uncontested mark, Fev toepokes it to Banfield who goals from 40m out. Lions with the first of the last quarter. 104-76.

[Mike_B]

Another poor miss - this time Bradshaw uncontested on the lead. On the rebound the Lions hit Bandfield inside 50m who misses left.

Swans 104-77.

[Mike_B]

Terrible turnover from Shaw, Power marks 40m out on 45 degree angle. Power pushes it across the face. Swans by 25, 104-79.

[Mike_B]

Composure not there for the Swans at the moment. Playing like we're ahead by 5 points, not 25.
