Keen to see if we can go with them now. Fantastic.

I think this will be Jude's last season.I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his timeComment

The Swans should relocate Jude and Bevan down to Canverra now and save them the travelling time. Another mugpie goal attributed to Bolton.
Can somebody tell me why Mc Touppee became Captain??
Apart from that, an entertaining game and we can get back to preparing for next season. Fair result.
Very exciting watching the younger guys improving so much.In memory of my little Staffy - Dicey, 17.06.2005 to 1.12.2011- I'll miss you mate.Comment

An entire pre-season and we still handball to the feet of our own players!
Only a pre season game but some of our older players look really slow.

Even Stuey took a while to settle into Captaincy, about a year actually. He'll be fine.
Looking forward to watching replay at breakfast. Thanks for keeping me/us up to date though.If you've never jumped from one couch to the other to save yourself from lava then you didn't have a childhoodComment

Final Score
Pies 1 12 12 = 93
Swans 1 10 10 = 79
Bruce took the words right out of my mouth. Terrific game of footy.
We seemed to lose our boldness in the final quarter. A hell of a lot to like though and if we play with the kind of dash we saw in Q2 and 3 we will be definitely be challenging all teams.
Ready to go: JPK, Sumner, Bird, Rohan, Jack, McVeigh, LJ, Ted, Shaw, Goodes, Melcho, Handy Dan, ROK, Moore
A little way to go: Seaby, Pike, Mattner, Everitt
A way to go: Reid, TDL, Meredith, JudeComment

Seemed to run out of legs in that final quarter, and the skills certainly suffered for it. Don't know how much of a factor it was, but we played in mid 30 degrees high humidity 6 days ago and the Pies haven't played for a fortnight.
Lots to work out yet in the forward line before the season starts. Goodes was terrific, and Moore and McGlynn lively but other than that it was a bit hapharzard. Guess a lot depends on where Bradshaw is with his game at the moment.
Definite overall highlight for me was Rohan's tackling. He came with a reputation of being a great tackler and we certainly got to see that tonight.Comment
