i think our tall defence is seriously in trouble. we are winning the contests around the ball and our small defenders are doing well and mattner has been superb for three games in a row - but grundy looks terrible and richards is barely coping.
bizarre but we are desperate for both lrt and spangher just to have some bigger bodies and tiger will be critical as a running defender so long as he doesn't do too many loopy handballs.
we also need to stop handballing the ball back into the packs but get it going outside a bit more often.
still a win is a win is a win.Comment

This, definitely. We're gonna have to, real soon, stop depending on come-from-behind-MacGyver wins and play steadily, sterlingly well for the whole game if we aim to be top 4. Allah willing we'll hold our own against Geelong and win, but ... I fear as always it'll be at best a heart-in-the-throat, down-to-the-wire, other-hyphenated-string-of-words sort of game ...Comment

Look, I know it has been 3 non losses on sheer last minute guts....but remember, we have the likes of TDL, LRT, Kennelly, Malch, Moore etc all to come back at various times....I wont include Bradshaw as i feel he is about finished,,,
Plenty to look forward to....Comment

i thought we were exposed again in the mid field & wings due to lack of due care to their opponents. We had no second option when this happened. We really stuffed up today in only taking 1 ruck to the contest. I really believe that if Everitt had made way for Pyke who is very athletic we could have been in a very different position. We are nowhere near a top $ at this stage. Maybe these games are sorting out the slag from the precious metal but I firmly believe our best is in the youth. Teddy was only just passable tonight get LJ in. If Ryan is off form give him a holliday in the resies & put Parker in his place. We had a lot of so called good players down tonight, Reg's delivery was just appalling. Everitt was ordinary until moved into attack, great move by the way. Bring in Lewis Johnston & sumner & TDL &b get rid of some of the fakers. We really need someone like TDL to kick a lot of goals & give a whole lot more off.Comment

Gotta love this team. We may have heart attacks regularly but to be so down on skills and win on sheer guts is inspiring. When the team finally clicks with the new young players it's going to be close to unbeatable. But how much will we miss Goodes when he retires?Comment

A great gutsy fantastic win for the boys. West Coast have definitely improved and it isn't easy over there. Having said that there is definitely plenty of improvement in this side and that has to be a good thing. Well done to Andrejs to go forward and have an impact after a forgettable first 3 quarters. I agree he just needs to have a bit more confidence in his decision making. Gary Rohan took some huge steps tonight. Great to see. Goodesy was the class difference in the end. Well done guys. I love supporting them because they always have a crack even when things aren't quite going our way. Go Bloods.Comment

One thing about supporting this club is that IT'S NEVER BORING...And the Swans are the Premiers...The Ultimate Team...The Ultimate Warriors. They have overcome the highly fancied Hawks in brilliant style. Sydney the 2012 Premiers - Gerard Whately ABC

Don't understand what the Pies have to do with it. Yes they are in outstanding form but it's not relevant as we didn't play them.
Yes Geelong at home will be good and they had better be ready because we are at home with hopefully a more complete list to choose from and a good crowd behind us.
Have some faith people we just did the toughest road trip in the competition after a very tough game last week and the boys showed that they are fit and hard and mentally tough. Clap loud.Comment
