Swans vs Carlton Game thread.

OK So we weathered the best they could throw at us and we are still only 3 goals down. There is room for improvement if we have the guts and the determination to go for it.
Now I shall have another champagne.

White was dropped weeks ago, but absolutely nothing has changed in the forward line...in fact it seems even more disjointed....

19 points down is definitely flattering to us. Luckily we have been able to reign them in, and if it wasn't for some ordinary conversion, would be even closer.

Quite simply, we are not in the class of the top-four teams, and this will certainly not be our year. Pre-season I woudl have said 6-8 finish, and it looks like that's what will happen. Maybe get lucky and jag fifth spot even.

There's still a half to play, but unless we find some intensity and pace from somewhere (not to mention a certain amount of class), we aren't going to get close in this game.

Judd has been watched real closely by Bitd mainly and a few others. I just fear what may happen if he got off the leash in the second half

Kizza playing mainly off half forward probably for fitness reasons I wonder if it's time to inject him back to the middle. Mummy also looks rush as does Tadhg but for totally different reasons!

I hope we can improve. Very frustrating first half.

Still plenty of time though. Blues are getting some good bounces of the ball. We are getting plenty of it and just need to be smarter. Big problem is it looks like we will get tired compared to a really fit looking blues. If only we could do something with our inside 50's

3 number one picks, a number two and Judd. Tanks very much!

It's 9-3 at half-time.

AFL website says 16-6 at half time.

I just tuned in, the Swans have some work to do!

Can't believe Sam managed to screw that up....

And again.

Seem to get into good positions and then blow it.

Really annoying.

I hope we can improve. Very frustrating first half.

Just as frustrating second half.
Bloody hell Reid

[sfan]

poor kicking and decisions under pressure killing us at the moment at critical times in scoring positions
