God we make life difficult for ourselves

Oops, really dumb turnover goal to Cats, about 3 mins to half time.

Bolton kicks one

[neilfws]

Redeemed ourselves; beautiful move from McGlynn to Goodes to Jude who goals. McGlynn having a great game, big effort today.

So someone has finally played them the 2003 Port Game!!!

(I feel sick....need a hug)

Three players: Judd, G.Ablett Jun. and Selwood - what do they have in common?

They are allowed to do a bloody pirouette when tackled before they get rid of it.

Great pressure from the Swans. Goodesy really lifted that qtr and Teddy is playing really well.

Rhyce Shaw providing a lot of run - made a mistake but on the whole very positive.

EDIT - forgot Gary Rohan - I love him for his pace and pressure.

[ShockOfHair]

7.5 to 5.7 at half-time. Cats are off their game but we're really on ours. We're winning the clearances and actually taking marks inside 50. McGlynn, Shaw, Goodes, Mummo leading the way.

Harry Taylor subbed off for the Cats.

[GongSwan]

Great effort to half time, pressure footy and mostly played on our erms, just need to be a bit better on the spread. Hope we can keep this pressure up, Rohan has been sensational, everyone seems to be in the game. If Goodes gets some quality posession in the second half we might well be on, well here's hoping we can keep them down and stop that play on and run the cats do so well

[lwjoyner]

When will TK retire, Grundy and Mattner not far behind with mistakes. Why wont they kick the ball instead of trying to take on a man. The backline is not strong enough lucky for TR and RS today, Nick is also doing ok so far but its along way to go.

[Snake]

Very proud of the boys, playing with their hearts on there sleeve's, hope we can knock them over.........
White is going great guns, and Rohan what a gun ;-) Shaw absolutely on fire!!!!

[tasswan]

Have been impressed with Benny, and good to see both Parker and Meredith playing well. Geez we have missed Rohan. Mummy has been unbelievable

[Cheer_Cheer]

White deserves a mention too.. He is hopefully starting to string a few good games together..
