NAB Round 4 - Swans v Suns

[top40]

Swans win by 19 points, scoring the last 21, Eskie BOG

[dimelb]

FT Swans 14.19.103 to 13.6.84. With GC's accuracy it would have been a massacre.

Just looking at the stats it looks like Mal is back to his best, Mummy monstered them, Kennedy over 30 possesions as did Parker. We've found one in Parker, into my Dreamteam son!

[desredandwhite]

Not much system however we got enough of the ball to win. If we meet Geelong or hawthorn in the wet, it will be a record breaker. Final scores 14.19.103 to 13.6.84. 700+ at the ground. I want to know where they were all hiding.

Final Score Swans 14.19 103 to Suns 13.6 84

Top Disposals
Kennedy 34
Parker 32
Malceski 31

Multiple Goal Scorers
McGlynn 2.0
LRT 2.0
and a whole bunch of singles (Reid did not kick a goal)

Only big concern is Rohans ankle obviously

[Foreign Legion]

Good to see Hannebery with 22 possies - he looks like he'll be straight in next week.

Parker looks like he is going to be 'special' as Bruce would say - a lazy 32 disposals.

[Cheer Squad]

Not exactly the most convincing display, especially against last year's wooden spooners.

Any word on the seriousness of Rohan's injury?

[desredandwhite]

Parko and Mal BOG. Mummy got a million taps. Joey was good and it was nice to see Hanners back directing traffic. Some really nice stuff from Marty. AJ was good too. Lamb looked a lively sort and was unlucky not to kick a goal or two, unless he jagged one of the ones I didn't see clearly.

I keep reading how we are bombing it long too often,. Wasn't long ago we were supposedly kicking too short.
Anyway over 400 possies today and 33 shots on goal...Seems like a good hit out.
Just need to convert more chances....easy!

Anyone know how AFL do the stats when the team sheet is changed at half time? Bolton, Pyke and Lamb do not appear there but we know Lamb at least replaced Shaw. Were his stats added to Shaw or do they just not appear.

[Meg]

Did Mike Pyke come on in second half? If so how did he play?

This has been one of the most distinct game plan changes we have. We used to be very comfortable hanging on to the ball, being patient in trying to find a good lead and making incremental movements up the ground. Certainly now Horse wants our forward entries to be quick and direct to the top of the square. Unfortunately teams drop players down back so we are often out numbered and a lot of the kicks aren't necessarily to advantage.

Very worrying performance and add the injuries to Rohan and Shaw plus the reserves game being cancelled it doesn't bode well for next week. More thoughts later

No he was dressed but didn't play. Shaw must have done something at halftime but since the team sheets for the second half were already submitted the swans weren't allowed to bring Pyke in for shaw late

I wouldn't be too worried. The Giants have been put in their place by Richmond, who flogged them by about 12 goals.
