      Never been a fan of Bird, but that has now officially changed. What a game by him!

      JPK is a legend. Hope he wins a Charlie.

      Jude and ROK were all heart for Goodsey.

      Ted could possibly be my favourite Swan of all time.

      Yep to all and....

      WOW
      ..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

            How fantastic JPK getting best on ground - again!!!! Goodsie take a bow this one was for you! 37 point win for number 37.
            I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure..................

              AWESOME! I've been enjoying the Swans this year more than I have in a while, but today's game was BRILLIANT! Like Liz, I was given them a one-person standing ovation in my loungeroom. What a brilliant second half. I'm loving being a Swans fan at the moment

                And still with no dominance in the forward line. I'm hoping it's just a question of time before Reid gets the radar right... Maybe the problem is Dew and Maxfield are both left footers and therefore unable to pass their wisdom on.

                Oh and fantastic result. Getting the feeling I may need to sabotage the overseas holiday planned for September - I don't want to choose - GF or Divorce...

                  Still wont change my mid re Johno amd Everitt, at thias stage not in our best 22. AJ too slow under pressure acts a bit like LRT when he started. Everitt is just everitt. does anyone know what happened to Mal no mention on TV surely he wasnt just subbed off could have should have taken others off thought he was playing OK or was it an injury.

                    I'm very pleased with my decision not to speak on here during matches..Too easy to jump to early conclusions, and finish with egg....

                      Well I'm actually from Sydney, not born down here in the land of the great white inbred. Special mention to Seaby, who didn't get much help in the ruck, but went all day

                        A game of 2 halves. That second half was great fun to watch.

                          Craig Bird is such a good reader of the play. He and Smith are cool under pressure. Loved their games.

                          That was an amazing win. Kennedy is a star, ROK played his heart out and kept us in the first half. Jude never says die.

                          I disagree that Jack didn't play well, he had another cracker. Parker will be a superstar, as will Hanneberry and Jetta. Reid will get better and better.

                          So happy for Adam Goodes. What a player, what a second half! This win was a bonus in some ways - I'd like to see how many "experts" tipped us today. They will be taking notice from now on.

                          The defence stood up so well against big bodies. An all round fantastic team effort. Like last week, they just had that never-say-die attitude. Respect to them all!

                            Birdy was sooo good wasn't he! I have always known it was there as he is very clever but he took it to a complete new level today. I think we have depth and with the Spang coming back and Bullie playing so well as well as Morton and TDL we are pretty strong!

                              Everitt was great again today - especially in the second half when moved through the midfield. And Johnson not in our 22? Who the hell are you going to replace him with??

                                No one tipped us for today! I was hopeful but not confident. Buddy ran riot the last time we played, but was well contained. His hands seemed slippery. AJ had a few mistakes but overall defence was amazing in the second half especially. Good contribution from across the board
