    On the replay it was clearly high and Hanners was gone before he hit the deck. If the MRP is consistent he is in a bit of trouble whether it was deliberate or not. He had the pill and was in a crouched position.
    THat would be my read too - nothing particularly nasty but the precedents are there.

      nothing to add just like the post
      Theres not much left to say

          I'd much rather they do not analyse where we went well. Let our opposition figure that out for themselves rather than have it graphically presented on a TV show.

            I doubt too many coaches get their opposition analyses from Robbos ramblings. My point is we didn't rate a mention, it was all about the bombers. Just a bit dissapointing, but not unexpected of course

              The longer the good stuff we've been doing this season stays under the radar, the better. Our bandwagon needs no outsiders on it - Swans fans can see the potential of this team, but I'd like to think noone else will see it anytime soon. We should not care if the media rates us or not... it'll make the success all the better

                There's so much love for the Swans OTC I needed to wipe the dribble off the TV then realised it was on the inside!

                  You probably have something there! Recruiting miss-steps look pretty ugly in hindsight don't they!

                    I'm liking the love and am happy for the media to talk us up as much as they see fit. Sometime in the near future this team will have an aura of invincibility about it that the media will lap up, opposition teams will fear, and opposing fans will look on with a mix of awe and jealousy...

                      Do not post this on big footy sorry, the other site. I don't think there is a team that looks forward to a trip to the SCG, why oh why did we sign a deal with ANZ?

                        I am impressed with Tony Armstrong. His kicking is really great. A fantastic effort off the half back line getting 24 disposals. Some of our mids didn't get that many on a night of long kicking that kept disposals down to a minimum. We have the makings of a really great team and I think even better to come very soon and in the next few years. Just hope it can all come together and the Coaching staff can get the best out of them.

                        Just want to say that some of the guys coming through have very good delivery skills. Lockyer, Biggs, Mitchell etc & I hope Brown is also good in that department. Time will tell.

                          The next few years will see some retirements though, hence my earlier request to start using some young blood on the bench as sub. Start sorting out who we have going forward into the next 5 years

                                There's an audio podcast of the whole show. Works pretty well except for the parts where they show footage from the games
