Game Day : Vs Saints

[Swans500]

Some very sloppy Swans efforts....

[Melbournehammer]

clearly so wet and slippery that neither team can actually hold their feet - but as usual the wet conditions stuff our skills.

jude kicks the first point for the second quarter - swans up by 3

Mummy should change his name to Dirk Diggler with that new mo and sidies combo!! Boom chick-a-wah- wah!!

Was he a 70's porn star?

[BillyRayCypress]

Parker is in serious threat of getting dropped from my supercoach side. However, playing well so far.

[Melbournehammer]

weve been much better this quarter but haven't done much scoreboard pressure. riewoldt takes uncontested mark as a result of grundy falling behind and mal failing to actually act as the free man. saints up by three

[Melbournehammer]

jack kicks a good goal as a result of uncontested mark from parker and a good kick

[Wardy]

C'mon SWANS!!

[Melbournehammer]

swans scramble a goal as a result of very good pressure around the ball. swans up by 8 points

[Melbournehammer]

saints get one back - swans up by 2 again

[Simo]

Andre, needs to get the ball and not worry about his hair.... Get hard nuts in. Pretty boys do not survive at south.

[Melbournehammer]

so far parker has been our best player. jude and kennedy starting to come on. swans up by 10

[Melbournehammer]

amongst the ugliest games i have ever watched. clearly a very very hard game in the conditions. really best described as a contest. anyway see what happens in the second half.

[Nich]

Mattner might need to get a glove out. Nothing is sticking.

Lukey Parker is everywhere and Macca is playing like a bloke with the weight of the World off his shoulders.

C'mon boys!

The Saints beat us once last year and in the return match were just a goal down five minutes from the end before we kicked three or four goals. So although we came in as redhot favourites, the 10-point lead at halftime is within expectations. (The scrappy, crappy contest isn't, though.)

McVeigh and Parker have been excellent in the conditions. Reid having another shocker. Ted needs some help to contain Reiwoldt -- 19 possessions and two goals.

Just curious; when Jesse was the next big thing did he ever get the support of the coaches and hold his spot whist struggling as much as Sam has?
