Swans v Blues Game Day Thread

Brave

Good on Macca, Jesse, Parker, Hanners and Grundy.

Also thought Smth was brilliant in his usual understated way.

Thoughts on Teds hit?

A really brave win. Congratulations Swans, hold your heads high, a really courageous display in the true Swans/bloods spirit.

As others have said if we don't sign white there is seriously something I am missing. He is no world beater but what he did tonight demonstrates he is more than competitive at afl level. Am so happy for him and the whole team.

Have to find out how to get to Perth now

[aardvark]

Tippett doubtful Mitchell gone and Teddy could get a week. Hope the ressies get through unscathed tomorrow.

Carlton according to Bwian have not had a scoreless qtr since 1959. Great record.

What about last time we played them? It would have been a scoreless half but for the worst umpiring decision if all time!

[DK_]

No kick to kick after the game. AFL worried a kiddie might turn an ankle!

Lol!

[BillyRayCypress]

Great win tonight but with all those injuries. the only hope we have is if Freo go in thinking they have won by just showing up. I don't think that will happen.

So realistically who will come in for Tippett, Mitchell and possibly Richards.?

Might bring in both little brothers and Lamb but will it be enough?

[DK_]

That game was a reflection of the season. Crippled by injury, but the lads dug deep and made it happen anyway! That third quarter was one of the best live quarters I've ever seen - made all the better because everyone was expecting the Blues to come back at us!

[hot potato]

Gutsy, disciplined and composed . Well played Sydney.
@@@@e , how many more setbacks though.
Didnt see Ted incident at the game, hoping he's clear, we can probably cover him, but prefer not to.

[Daisi]

What's Morton's situation? Is he injury free?

I heard he's just come out of intensive care but should be fit enough to play given our injuries.

Great win by the boys tonight. Really showed a lot of guts to hang in there despite us dropping like flies to injuries in the first half.
I'm pretty sure Freo will get the better of us next week, but really, what an amazing effort to make the prelim after a super unlucky year in terms of injuries.

Well done, Swans. Good to give Jude a proper send off in Sydney too.
Cheer, Cheer!

For the last few year we have had such a great run with player his year we have had the wars. let hope tippett is right to go and also ted next week. Looks like rohan or lamb will be coming in next week. Teds was talking on tv he was sounding exciting that the swans will be playing in Perth next week.

[bodgie]

Amazing effort. Into the prelim even with the bitsa team! The Ted thing looked very similar to the Franklin bump and the target wasn't contesting the ball from memory. I'll have to watch it again
