And we're miraculously level. *shakes head*

Geez anyone else notice that Hewett has learned the craft of lifting his arm to win a high free a la Selwood? He will become a player opposition supporters hate in time i bet! ????

That play be Heeney on the wing was absurdly good

[Blue Sun]

To the person who inevitably trawls through these pages when the match is said and done and claims we were being too harsh on the Swans. You're wrong. Awful turnovers and skill errors.

EDIT: and then the Swans kick 5 in a row! Much better this quarter. A different team.

Pretty much the definition of a small forward. Be able to get high free kicks.

Franklin's kicking for goal these days is a pure treat: the Buddy bullet.

Right now give me a swans player to kick the winning goal after the siren and its George H

Much much better quarter although lucky that Richmond missed those shots. We started making them play their backwards kicking game.

On the radio they said that Richmond hadn't gone inside 50 for 13 minutes so we need to keep that up.

Edit: What did I say?? 2 goals in 2 minutes!

[dimelb]

A much better quarter, more grunt and accuracy (though still not wonderful). If we keep our intensity up we can win it from here. If we could lift our accuracy in kicking alone we'd have them on toast.

[Wardy]

Hmm maybe we spoke too soon??

[Swannette]

And again. Buddy you are not invincible. Tackles stick. Get rid of the ball.

[WauchopeAnalyst]

We are still trying to hold the ball. Move it IMMEDIATELY, but we want to have a look, another goal from Buddy having a look instead of kicking.

[WauchopeAnalyst]

So soft and weak.

[Blue Sun]

Aaand just like that it's even. Swans are gone.

2.49mins for 3 goals
