    Umpires deplorable so far. No consistency at all. Something really needs to be done about these high frees, Giants are ducking and dropping their knees at every opportunity and the umps are falling for it.

      Tippett has been throwing his weight around well. Hannebery is just starting to exert his influence. Schmitt is just starting to irritate me.

        I agree I really dislike the ducking and dropping the knees high frees especially when the legitimate high frees are not paid.

        We started slow but settled half way through the quarter.

          I'm hopeful the Giants will have run out of steam by half time - we have to be cleaner with our disposal and not panic and bloody MAN UP!!!

          Is McVeigh colour blind? And our tackling is not up to speed
          I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure..................

            The Giants won't run out of steam, but we need to slow things down because they run out of patience...They'll beat us at this running game...we need to slow things down because the Giants don't know anything about defence...they're all attack...

            Oh the place doesn't look anywhere near sold out..BTW

              Lloyd does my head in and add Jones to that as well (I know I'll cop a spray from some here!) and the frees & HTB are somewhat inconsistent ! And has Mummy just turned into a loveable thug?

                  We are being destroyed by the umpires. Two sets of rules or there at the moment.
                  He had observed that people who did lie were, on the whole, more resourceful and ambitious and successful than people who did not lie.

                    Be nice if they started to umpire both sides.

                      In the back seems to have disappeared tonight...look the AFL have to try to manufacture a 'rivalry' here, so it's no surprise that the umpiring is iffy..nonetheless, the Swans are playing badly...

                        10 frees to 3 now, and they've missed many obvious Sydney frees.

                          I didn't think you could stick your knees in anywhere - yet the Giants can do it?

                            Not looking good.
                            Will the swans be turning up soon?
                            Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.

                                Davis just seems to have the job of flicking the ball and it's working
                                I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure..................
