    Looking at the other results of this round I wish we went a bit harder in the 4th qtr.. Percentage is going to be a big decider this year. It has been a nice stress free couple of weeks which was nice for a change. We need some more resistance in the lead up to the finals and hopefully we get it and win with no injuries !
    Gotta make up your mind - resistance or percentage? I vote percentage!

      Good win with an even contribution across the ground. My heart skipped a beat when Gary got injured.
      I know we need to test ourselves against the better teams but it's great that the younger players are getting some good wins. It gives them confidence in taking on the game and they'll need to do this in the finals against better teams.
      When we get good starts against the lower teams the game is virtually over by quarter time. We need to do this against the better teams.
      I hope Kirky has a quiet word with Papley about staging for free kicks - not the Swans way.

      Nice to see the Hawks got beaten by the Demons. 1 more loss and they'll be out of the top 4. Will the AFL allow this? Stevic to umpire the Hawks for the next 3 games

        As I posted previously, from the vision it didn't look like Parker knew he was there. Incidental to the play.

          Though I disagree with it, in Tom Papley's defence. If you can play 3rd quarters of pressure football and receive three F/kicks only,then you start thinking to yourself, What do I need to do to get a rightful free kick? Do I need to do some staging??

            Cleared. I'd heard nothing of it until today either, so can't have been very notable.

            Sydney Swans on Twitter: "JUST IN: Luke Parker has been cleared by the Match Review Panel of contact with Chad Wingard during Saturday's match."

              All is well. Correct outcome.

              "Contact between the Sydney Swans? Luke Parker and Port Adelaide?s Chad Wingard from the third quarter of Saturday?s match was assessed. The ball was loose with Wingard moving towards Parker. Parker tried to take possession of the ball and, as he lifted his arms, his right arm made high contact with the approaching Wingard. It was the view of the panel that Parker?s action was not reportable and no further action was required."

                Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
