You just knew that was going to happen, after they got 50 when it was an obvious, below the knees free to us.Comment

Only one team being umpired today. Umpires following the bulldogs narrative all week it seems. Determined to make a happy ending.He had observed that people who did lie were, on the whole, more resourceful and ambitious and successful than people who did not lie.Comment

The umpires/AFL should just give the Dogs the flag, it's what they clearly want. Horse or McVeigh need to have a chat to the umpires, shocking stuff. Unbelievable for a grand final. On the other hand, an amazing fight back by the team, should be 8 points up, but we'll take a 2 point lead nonetheless.Comment

What was that all about? The commentary is nearly as unintelligible as the umpiring.He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)Comment

The 12 - 4 free kick count tells the story of the game. Nonetheless, the Bulldogs have played very well and their goal kicking has been fortuitous. Most of the bounce of the ball factors have gone in favour of the Dogs in the 1st half. I hope it evens up for us in the 2nd half. It just may come down to an umpiring decision that decides the game.Comment

Some stupendously poor umpiring but somehow we are in front.
We just need to keep grinding, keep grinding and hope the umpires put the whistle away.
How many good tackles does buddy have to land in one piece of play to get a free kick..
Come on swannies!!"You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."Comment

A bulldog player pounced on the ball on the deck, Jack was running in, jumped over him last second to avoid contact, then they paid a free to the Bulldogs player (incorrect call), the swans thought it was their free, played on then the umps paid a 50m penalty. A goal resulted about 5-10 seconds after the 50 was paid.Comment

Hard to watch because of commentary and umpiring.
Bruce has shown a bit of sense questioning a couple of decisions that went against the Swans.
To win this we are going to have to battle through a 12 to 4 free kick game.
The frees to the Dongs have generally been there, the problem is the free not being awarded to the Swans.The difference between insanity and genius is measured only in success.Comment
