Good games from Heeney, Buddy, Sinkers especially. Several others played well. Fumbling sometimes still an issue, and my impression was that on the whole GWS marked the ball better than we did, but we did enough in a hard-fought game.

I'm hoping it's more to do with this Indian summer we've been having and nothing to do with a night time dew issue particularly as almost all of our home games are at night this year.It's very hard to live in a studio apartment in San Jose with a man who's learning to play violin. That's what she told the police when she handed them the empty revolver.

We do have a high number of handballs in close so greasy conditions don't help us I reckon.Comment

The SCG groundskeeper has started using Buddy's grease instead of water when watering the grass.Comment

Was just watching the highlights and Hudson's call of Buddy's goal was great. It's nice when you can watch an incredible highlight and not have to listen to inane commentary. I reckon "THIS IS BUDDY FRANKLIN!" is a grab that we'll be hearing in future publicity material.Comment

Reports that Reid will be out for a month with a quad injury....Melican strained his hammy...
If true, losing Reid particularly, is a blow to our structure up forward..Not to mention his versatility.
And with Grundy still feeling his way into the season, losing Melican is significant also.Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to pause and reflect... MTComment

I hope afl.com.au is right for once..."You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."Comment

Callum Sinclair has really stepped up with his added responsibility and his three goals were crucial.
He seems to be highly rated internally and could well be another player we get improvement out of. I still worry how we will go against a team with an elite ruckman but Sinkers will give us 100% and that is all we can ask for.
Good team effort last night. Happy to see us continue to get games into Olly and Will, Will was particularly impressive and looks a great pickup.Comment

Wow! I always thought that was Gerard Whately (also a Cats fan), but you are right - it was Hudson.Comment

The radio call from the late Clynton Grybas was superb too that night - you can get it if I remember rightly on the DVD version of it from the 2005 victory pack, or else its still around on YouTube as well."You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."Comment

Well, wasn't that lovely?
Towers is underrated. He did some lovely things at crucial times.
Massive room for improvement by all and sundry. Percentage is a big deal and we need lots of it.Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.Comment
