English running off Sinclair too easily.

Who is watching this? It appears from the stats and the score that we are getting smashed.......Possessions 70-49, Clearances 6-3, Score 20-12......

Dogs are playing us very well- we need to slow them down or we will get absolutely trashed today.

Newman playing his way back into the 2's...

Our defence is leaky this year.......

Dogs are running hard and moving the footy quickly. Swannies need to man up and play one on one.

We are looking spooked - Get your mojo back swans (even if the dogs have Stevic on their side)

It's amazing what happens when you kick accurately to your own players...

Unforced turnovers...have no chance against any team when you just give them the ball time and again...

Umpires haven?t done anything untoward yet. Dogs are just outplaying us. We?re still in touch because of our accuracy, really great to see this year.

[Daisi]

The dogs are playing really fast football, and we don't play or defend this style very well...

We have some significant outs today so it's going to be a hard task...

UGH- just saw a bulldog player hanging onto Buddy's shirt, a free to any other club, any day of the week- I wish they'd umpire Buddy fairly

Shocking lack of pressure. How is Johannisen allowed to be floating around getting the ball at will???

It feels like of those awful Swans games where we fumble, don't work hard and look slow.

Not a good start.

Our defenders needs to really tighten up and play closer. Where is our midfield though - feels like only Papley appears to be able to win a clearance.

Wake up Swannies!!!

I think the game is more the Dogs playing well thus far, and with a game plan that we do struggle against. We need our mids to win lots of first ball so that the Dogs get less chance to control the play. And maybe the Swans could try slowing the game down a bit themselves, and chip the ball short, rather than play on, kick long and risk turnovers.

On the scoreboard we're still very much in the game so no damage yet.

Some interesting quarter time stats: Florent 1 kick, Towers 1 kick and 1 hit out, Hayward 1 free against and no possessions, Allir 1 handball.

[U.S. Swan]

They do know the blue jerseys are the Bulldogs, yes...?
