His decision making is definitely elite. He has been very good so far and he worked so hard to work the length of the ground to take that final mark. Clutch kick too."You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."Comment

Hayward too. As much as he does some good things he fumbles and drops some crucial basic marks that either put us under pressure or turn it over! He as a rule is a decent mark for his height so he really needs to get that out of his game to get to the next level.Hanners had no pre-season at all. It's not surprising that he's not yet at his best, but I don't think he's been that bad today. Most of his possessions have been in the middle of packs. A few players aren't very clean with the ball today. Towers is one culprit, Newman another, while Jones has mixed some good "taking the game on" with some overly ambitious plays that have turned the ball over.

Some comments from the AFL Live match feed:
"Jarryd McVeigh leads all players on the ground with 168 metres gained this term at 100 per cent disposal efficiency. However the other five players on the ground to have gained at least 100 metres this term are all Bulldogs."
We really have to lift our workrate.
"Despite the Swans dominance in the ruck, where they have won 18 hitouts from 31 contests, including eight hitouts-to-advantage to two, the Bulldogs have won twice as many clearances than their opponents in the first half (16-8)."
Some centre clearance improvement would be handy.......Come on Swans!!Comment

Yes I thought so...very hard for him if he had no pre season, I think he's doing well considering....I would expect him to get better each weekHanners had no pre-season at all.

Yes, in both his games, he's been Dan the turnover man. Perhaps until he proves he can hit a target again, there should be a team rule that says, if he wants to have a possession, then he's going to have to get the ball himself.

Yes, need to improve our clearances. And only 18 tackles in the first half, isn't good either.Some comments from the AFL Live match feed:

A welcome 'live feed' comment:
"Sydney have lifted their kicking efficiency early in the third term, going at 100 per cent (83 per cent in their forward half) compared to the Bulldogs 40 per cent. This has allowed the Swans to spend 62 per cent of this quarter in their forward half."
Excellent!Comment
