Round 15: Swans v Demons @ Cazaly's

[Thunder Shaker]

This is the kind of performance we can expect from a young side - good patches showing their potential, combined with some shockers like the Fremantle game.

Sydney being Melbourne's "bogey side" got a mention during the second quarter on the ABC commentary. Seasons this century when we've not beaten Melbourne: 2011 (draw, 1 game away), 2010 (1 game away), 2001 (2 games). Our record against Melbourne this century: 19W, 1D, 7L.

Excellent quarter, not only did we keep Melbourne goal less, but we also looked crisp in attack. Nice seeing Blakey and Dawson get plenty of the ball: both look very dangerous. McInerney might have earned himself a new contract. Hoping for a Papley bag in the second half.

Half time inside 50 entries now 20-21 and a 28pt lead. Great use of the wind!

My app has a little medical symbol next to Papley's name......any info on an injury anyone?

Think he's fine. May have been balls landing on ball, in a tackle?

Wow thats a bloody good record. Even though Melbourne have mostly been crap but they did play in a Grand Final I watched in NYC at about 4AM.

[Wardy]

the bloke playing no 8 for the dees Looks a dead ringer for Blakey from “on the Buses”

[longmile]

Thank god Langdon missed. Ridiculous free

[Mel_C]

The reaction by Longmire after the mark was taken off Blakey was exactly what I did!! I may have said a few more expletives ????. The replay showed the free was there.

[Nico]

I am bemused. Why wouldn't Hayward have a shot for goal. Dumb footy.

[Foreign Legion]

They got a few lucky frees there - especially when we had it forward.

We need 2 goals to win.

I think the wind would have made it very tough blowing to left of screen.

[Nico]

I get the shakes every time Clarke goes anywhere near the ball. Does not add any value to the team.

I reckon he is having a good game. Florent's the one having a howler.

Ouch!

[Daisi]

Smart quarter, it looks like the breeze is a real factor and we slowed the footy to mitigate the advantage. Fingers crossed for next quarter.

10 possessions in the quarter

[stevoswan]

Kept them to one goal that quarter....and with the wind in the last, we should go on and win this. 30 minutes of slog Swans! Come on!

[AB Swannie]

Agree that Florent is the main concern from our young brigade lately.

4 kicks, 2 handballs in three quarters.....mmmm. It is a worry.....
