I love it when a youngster has a breakout game. Well done Macca. I reckon McLean is a keeper too.

No doubt he played well. He can find the ball for sure and is hard at it. We probably need to surround him with some quicker skilled players and I think he can have a role for sure!
He definitely gives his all so happy for him that he played well.

Good games from some much criticized players. Clarke and Squizzy particularly. Thurlow was also solid, except for a couple of fumbles in defence, but his kicking is very good. Wicks is more than just a tackler. He's a solid field and goal kicker. McLean isn't quick, but is quite clever for such an inexperienced player.
There's a lot to work with here. And still plenty of good players and prospects not in the side.
But Melbourne really didn't play well at all. They missed plenty of opportunities and their pressure wasn't that great either.
I liked us with 3 tall defenders. None of them had great games, but the extra height was valuable. It was hard stopping Gawn, but Petracca was kept fairly quiet.
I remember that Ed Langdon was one of our trade targets, but went to Melbourne. He got plenty of the ball, but his kicking was horrid. Happy that trade didn't come off.Comment

According to the tracker data, guess who was the fastest player tonight, with a speed of 32.4kph? Hint: I was getting tempted to give him the moniker of Tubby, but I might hold off now.Comment

I hope we perservere to some degree. The kid has heaps of talent - always has. Need his output and effort to lift, but I think he would be really helped by playing him simply as a crumbing forward. His goal showed what he can do in that role. Surely he can see that this team has ample opportunity to go places in years to come, so it'll be up to him if he wants to be part of that journey."You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."Comment
