    Match Thread Swans v Suns: Round 6.

    Perfect day for football: temperature in the low 20s; only the occasional cloud, with very little chance of rain; a gentle southerly breeze, that shouldn't affect scoring.

    Yey, a dedicated match thread. Good work Deja.

    I think we win this game handsomely.....if thinking is hoping. Seriously though, we should not lose this, even with our injuries. We play a better brand of footy and hopefully today, we can get back to our speedy style of play from the first few rounds. Dewy will coach to stop our flow but I'm confident we will find a way. Should be an entertaining game.

      I, too, like the separate match thread. Don't share your confidence, stevo, but certainly hope you can say "I told you so!" at the end of the game!

      Go Bloods!

        I reckon it'll be a tight one all day, but hoping we can play well and get back to the expansive football seen earlier in the season.

          Undisciplined by Papley. We had the ball and he gave away a free.

          I get the feeling that Alistair Lynch doesn't like us. He seems to speak negatively about us.

            The gap between Sinclair and Hickey is hugely obvious. Impact in our centre clearances equally clear. Basically Sinclair junps with his arm up....and that's it.
            He had observed that people who did lie were, on the whole, more resourceful and ambitious and successful than people who did not lie.

              Whoever is on Miller needs to tighten up - too many easy disposals.

                  My confidence is shaken already......get in the game Swans!

                    Heeney looking very good (besides that miskick)

                      Jeez that passage of play was loose - the Suns had about 5 blokes who could get the ball unopposed. Worrying signs.

                        Suns forward entries clean into an open 50 metre arc. Swans shambolic, slow into a crowded static 50 metre arc. We are playing 2020 footy again.

                          ABC Grandstand commentators saying that the Swans are going side to side, not up the corridor! WTF is going on with our game plan?

                          Hewitt going off with a head knock but got pinged for elbowing Flanders......simple head clash misjudged by idiot umpire.

                            Swans looks awful early on.
