    What I liked most, to be honest, is our young side roared back after a first quarter that saw the Swans behind. Good signs that we have a team that does not stay down when things don't go their way for a while. The Swans also stopped the Cats' possession, which was a big factor in giving themselves a chance.
    You must have been very tempted to go back to bed, after the dire first quarter.

        Ollie wins the big TV for BOG from the Seven team. Great game tonight.

          Good on McLean. He really showed a willingness to crack packs, stick grabs and boy he is a good kick. Plus, I reckon he’d be a coaches dream. Just do what they want and compete hard.

          Florent has produced a couple of career best games in the space of a few weeks. And Hayward didn’t have a great game but boy he took a few good grabs in the last quarter.

              We both know that’s coming. Can’t wait for the presser, grab the popcorn.

                  On ABC radio, Nick Davis gave 1 vote to Florent, 2 votes to Selwood and 3 votes to Hickey. I think the game brought back happy memories for Nick.

                  And speaking of ABC commentary, I thought Alicia Eva was very good.

                    You misspelled a certain word there. And added a my after it.

                      The way we lifted in the last few minutes was just sensational.

                      This finish will have as long a life as that goal from Rohan against the Bombers.
                      He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

                        Yes, saw that. Pathetic. Now we have Jackie Felgate on Seven, a Cats fan, saying 'we were robbed'. It will be the focus of all the game reports and the crap umpiring from the rest of the game will be conveniently bypassed.

                          That was such a satisfying win. When you are up against it and you come back to win in the dying minutes is just awesome. Go Bloods!

                              That's laughable. The umpires were at least 3 goals to Geelong today. We won but it will does my head in.
                              He had observed that people who did lie were, on the whole, more resourceful and ambitious and successful than people who did not lie.
