    Yes I saw that. It would have been 50 against us!

      Hahaha I laughed at that as well. Baldy umpire just seems very 'random' with his umpiring - but very keen on the whistle.

      We were poor in that quarter across the park - just didn't really get going. A good rev up needed at quarter time, but thankfully Freo were very wasteful going forward.
      "You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."

        Totally. Lucky to be that close. That lead will blow out if this continues. Fank f for Freo fumbles.

          The setting of the mark has become a complete debacle this season with the 'standing' rule.....a dogs breakfast and frankly it's a joke now.

            Not a good start. Why are we playing a zone all the way over the ground? We play one on one and our pressure is great. This zoning has more holes than Trump's election campaign.

              Yes. And we need to win some centre clearances.

                Still trying to understand the seating arrangements everyone squashed up in one area behind one end of the field. Swans home game so they warm up at the opposite end away from every spectator!
                Anyways at least we are closer at quarter time this week

                  I agree. Too many players standing in no mans land

                        Some really poor missed tackles by the Swans in that first few minutes - need to stick them.

                          No wonder Rowbottom gets bagged. That was horrible.

                            Yoo many times the ball has gone into our forward line with umarked freo players. McCartin was caught flat footed then.
                            He had observed that people who did lie were, on the whole, more resourceful and ambitious and successful than people who did not lie.

                              I am sorry for the previous comment. I was extremely emotional at the time. The comment was only directed to strategy. It was the first strategically flawed campaign in any field I could think of. Of course I could have mentioned the 'Where the Bloody Hell Are You' advertising disaster I suppose.
