    We lost by 81pts, Matthew Lloyd kicked 13 goals…
    You almost had to just sit back and appreciate the dominance of Lloyd - what else could you do - the game was essentially over for us part way through the third quarter.

      Great one grab mark and outstanding kick for goal. Ran straight at target and hit the drop punt.

      None of this round the corner snap rubbish from straight in front.

        It was the perfect action - particularly in his early days and prime. From memory, his accuracy changed a bit after he came back from injury - although having a look at his stats doesn’t actually bear this out (funny how that works out at times).

          Only a few

If indeed true then to air it publicly as some sort of talking point.....still not fair on the playing group. Didn't really need to be said.

            Considering how much hub life our players have had to endure and the on field success it has brought, seems to me any 'ratbags' we might have are behaving.....
            The swans do not have a no dickheads policy and thank god or Plugger, Hall and maybe even Buddy would've been seen as too much of a risk ! We are not so arrogant to think that we can only have down the line nice blokes on the list .

            I am not basing it on any law of averages , i am telling you that i know a few cases to be true , have heard from very good sources who im not going to name on this forum . Anyway its the last i will mention it , was just trying to add my two cents to the discussion a few pages back but it seems i havent earned the respect or the faith for anyone to think im not just making #### up . Forget i brought it up , lets hope we get the win today and Go bloods

                My step cousin takes her pet cockatiel to the same dog park as the butcher who sells bacon bones to the boot studder of the Swans reserves. I’m not going to name the source specifically, but I can assure you that they are 100% certain that the is a good chance that there might be some ratbags on the Swans rookie list. Take my word for it. Or don’t.

                    Let’s hope he isn’t needed. But good luck to him if he is.

                      I have heard about one of our youngish players being spotted doing something he shouldn't. I was disappointed when I heard.

                        The AFL should go back to 15 metre penalties. 50m translates to a free goal. It's ridiculous.

                            So any word yet whether this relocation to Melbourne is permanent?

                              It is, till something goes wrong there.

                              Then, it's off to SA, or wherever else is in the clear at the time. Then, when it goes wrong there, it's back to somewhere else that was good once, then bad, but has now come good.
                              'Delicious' is a fun word to say

                                Are there any AFL grounds on Norfolk Island? Lord Howe did the AFL grand final end up there?
