Rd 5 vs West Coast @ Optus - Match Thread

[Ralph Dawg]

"The Big Macs!" Love it!

[Daisi]

Oh McDonald is exciting...can we hang onto him? I really hope so...

[dejavoodoo44]

Glad we re-signed McDonald the other week. Weagles management would be getting very keen if we hadn't.

[i'm-uninformed2]

That’s the run we wanted. Keep it going.

As good as we've been, the Eagles have looked crap.

Many "fringe" Swans playing well - Ronke, Bell, McDonald, McLean and Reid

Campbell stepping up

I don't want to go to early, but Ladhams for the Brownlow?

[Mark26]

Brilliant start from the lads. We just need to sustain this for four quarters. Ladhams has had some nice touches in the ruck.

One of our worst quarters of the year yet we're up by 5 goals. Eagles terrible, that's as bad as what they served up against us last year. Given everything they've been and currently going through, I almost feel sorry for them.

[Foreign Legion]

Very good first quarter - need to go on with it.

McDonald showing why he was taken at 4. I love watching Paddy McCartin - he reads the play so well as you'd expect of someone who was drafted no. 1 as a forward.

Ladhams showing a bit too - very pleased with his first quarter.

[Ralph Dawg]

Logan could name his price to WC after that quarter though.

I think he might be a bit like Mumford, in that he possibly won't get through a season without being suspended. Generally for burying a midfielder in the turf.

[Foreign Legion]

21 inside 50's to 4 - wow - never seen it so one sided.

[i'm-uninformed2]

Can we please once again thank Paps for his crap goal kicking in the final round game against Geelong in 2020, as that’s what got us Logan.

Thanks Paps

Logan McDonald rising star nomination this week if he keeps this up? I’m pretty sure he’s still eligible (less than 21yo & less than 10 games at the start of the season)

Yes, the McCartins are going to drive some opposition forwards insane this season. I also quite like Ladhams.
