Rd 15 vs West Coast @SCG - Match Thread

[RogueSwan]

The coaches' votes are in. Slightly surprisingly, none of Shuey, Kelly, Gaff or Sheed were able to squeeze a vote out.

10 Errol Gulden (SYD)
8 Chad Warner (SYD)
6 Isaac Heeney (SYD)
2 James Rowbottom (SYD)
2 Luke Parker (SYD)
2 Tom Hickey (SYD)

In a game like that, clearly there were a lot of players who had excellent games who weren't going to sneak into the voting...

I would have swapped Paddlebum and Chad around. Rowbottom was a machine at the contest.
27 disposals
20 contested possessions
13 tackles.
It did help that the Weagles let him stand as long as he wanted in tackles.

Sheldrick this weeks Rising Star

Has it been mentioned QBE were giving $3,000 to a charity for every goal we kicked, total $93,000!

Probably didn't factor 31 into their calculations, but I suspect they can afford it.

Good on Gus.

He’s got a lot of power at the contest and is very clean. I know we were playing witches hats the other night but there was a handball that so impressed me. In the relative chaos of the centre square, he saw Chad had zipped out the front, fired one over to him, and Chad popped it to Parker in the goal square for what was his checkside goal. It showed clean hands and great vision.

Yes, I was wondering to myself after the game if he was still eligible. Hopefully his see ball, get ball style holds up next game.

Warner’s miss of the simplest of goals 10 metres out at end of first quarter should have registered a penalty of 10 votes to be deducted from his final tally.

Heeney missed 3 easy chances. Should be dropped.

Can we not just enjoy the positives? There’ll be plenty less satisfying performances to come, surely?

Nice interview with Sheldrick: Swan's double-ton fun, being a 'bolter,' one-touch work

Yes I did wonder if they'd cap it at one stage, but I think QBE's 2022 profit was USD 770 million, so I think they'll be OK. Good on them for supporting footy anyway!

Herald Sun's 3-2-1 were Gulden, Rowbottom, Sheldrick.

The Swans would never sink to the current record low level of West Coast (5 wins out of the last 45 games) these days .
Simmo said his wife isn’t talking to him so you’d think it’s time to take a break.

I guess The Swans need to forget about this insane win and go in a lot harder in the coming games.
