Match Thread Round 9 vs Fremantle at Optus 10 May 2024

[Maltopia]

Massive crowd tonight. It is like Tokyo sardine trains on the way in.

It is overcast but warm. About 15% chance of rain.

My Fremantle member buddy is sick and I will now be sitting next to a mate in full Swans regalia right in the middle of the members area

Sean Darcy is out so all our worries about support for Grundy was moot.

Fox is our sub. Walters for Fremantle.

Another great tackle by Hayward!

A shaky start by Blakey.

A couple of bad kicks inside 50.

Logan what a goal!!!

[Mel_C]

Our tackling has been great so far.

Gee that was a good kick by Wicks and great mark by Logan

[Mel_C]

Great pressure led to the Lloyd goal.

[i'm-uninformed2]

We’re ahead, even though the midfield is getting smoked. Can’t depend on pressure alone.

[Mel_C]

We are lucky with the misses by Fremantle. Our pressure has got us on top.

Nice start to the second quarter!

[Mel_C]

Chad!! Those long goals are what we have been missing from him.

[Swanstubbs]

Fyfe caught HTB three time in a quarter. Love to see it

Heeney is taking Fyfe mantle well and truly

Francis just not up to AFL footy

[Mel_C]

I'm going to have a heart attack watching Blakey go on those runs!

That was a soft free to Amartey but I'll take it.

[Thunder Shaker]

I'm listening to the game on the AFL website.

The kicking for goal has been interesting so far. It's not often that a team is up by about five goals with fewer scoring shots.

Haywards amazing form is making up for papleys lack of form

Swans making everything sing at the moment
