Swans kicked exceptionally well in the first half. I really felt like we should have been 60 pts up at half time based on how we were playing. Hahahaha same!

Yep, there’s just something about Blakey …
Thought I was the only one too !

Spot on Surrey.
My three teens have taken varying degrees of interest over the years but they’re now actively asking when we’re playing and hogging the family Kayo account
It’s great to see.

And now we get to enjoy the weekend’s footy knowing we’re already winners.

I kept on calling him Perm boy……. Bahahahaha

For me , its about who we beat . The Sydney Swans . A club i have enormous time for . A great tough hard playing group , a fantastic uncompromising Coach . They have been a power for twenty years . A milestone win for mine . A turning point for our Club .

I loved it when Mr Tough man Parker was out pressured by O’Brien when he smothered his free kick.

And the muppet commentators watched the replay of Heeney turing and running away from the ball up into Cripps, who was standing still facing the ball up, and knock him to the ground, and simply said “they just ran into each other and Cripps pulled him to the ground - nothing to see here”. FMD

Sam Walsh on Crunchtime at the moment.
What a star!

Yep great interview all class

Fantastic atmosphere … great result … thought we gifted them 5-6 goals through avoidable turnovers … so despite the second half fade-out still thought we could’ve won by more … Voss and Diesel after the game was great to see … next up the filth …

Embarrassing that a Carlton supporter behind us spent the first half shouting racist and homophobic abuse at players from both teams.
Thankfully he shut up after security spoke to him.

Wanker.

Did anyone see Syd Jackson at the coin toss? He forgot the coin and was looking a bit befuddled, then someone tossed a coin to him from off camera and he caught it as quick as a snake in one hand. He certainly still has the skills!

Shit , it just wasn't me . Agree J&K . Felt we kept 'em in the game . Thats inexperience i suppose .

It’s sad that stuff happens particularly when there are kids around too.

Probably one of the things I fear going to the footy with my kids.

Terrific game. The second quarter was off the charts. Sydney were always going to come. I thought the team held tough when it mattered.
Obviously the stars shone
Curnow
Walsh
Weitering
all brilliant
Hewitt has been a fantastic addition
I like the use of Cripps in the ruck
Kennedy has become a very solid mid
Fisher has more edge it his game as a floating forward
Young a terrific swap for SPS
DeKoning’s best game. Won a lot of tap outs

The most pleasing aspect of the win was the contribution of the lesser lights
O’ Brien’s second half
Owies was impressive . Always liked his aggression
Durdin impressed again
Motlop looks like player with footy smarts. I would keep him in instead of Martin
Cottrell was terrific early and late.
Carroll was quiet but is good at what he does.
Both Cottrell and Carroll are better options than Setterfield.

I been banging on that the best bottom 6 players get you over the line in big games
That’s what happened last night
O,Riordan, Bell,Ladhams, Wicks, struggled

Hats off to the team.
Turn up next week with the light switch on and we should beat Collingwood

Spot on Mick. To think they would simply roll over after halftime was never going to happen. The boys did a great job to hang in there and get a well deserved win . Belief is growing within this group . Bring on the filth, will be a huge crowd at the G.

Worth reporting to the club and telling them where you sat. They can then look at security footage and track down the culprit through various means.

Ban them. We don’t want those idiots at our club.

5 day break
Friday night football
44,000 there.
A tad undermanned in a few spots.
Against a highly drilled team of professionals.
The facts were on show - This Team has bought into the Plan according to Vossy and Co. So, so evident everyone is on the same page.
Vossy is well and truly on his way to having the Team playing a game that is sustainable and wins finals footy.
We have the toughness developing nicely, we just need to take steps towards the ruthless. Lions 3peat under Vossy knew all about being ruthless, so I day say we are on the way there as well.

On a side I note I absolutely loved seeing Diesel's big man-hug on Vossy, as they walked the boundary. Diesels joy was exploding from his face.

Life is good and getting better.

And TC - when we do faulter, and we will, just count to 10 and hold onto your bile and vitriol. If/when the team has a blip, trust in Vossy and Co and those above him to right the ship and power on.

A win against Collingwood and then the bye would be glorious. From there we can reset for a huge 3 months.

Ain't some positivity in Life grand, particularly with the Election today.

Regards Cazzesman
