Nearly as much as Parker did on the ground at the time. Gave him a fair spray by the looks.

100% agree with him.


The first one I didn't have an issue with. The 2nd one he caused.

Swans are so clean and efficient with their handballing in contests and in tight, its killing North Melbourne.

The Roos have been absolutely under the pump in this third quarter, the Swans are well on top.

Franklin now passed Barry Hall in the all time goal kickers...

Mitchell and Hannerbery have been exceptional

We lose, all those keyboard warriors who've had one finger hovering over the submit button for the last month (and the other under the table) get to finally say "I told you North were shit, over rated, soft draw, blah blah blah" :lol:

Soft draw ;) ;) ;)

Convincing wins for the Swans, their mids dominated the Roos midfield group tonight.

Mitchell 41 disposals, 30 handballs plus 8 marks and 10 tackles. Huge night for him. Kennedy 35 plus 12 tackles and Hannebery 34, both were handball happy aswell and those 3 I've mentioned were excellent with their hands tonight. Everyone's favourite Petrie had the least touches with 6 disposals. No goals either.

When you initially posted I assumed it was the Swans all time goal kicking. That's what picqued my interest. Got me thinking how many swans games/goals each etc. My guess without doing any research is your all time would have names like Rantall, Capper, Lockett, Pratt.... Then Hall, Franklin. Is that about right Woody?

Sydney v North –

Two FNF blockbusters in a row for the Swans and this one back on familiar turf. It aint easing beating the Hawks anywhere, but the Swans last week beat them and did it well, they controlled the game most of the night and their back half was sensational. At Arden St - “Evening sir, you’ve been randomly selected to make yourself look silly, blow into this until I say stop, please”. Silly lad. On his P’s and .133. Not a good look. A more complete 4 quarter effort from the Kangas last week, they needed to show some intent against a lesser opponent. Big test here though and a belter to kick off the round again.

The Swans hardly need to add any strings to their bow, but they did with Gary Rowan making his way back into the side. He’s got pace to burn and adds another dimension to the Swans forward half. Like they need that. Heeney the albino surfey looking dude is a gun in the making and he plays as the third of fourth forward....pretty handy and how good are his hands? I mention Tippett pretty regularly, again he took control of the game against Ceglar and McEvoy, he did this in the middle and forward. He’s in ripping form. They’ll hope Richards comes up from his knock last week as they’ll need him on the North tall forwards.

Sitting 9-0 but seemingly just outside of the premiership talk, not sure why. Two prelims, two games clear on top, but in reality they’ve only beaten Adelaide and the Dogs as far as sides of any note goes. They only beat Melbourne by 5 points....so while you can only beat who you are playing at the time, here comes the test. Sydney, Richmond, Geelong, Hawthorn and Adelaide before the bye and we’ll know in 5 weeks if they’re genuinely the team to beat or if they’re top 4 material and will box it out with the others. The first of many tests this week and they’ll be without the important foil for the big men forward, Higgins, for at least another 7 weeks. That changes their set up.

While one thing has nothing to do with the other, the Swans will want to pay them back for the Roos beating them in the finals on home turf in 2015. Sydney by 22 points ( Sydney $1.38 Kangas $3.10 )



It appears your fluid testing apparatus may be in need of some minor calibration Boon. It produced a result that was 4 points off!
