    Did the Thunder get down here OK ?
    All flights out of Darwin are cancelled at the moment (volcano in Indonesia).
    Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way you'll be a mile away and he'll be shoeless.

    You would think they flew in yesterday at the latest.

    I was viewing the Reserves v NT Thunder game from last year on You Tube. Jake Lloyd got BOG for us and you can see why he's playing in the seniors. The kid was everywhere. His kicking was precise. He seemed to have the kind of game that could transfer to AFL level, and so far it's going to plan.

    Pretty dominant so far from the Swans.
    I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
    We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

    Pretty good stream.
    I'm impressed by the level of effort and the skills. Ruck taps to own players could be better.
    Great run through the middle by Gary Rohan to set up a goal. Good to see Tommy Walsh mixing it with the Thunder.
    And I now realise that Membrey is pronounced Membray!
    He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

    A few nice little bursts from Rohan so far.

    Ryan seemed like he got a few touches there in the 2nd.

    Loving the fact that I can watch our reserves as we Mexicans dont get to see that usually. I am a bit disappointed though to see that the rolling maul has made its way to the NEAFL.

    Rohan seems to be beginning to show some of the glimpses of what we know he can do. Liking the look of some our tall timber as well. I am also beginning to see why we took the chance on Allir. He is very much still a work in progress, especially with his disposal, but has a very nice kick, and is very strong. Has something about him I think

    Great stream today - no problems at all

    Lots of Swans players making good contributions - a very even performance. Have liked what Abe Davis has done. He's showing good skills and a bit of mongrel too.

    Half Time: 78 to 36 Swans in front.
    The centre setups seem to need a little work; a couple of times Naismith or Nankervis have got first touch and the ball has gone through to the Thunder mids who seem a bit more adept at this stage.
    The Swans skills are pretty good and they can go coast to coast express style, exciting stuff.
