    at least we made the change to plus 1 defence 5mins to go in the 1st qtr today

    last week we didnt make the chnge until the last minutes of the 2nd qtr when we were 40 or more pts behind

    I confident we can come back from this one.........2 goals behind is nothing compared to last week !

    Goodes is struggling big time in my book - he just seems to be well off the pace. Shaw and Grundy not doing well either. We stemmed the momentum in that quarter but need to improve our decision making a lot in the 2nd half if we are to win.

    Ramps isn't getting his body behind the ball. Fatal in the wet. Shaw, OMG!
    We have them where we want them, everything is going according to plan!

    Not watching as I get too nervous. Any cause for optimism at all?

    He's looking slower than last season... and he was a slug last season!

    Goodesy's second efforts have to come from the ground these days...loses his feet much more easily than the good old days.

    His first half, even though he had plenty of his mates down as well, didn't fill me with confidence for his immediate future in the 22.

    Awful conditions, they're taking most chances near goals and we're not, 2 genuine howlers from Rhyce that both resulted in goals and we're down by 2. I'm not outrageously concerned.

    That free against Teddy was NOT there. Buddy and Tippett are held worse than that every week!

    I get really concerned at the number of seemingly Swans fans intent to show a lack of respect for Goodesy. Sure he may be past his best, he may not be playing well, etc, but opinions and displeasure can be expressed in different ways, one is with respect and one is with disrespect. It really makes me feel sad to read some of these posts.

    Hope my post didn't come across that way, because I didn't mean for it if it did. Speaking of Goodes, he did a damn good tap from the ground at the end of the second quarter that Kennedy totally butchered when going for goal.

    Nice goal by Tippett there!

    Also love that Tommy is near the top of the disposals count.
