Just about every player from both sides bent over and stuffed at the final siren.
It was pretty hot, and a lot of running.
I felt a bit sorry for all the kids in Giants gear, so was happy they got kick to kick.
Swans were on song, Giants made a fair few clanger .
Yep. Good call. In some ways, the best feature of what he did today was the kick to advantage to Goodes.
Rose is a natural footballer and in particular a natural forward who knows how to impact the scoreboard, Towers is an athlete who never looks quite comfortable when he has the ball and has poor skills.
I could sit on my fat butt in the back pocket drinking JD and cokes and have more to offer than Towers
Just as well they collectively came out with renewed intent in the 3rd quarter. That 1 goal 5 points 2nd quarter was a bit worrying!
Great to now have two young players to be excited about. Maybe giving James Rose jumper number 1 was prophetic! Like his self-belief. He almost kicked 4.
Towers is what he is ... and seems a pleasant bloke to boot ... not his fault coaches can't come to grips with his quite limited ability to influence games in any way.
Given that Heeney was subbed out with Rose the replacement, I imagine his role was to be the small forward. I would expect Heeney to re-gain his position.
Towers was played as a classic wingman, and did well enough.
Though Teddy was a real stalwart in defence today.
Absolute blessing of a game. Selection table will be interesting next week.
