    Forward pressure has been amazing. If we were just a little cleaner going forward.

    Nothing wrong with the umpiring. If you think the Crows frees were soft, Cunningham's was a little hard on the Crows.

    Just a great contest at the moment and being played at a breakneck speed. Wonder how long both teams can keep this up for. Swans mids have been great winning the ball but they're back to the kick and hope when bringing it forward. They just need to take an extra second or two to kick to a forward's advantage.

    I think McGlynn is answering those who think he's past it!

    Our mids have been sensational so far. It is our forwards who look lost..

    Umpires are giving them very soft frees in front of goal!

    Benny has started well.

    Jack might have concussion .
    We dominated the stoppages and clearances in that quarter but our forward delivery was poor. Crows look good on the counter attack. Start delivering the ball into the forward line to advantage and we will win.

    Midfielders have been very sharp. So far Parks looks well on the way to more Brownlow votes. Now if the forwards start clunking them and the umpires stop letting the crowd umpire, then we should be right.

    That is disgraceful umpiring

    Yeah right...AFL is not rigged at all....Some really 'suspicious' umpire calls here......What is the betting on this game?

    That should have been a goal to Harry....it wasn't conclusive that it hit the post and the umpire call should have stood, because that's what usually happens.

    It should have been a mark to Rampe in the forward 50 because that's what usually happens and if it had been a black a white jumper, instead of a red and white jumper, that's what would have happened...

    Seems to be a different measurement of 15m depending on which end they are at!

    Liz the Adelaide player made no attempt to get rid of the ball. Didn't even "pretend" to bunch the ball. Clear holding the ball.

    We need the posts to be moved a mm...2 posters this quarter.
