    Callum Mills: was that a faultless game by him or what.

    Great game by the whole team. As soon as Buddy stepped up, the team stepped up, what a fabulous athlete he is...

    Who is this Sinclair bloke? Surely not the same Sinclair that was playing for us this year? LOL

    Good win.

    I really enjoyed the crowd too. Was sitting up in the highest tier and the atmosphere was friendly and just great. Even with the Bombers supporters...

    Cheer Cheer

    Not when the Swans are playing like this.

    Great atmosphere, huge crowd. Bay full of vocal Bombers fans below the Brewongle started loud, soon went pretty quiet!

    Now Sinclair has found his marking hands and kicking boots, he and Franklin are a handy partnership. Naismith a genuine ruck, Reid as swingman, feels like all the tall bases are covered really.

    Safe to say ruthless turned up tonight may there be 3 more rounds of it.

    He is just so composed for a kid that age, hard to see him moving into the midfield any time soon

    I can see him becoming a backline general.....the future 'finger pointer'.

    On what basis would that be?

    One word sums up the performance tonight: comprehensive.

    It was a bit of a flat spectacle in the last quarter, but it was great to see them win in front of a full house.

    Ruthless and Accuracy definitely played their part tonight. If they are joined by Curiosity next week we will be fine.

    Well the intended humour aside, I subscribe to the theory that every loss is one game closer to the next win.

    120 years of losses, there must be a win coming up somewhere (think the America's Cup 1983)

    But it was mostly humor ... thanks for making me explain it

    Sat next to 85 yr old Les who had escaped from a Randwick nursing home .
    His wife had passed away, so he had to get to the footy.
    He only had one red and white eye, every time a small Essendon player got the ball, he'd just yell out "you little bastard!!!" Every time a tall Essendon player got the ball, he would yell our "you big bastard".
    When a SWANS player got the the ball, he burst out laughing and continue laughing like mad if we scored a goal.
    It was quite infectious, so I just started laughing as well. Pretty much the whole game.

    He shared his coffee and wafer bikkies and I got him some hot chips.
    The amount of salt on them could finish him off, but It was a most enjoyable day at the footy.

    09183305 was replying to my post which stated the fact that the Cats have never beaten the Swans at the 'G.......ever.
