    #AFL Round 15 Richmond v Sydney Etihad 7.20 pm EST 28 June 2018 #SydneySwans #SwansTigers

    No changes #AFLTigersSwans

    Starting benches
    Ellis, Higgins, Conca, Graham
    Rose, Hannebery, Cunningham, Jack




    Interesting bench for the Swans, no regular defender in there, Cunningham is the most likely of the 4 but that means they'll have to shift McVeigh/Zones further up field. Perhaps they are worried about Tigers small forwards being too quick for McVeigh.

    Posted in another thread but I think relevant
    One thing that may have been overlooked with the selection of Rose is that in the 2016 season where he strung a few games together he averaged over 5 tackles per game. Performing like that tonight could provide the edge in forward pressure that may decide the game
    Swans by 23

    That was an inciped effort by Aliir. Looked like he was too scared to pick up the ball.

    Insipid. Not the only one that's fumbling.
    It's very hard to live in a studio apartment in San Jose with a man who's learning to play violin. That's what she told the police when she handed them the empty revolver.

    Gee, how good is Ronke? Such a fast breakaway from the pack, he�s got pace that kid. Turning into a real danger man!!

    EDIT: and here come the umpires! Right on cue!

    Our accuracy in front of goals was pretty good. 11 goals 1 behind.
    Pity there wasn't more goals but Tigers outplayed us (I think).

    Fairer to say lucky we kicked straight ... it becomes a meaningless stat when all it discloses is that we would have been walloped if they kicked straighter. Only saw first 10 minutes and last quarter ... the latter was one beautiful start and then a totally pedestrian, error strewn farce ... we are sadly watching the demise of 2 fine players ... and they keep getting picked ... then we throw in Rose who will never make it ... and keep picking Rohan who has offered occasional pace / tackle and a couple of good goals a year amidst an abysmal possession count over a long period. Frankly it is amazing we had a chance at the start of the last quarter. Geelong next ... some changes needed. There is so much more speed in the teams playing well.

    Fascinating (?) trivia: it was the first time a team has scored 11.1 in VFL/AFL history.

    If you liked that fact, you'll like this chart of "first team to achieve every score achieved to date".

    Tony Corke on Twitter: "As @AndrewGigacz informed us, last night saw the first ever 11.1 score. Which teams were the first to record all the others?

    This Ronke is taking the world by storm. He's an amazing reader of the play. He just knows where the ball is going to go.

    Is it too early to turn off the commentary?
