That’s human nature reflected on here. A win always receives far less posts, a loss attracts all the whiners , whingers, baggers and critics.Originally Posted by Markwebbos
GWS played their champagne footy for a couple of quarters which is actually poetry in motion, they sprint (not just run) to vacant space, hit their man lace out , play on knowing someone will be either overlapping or in free space further afield and usually rack up goals. Luckily they missed a lot.
They took some outstanding marks especially inside 50. They are so athletic and looked the winners at the long break even though they were still only a couple of goals up.
Swans were chasing, slipping over and even Aliirs sure hands looked clumsy . He was often frustrated calling for leads from players seemingly glued to the grass compared to the dashing Giants.
It’s been a ferocious three weeks , Swans looked like they couldn’t find much more.
I paid $86 (best seat ) to end up with a mob of Buddy Booers and numskulls who didn’t seem to understand the rules . There were spare seats throughout the stadium. The ground announcer proudly boasted it was a SOLD OUT crowd and thanked all the Giants supporters !
After the long break and a legal drink of Go-Swans, an over ripe banana, a quick lie down and some meditation led by S. Johnson and Mr Cox they came out late looking very sleepy and wandered to the bench (Haywood, Macca, Jack and someone) and the rest to their glue spots .
Something had worked, maybe the banana. They were now glued to their man . The Giants didn’t like this , they preferred playing kick to kick . The Swans found a minuscule bit more mongrel than the Giants .
Buddy was furious they looked like going down as was Joey and Parker and Macca and Isaac. There was definitely more movement at the station and the BBOOING got louder especially if he got a free.
It was great theatre as now the Swans were up to Buddy’s ears back in the game. The wind in the final term helped and nailing some difficult shots .
It was an excellent win to make three epics in succession . Great team to support .
Buddy seemed to be moving OK chucking mini balls into the crowd . Hope he’s good this morning.
Had some good Food outside ANZ.
I got a free park a fair distance away but then rode my bike to Spotless.
What an awesome night at the footy. Brilliant win Swans as underdogs again .
No visible injuries . How’s Mr Reid going these days , does he train ?
