Massive moments at each end - great judgment by Hirst to take the mark after the Uni player blew a chance from right in front.

Great comeback win - well done boys!

Great last quarter. Encouraging to see Sam stand up with a few big moments.

Aspley are up over the Giants 55-33 a fair way through the fourth.
I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time
Swannies!!
Great win, Swans. Very promising from Naismith. McInerney great in the last. McLean flew all day. Agree Pink should get a shot in the firsts next year.
But great pressure by a Swans player to cause him to muff it.Originally Posted by mcs
I only saw the second half but McInenery looks a really good player. Pretty much got us over the line with Naismith in the last quarter. Sam's agility seems to have improved big time. If he can stay fit, just him in the side makes us better. His around the ground play was pretty good.
Good that we go through to next week to give Naismith another game under his belt. Gets through that game and then has a full pre-season.
Nice win from the boys. Naismith looked fit, an injury free pre season and he'll have a good year in 2020. I hope Rose gets one more year and one more chance. I just don't understand why he doesn't succeed in AFL. He's a level above the rest.
I think it was toppy Max Geddes who swooped late, to put the Uni player of his kick. One thing that's usually impressive with the academy players, is their harassment of the opposition.
That was some final quarter. I wonder what was said to them at three quarter time, because their intensity was pretty poor in the third quarter but lifted immensely in the final term.
Really enjoyed Naismith showing glimpses of what he can do. Based on what I've seen (admittedly over a long and spread out stretch) in the NEAFL, he's capable of far more than just getting his hand on the ball at stoppages.
His mobility and agility have been underestimated on this site I reckon. Hope club's patience with him is rewarded re his fitness.
Wicks: 16 tackles!
