    You don’t have to tank. You do a Ross Lyon: put anyone you can in for surgery and play the kids with no attempt to be competitive.

    I'm torn. There are arguments both ways. I don't see any way we are making finals now, so its about getting a high draft pick vs culture. Actually culture is the most important thing so it has to be (b).
    We should pick our team with an eye for the future, given our finals hopes are pretty shot. Doesn't mean though that the players don't put in 100% with us fully behind them.

    I think the Mills in the midfield is a myth similar to the loch Ness monster and the Bigfoot!

    Looking great early. Hewett, Florent, Mills, Rampe looking good, as is the BUD

    That push free kick cost us big time ... 12 point turn around

    Great field kicking and disciplined play so far. You can really feel McVeigh’s presence down back marshalling troops.

    Bit of a worry most of our high possession winners are backmen. I admit we have been chipping it around there. Love to see Blakey and Reid get right into it.

    Good first quarter there. Shame about the 12 point turnaround goal or we would of had the decent lead we deserved.

    Just want a similar effort the other 3 quarters and I'll be chuffed.

    And how good is footy on a Sunday afternoon. Great crowd in too.

    Come on Swannirs!

    Nice to be in front at the break. Looked really good early. Both sets of forwards look dangerous. Hope we can get it in more than the Eagles.
