Ahh, the single-minded determination of a Labrador at a food bowl, is truly one of life's marvels.

Brilliant effort by the commentator- he didn't draw breath!

A little bit of joy for a challening time - sensational. I could listen to that guy commentate anything - the scottish accent is just brilliant

This is a fun read too - Swans influence on pop culture hehe and Jude Bolton nonetheless!

I suppose the song partially compensates for the US $3,000 cover charge? Just lucky they didn't name the song, Crazy European Guy.

The AFL site is showing a replay of a Swans v Carlton game, at 1pm this afternoon. It's either going to be the 2010 elimination final, or some game from 2011, which Carlton won.

It’s the former and Carlton have just taken the lead late in the third. Judd having an influence despite the close attentions of Kizza. JPK to be thrown on him in the last IIRC.

The two rucks going at it at the moment Sam Jacobs and Shane Mumford are now teammates at a club that didn’t exist at the time of this game.

Bloody good fun.

What stood out for me was how good Hannebery was in his 27th game. So composed and clever ejecting the ball from contested situations. Also, a break out game for the club by Kennedy.

On the other hand, kind of a shame that TDL only played 9 more games for the club.

TDL? Only vaguely remember him but geez he looked handy (2 babies in the house, not much time to sit down and watch a full game if footy). What happened to him? Jarrod Moore as well? Mike Pyke just amazing especially considering his late start to the game. Enjoyed watching it - makes me miss the footy even more. Damn you Covid!

Our fixture throwback match this week, is on tomorrow at 1pm. Our opponents are the Giants. I suppose that we've had some classic matches against them, but none really spring to my mind? Maybe there was a match or two late in the season, that we narrowly won and boosted our position in the eight? I suspect the match that they run with, will be the 2016 qualifying final; in which they beat us fairly easily.
