The defence held up but a good team really shouldn't be going down 2-1 I50's and -20 in contested posessions. Defence is only one part of the ground.

Anyone with a niggle should be rested next week. I'm thinking Hayward, Blakey and Grundy.
Parker forward - also winning move.
Hang on a second, Dodo finally stepping away from Essendon...?
NOOOOOOOOO

Sydney do like playing shit against shit sides , in isolation it wouldn't be as bad . I don't know , I guess after the Port loss I will take the wins any old way for now .

Some are hard to please. This had danger game all over it and we romped it in without three of our best players and our captain only just returning to form. Very good signs!
That’s the minor premiership wrapped up and now we can control our destiny. There’s potential to rest a few next week and we have the bye the week after that.
We will never get a better chance at winning a flag than we have right now.
Also, f*** Essendon.

Harsh to omit Corey especially .
I would rest Grundy and Adams , and yeah if Hayward is sore I would do that too and maybe Heeney to wrap the best player in cotton wool
then you can get the ins you listed if Fox is fit ?

Might be too slow ? when he went into the middle a little in the first half he couldn't keep up with shitty old laverde

He’s a huge swans supporter always has been.
Heeney (man) too. Don't want to risk him and he's always banged up.
Put Corey back in for a run.

Messy game, with Heeney &Parker again prominent in shifting the momentum, but moves need to be made earlier.
Really like Roberts game again, not sure he can be called unsung anymore, integral to our defence.
For me definitely the find of the season.
Liked Logan's game as well. No goals but provided a real target and top class movement.
Adams again disappointing for mine.
Parker clearly impacts more when moved on ball and I really don't see a spot for Adams, considering Papley, McInerney & Chad due back.
I'd also prefer Gulden start outside the centre squad. Stoppage play around the ground is fine, but others impact more in the centre bounces.
Nice full game from Cleary.
Jordon doing his job again.
Grundy needs a rest.
Hayward hampered throughout, but moved better with the bandage off in the 2H.
Love his competitiveness.
40 point win, top of the ladder, things to definitely improve on, but handy position to be in.

I just think the complete second half makes up for the shit start, Marvel, Essendon that was a worrying combo
What a poor first half. What an awesome second half.
Mills and Florent are back!
Campbell kept us in the contest. Hope its the start of something for us.
Parker not washed yet.
Whoever gave the mids a rocket at half time, kudos.
Whoever shut down Durham was superb.
Time to rest Grundy/Hayward and anyone with niggles.

Maybe if Amartey misses, just chuck Isaac at FF.
Corey doesn't really deserve it, but I'd like to give Sheldrick a shot before finals, depending on tomorrow, in for Adams. Whereas Chad is more a like for like with his brother.

I don’t like to take credit for our wins but LukeParkerno1 agrees, my jinx gave them the spark!!!
