I thought Lamb might be cooked by the last quarter, but he helped curry us over the line in the end.

The King!
Chosen One
You ever checkedout other boards general afl chat during our games, there is a very bitter group, jealous when the media like us etc, wont give away which but lets just say they would of loved 11 more points last year
As good as players as they are and have been the Swans really have nothing to worry about when O'Keefe, Bolton and even Goodes retires as we really do have some good players coming through to replace them. Obviously the 3 players listed are impossible to replace entirely but it is not like we have no one waiting that cannot step up to an AFL level.
Wouldn't bother.
Really happy with the 4 points and a solid victory. Lamb, B.Jack, Mitchell future guns. Throw in Rampe they all make Armstrong look pretty ordinary.
Our depth just improved significantly as we now know Jack and Lamb can play senior level. I like the cut of Xavier's jib too.

Did not see the game but wow, that must have been some game by Bird! I would have been happy with any win with the number of players we had out. You would have gotten long odds on Brandon Jack and Xavier Richards both getting games by Round 14, and the team still being in top 4 contention. Oh, and we broke the Malthouse hoodoo.

Might have been posted already, but i seen a stat on Twitter. 511 rushed behinds this year and Malceski's was the 1st to be penalised for deliberate. 
Lunch bez. I was eating lunch.Ive seen blokes go out for a beer before the game, grab a pizza, kebab, pie, hot dog, fish and chips maybe a counter meal, steak, parma and a pot etc but I gotta admit this is the first time Ive heard a football fan hitting up some sushi, you Sydney guys sure do things differentlol
Rampe, X. Richards and B. Jack all playing from the last rookie draft. Yet to see a player from last year's national draft. Why are we better at finding gold in the left-over scraps, then drafting what should be more straight forward selections?
I have no idea but it is not just this year either as we have been doing the same thing for years. Other than 2009 our first round draft selections have been terrible but we have found gold in the second and third rounds.

Not sure if to barrack for Freo or Geelong - Geelong win might put us back in the four on percentage depending on the margin. Freo win and we are only two points behind the cats. Enjoy getting ahead of myself after a win.

Just got to win ourselves and let the rest take care of itself. Extremely competitive up the top for sure, i think we'll make it. But i think it might end up hinging on our game vs the Cats later in the year to secure a spot. We'll see. It would be a serious **** up to lose any of our next 2 games, whilst i fancy us to extend our good form against Eagles. (If it's dry
)

Left the pub I was watching the game the second that Malceski decision was paid. OMG what a disgrace
Will catch a replay just to see vision of Micky getting mad on the boundary/box.
Seen that BJ did some nice things, will be better than his brother barring injury and such.
Exciting times where we can show Jack, Mitchell, Lamb and consolidate Everitt due to injuries.
PS: Parker will be our best player by grand final day. Kid improves with every game.

I reckon Geelong are more vulnerable than Freo to slipping down the ladder in the back half of he year so II am hoping for a Freo win to further destabilise the Cats.
The next few weeks will be the time for us to catch up to the top four as there are quite a few games that they could drop.

Glad to see I wasn't the only one chucking a shit at our 2 uber spuds yesterday. A couppla guys behind me were going off at both Jesse & Everitt too.
How good was B.Jack? Think what you will, it's only a matter of time before the likes of Jetta will have to earn their spots. B.Jack is a flyer!

Everitt? Uber spud? He had a good game, and he's been anything but spudworthy over the last few outings.
Agree with Jack jnr though. His movement in the wet was superb at times. We have a potential future star on our hands.
Hope that's not true terrible behavior especially against Everitt who had more than a serviceable game in the conditions.

The thing about Jesse that continually frustrates me is he seems to prefer going into a contest behind his opponent. If he were to lead up in front would be a must better target and subsequently damaging player
Must've been a couppla morons.

Everitt looked one of the best yesterday i am liking his game more and more
The test will come in a few weeks to see where his consistency is at.

Really stepped up with Mattner's retirement and has looked to secure his spot there. The fact he is flexible is an added bonus really

To me he had passed the consistency test this season since he got back in, id be surprised if the coaches feel he has failed to peform his role too often
