Great game , afl is at its best when you get those types of contests with both sides attacking ,
as a tiger happy with the rebuild on the run in progress ,
It will be amazing if we can stay top eight while rebuilding. I didn't expect to win last night but early in the third quarter started getting excited, all the while knowing we wouldn't go any further in the finals series anyway.
if we get Sydney next week, i think we are a good chance. If it's Melbourne we'll get hammered.

@mariner4life I think it was the second highest clearances by an individual player in AFL finals history.
-
@antipodean from the premiership side we have already lost caddy , Houli , lambert , astbury , and now Edwards , only Edwards played last night as sub from that group , the young guys that have come in this year are starting to look really good ,
Jack and cotch are the two who might have one year left max ,
Then there is dusty , who knows what’s happening there , while it will hurt to see him running around in other colours , he is getting on and it frees up a lot of money. From a footy perspective and taking the emotion out , looking ahead it isn’t as bad as it sounds losing him now to free up 1.3 million off the cap .
The rest of the premiership group have a lot of footy left in them still , and some of those guys that were the young players are looking more like leaders .
I’m feeling more positive than I did earlier in the year .

This game definitely a step up in defensive pressure compared with last nights. Still an enthralling contest.
-
This is some game.
Swans up by a goal going into HT.
After HT the Dees kick 3 unanswered goals.
Then Swans kick the next 3 and now have al the momentum.
-
Swans up by 13 points and now Max Gawn nails one from 45m out.
-
3QT and Swans up by 2 goals.
Would be massive if they hold on at the G against the Dees.
-
Swans pressure is just relentless.
-
Cheer cheer the red and the white!!!
The play in the final 10 where the demons took an inside 50….and then played on, ran them down and then Like three smoothers in a row before clearing! That defensive pressure!
-
Well well, that's the season tipped on its head aye?
Melbourne will flog the Lions next week
Then v the Cats
Really happy for the Swannies, they are such a well run club.
-
Lol the Lions flag odds actually went out after a game we didn't even play!
-
This game is sick

Now the Dockers trying to drag back a hot Dogs start

And doing it superbly.
A goal the difference at 3QT. Another classic coming up.

I'm on the Dockers here
But I love Caleb Daniel. Midget. Wears headgear. Least AFL player ever. But gets heaps of it and is clean as a whistle.

He uses the ball so well and for a guy his size that works across half-back, he is very effective.
Good win by the Dockers. Being down 41 points and then winning by 2 goals. Now they travel to Melbourne to face the Pies at the G. If they can get their running game going they could challenge the Pies.
-
great weekend of games. All tight, all different, all in front of big loud crowds
Now to the 2nd round
Melbourne hosting Brisbane at the 'G where they will be huge favourites.
Collingwood hosting the Dockers where you imagine there will be fuck all in it.Then the big question, does the pre-finals bye hamper the major semi winners, as they only play once in a month?
We all said how open the finals were, and it's very much looking that way at the moment.

this play, an inside 50 and the pure hustle to get back and smother it!
