    If we play like we did in the second half last Saturday, it should be a great game

    If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

    Hopefully we turned the corner with our form in the second half on Saturday.

    Yes that was the big positive. Need to be like that in the 1st half as well on Friday against a formidable opponent but someone who all of us knows we beat last year in the prelim final.

    Two Swallows don't make a summer, or Round 6.


    NORTH Melbourne has made a statement at selection as it seeks to turn its winless start to the season around, with stalwarts Andrew Swallow and Lindsay Thomas dropped for Saturday night's clash against Gold Coast....

    The Suns have made one change, replacing rested midfielder David Swallow with Jesse Lonergan for the clash at Etihad Stadium.

    Swallow has looked cooked the times I've seen him this year. The game has gone past him.

    Saints banner today was a good one having a crack at the Hawks for giving them a first round draft pick.

    Saints with a nice lead.

    Swans look like getting their first win of the season but aren't safe yet

    Saints doing the right thing by Hawthorn's first pick, hoping to them. Hurting their percentage bigly might be the difference between pick 3-5 or so.

    Has a team lost their dominant aura as quickly as this Hawthorn team has?
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.
