And if you're correct (and you may well be... but relo's at the game thought Swallow was doing the defending) why would we play our most creative forward in a shut-down role?... Crazy!
BMac made reference to it in his press conference, it was the match up we wanted. Gold Coast wanted to play Swallow behind the ball and we wanted him chasing Murphy around rather than setting up attacks. Murphy certainly kept him busy, with 19 touches, 7 marks and a goal, whilst Swallow only managed 16 touches.
If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.
