Loving Sanders' edge. Playing angry. Looks up to the pace of the game and physicality is miles ahead of early in the year. Great signs.

Excellent game so far. Loved it when Chompers halved the aerial contest in our defensive goal square against one of their tall forwards and saved a goal about halfway through that qtr. He does a couple of those acts every week.

Agree Jeanette54. We?re in this right up to our eyeballs. Boys are doing us proud. Just need to hit up our forwards better and we can win this. X finger Naughts injury is not a bad one.
Garcia - you bloody gun!!!
Richards, Bont, Treloar, Jones Boy, Saunders, Doc?. So many doing well.

Love that I knew who you were talking about as soon as I read Chompers.
He looks confident and is giving us a fair bit that doesn't always translate to a stat sheet.

How about a bit of credit and gratitude for the things the boys are doing right.
Really? I feel like the vibe is pretty good.
Lots of worry for Naughton but I think there have been enough compliments and positive comments!
It's the game day thread babyyyyyy

I really hope those misses and the loss of Scott and now Naughton find us coming up short.
This is going to be a very, very tough second half if we're not at 100% for 100% of the time remaining.

We need to be smarter with our ball use into F50 in the 2nd half. No Naughts so we need to spot up the shorter leading targets, otherwise they will double and triple team JUH and Darcy.

I'm very proud of the performance so far, but we're in a very precarious position against a tail up opposition who the whole football love is in love with right now.

Jon Ralph said word from the dogs is we aren't sure.
My read is that the ACL integrity tests were negative, but because they aren't very reliable with false positives/negatives they will have to do scans to confirm anyway.

Best guess is it's not immediately apparent it's an ACL, however need scans to confirm.
Edit: what our resident physio Dr JD said.

Nothing conclusive. Tests.. clubs hoping it's like his previous knee injury in that final against GWS a few years back.
I think they're putting a very hopeful spin on it.
See what the tests say and hope for the best. It's a horrible scenario for us. He's impossible to replace as like for like.

At the game half time
Not much in it.
65 vs 70 % kicking efficiency.
Swans area very disciplined teamand dont give us much space.
We need to take our chancesm those missed shots in front ofngoals need ti cinvert.
Jones great mark at end of second quarter.
Richards was on fire in hmthe first quarter.
Hope Naughton is ok but it looked bas..
Scott very unlucky.
We need to win thus game , big challenge.
