The breeze is more across the ground now.

Jetta and Strauss have done a few good things.

Strauss = TJ's kick.

Bail & Sylvia playing well in the last quarter so far.

No goals yet, 44-42, their way.

how far in are we??

score update?

is moloney playing

Sydneys ruckman kicked a goal.

Beamer has been average in what is a low posession game.

Jetta with his first goal for the MFC.

Goal to Sydney's Mike Pyke from a Meesen tap out. Then a goal to Jetta. Two points down.

Sydney kick a goal from a turnover. 56-48.

Thank you all for the updates.

Just how bad is Meesen, or has he actually shown some glimpses of ability?

Sylvia with a lovely goal. 56-54.

Goal to Sydney's Mike Pyke from a Meesen tap out. Then a goal to Jetta. Two points down.

O'Keefe then Sylvia for goals. 3 points down.

Really glad we've been able to keep in touch and haven't let Sydney kick away with it.

Just missed a shot from outside 50. Sylvia is probably our best.

Sydney with a goal, game over.

O'Keefe then Sylvia for goals. 3 points down.

Long goal to Swans seals the game - 8 pts.

is it actually game over/?

We lost by 8 points?

turned into quite a good game in the final quarter! Our half dozen hail mary kicks to one of the 1 or 2 loose men in the swans backline could have made the difference, our backline is starting to gel quite well in my opinion. Oh well, at least i don't have to listen to another barry hall chant, but a snap that rolled across the face could have made it very interesting indeed!

Not sure of the final score but it is over. Sylvia, Bail and Bruce our best. McLean and Green were benched for the majority of the second half, hopefully they aren't injured.

Bell may have a leg injury, not sure. I think it was an 8 point loss.

If McLean and Green weren't on the ground for most of the second half (probably 2 of our best last week, and IMO our most important players bar Rivers), then that makes the last quarter even more impressive - even if we didn't get up.

Am looking forward to some reports coming through.

Thanks heaps for the updates everyone.

If this game was played with the same rules as the Nab cup, Then maybe green and McLean were used as substitutes?.

Grimes & Warnock also very good.

Chooka, were we playing with a 6 man forward line at the time?

Who were we missing from our best 22 today? Rivers, Buckley, Wheatley, Bate, Wonaeamirri, Robbo, Bartram, Whelan, Jamar...?

Just got home. Grimes for mine was BOG by a mile. Sylvia was quiet in first but strong in last three quarters. Promising first up performances by Jetta and Bennel. Bail had alot of ball late (when subbed on) but turned it over numerous times. Strauss used it well when had it but was timid at the contest a few times. Our backline overall was outstanding. Major concerns we were smashed in the clearances after qtr time and our forwardline was completely disfunctional. Our only decent forward was Miller who has no confidence in his goal kicking. Newton's effort was improved but he is just not an AFL footballer. Considering the strength of the Sydney side on display and knowing the players to come back in to our side I left the ground content with the display but wondering how we will kick winning scores this year.

I guess you could include Watts and Blease as "missing" also.
