Melbourne v Sydney Swans

[The Great Pretender 463]

Umpires are killing us!

[Cards13 9,117]

Fumbling early. Can the skipper take the ball with one grab? 3 goals down already. Thumping looking ominous.

Looks like he is really battling at the minute, doesn't look like it does he.

[Cards13 9,117]

Fantastic fwd pressure results in a turn over... Davey has a running shot in heaps of space.... point. Newton all on his own in the goal square.

Jurrah's 1st instinct is to look for the hand off which has been mentioned numerous times but is still so pleasing to see.

[Cards13 9,117]

Bennell runs out of the way of White, luckly we end up winning a free for holding the ball against White. Davey in everything, another inside 50 for him.

Moloney toe pokes in our 1st goal.

[MO FINE 171]

We're going to win this!

[Cards13 9,117]

End of the 1st couldn't really come quick enough for a battling MFC side. Davey is playing well daylight the rest.

Melbourne v Sydney, Quarter Time 1.2.8 - 3.4.22

Inside 50's 7-16 Swans way.

Fark me! Start of the 2nd... Jolly crumbs his own ruck tap, runs through 3 MFC players before giving off to a team-mate. Jolly then easily taps it to a Swans player from the resulting throw in, Swans easy goal.....

[Cards13 9,117]

Miller shot on goal after winning MFC won a contested ball. Point....

Jurrah chases really hard putting pressure on Shaw who puts it out on full.... Bomb inside 50 NEWTON nice mark.... what do you think he does with the kick folks... point from right in front 35-40 out

Newts doesn't get enough of it, he works hard to get the limited ball he does then can not convert.

Newton good mark but missed a set shot dead in front.....hopeless

[Dappa Dan 2,188]

Newton is smashing the bejeezus out of some of the Swans though... Wonder what DB said to him?

[Cards13 9,117]

Newts then cleans out O'Keefe nicely.

All Dees the last 8 mins, but can not put any scoreboard pressure on.

JURRAAAHHH really nice one handed mark (he must have been practicing this from his earlier one handed drop). GOAL.

[Wadda We Sing 10,685]

Jurrahhhhh what a mark

[Cards13 9,117]

Cheney leads O'Loughlin to the ball taking easy mark in front, plays on and gets run down, lucky he was driven face first. In the back.

Bate bombs it into fwd 50.... easily cut off.

Goodes all on his own on 50. Stef punches it through for point.

Score:

16 to 29

[Cards13 9,117]

Davey playing very well and Jurrah to an extent. The rest pppfffftttttt.

McKenzie takes easy mark then has his kick smothered. Davey recovers, glides through 3 swans and finds Moloney. Moloney then hospitals a handball to Jonesy, turn over...

Morton doing an ok job on Goodes.

Bruce a terrible turn over. Grundy is smashing the ginger out of Bate. 14 possies across centre half back so far....

Got to stop Goodes!

[Cards13 9,117]

Nice hands off from Newts to Jurrah.. has a bounce.. shot on goal... behind.

[Cards13 9,117]

These commentators don't know much about the Dee's.

"how did Jurrah slip through the whole national draft.."

Jurrah down injured.. ankle maybe.

[Cards13 9,117]

Jurrah back up running around.

[Dappa Dan 2,188]

Andy Maher says he's ooookaaaaayyyeee.... That's a season ender then.

Fair dinkum, I was about to throw up for about a minute there.

Nearly dropped the laptop when he didn't get up.

Half time 18 to 42 Swans way.

Whoever teaches footskills at the MFC needs to be taken outside and shot.

[beelzebub 23,377]

Gee... might have to rest Jurrah next week

[Jaded No More 68,922]

If it wasn't for Jurrah, I'd poke both my eyes out with a stick.

Worst game I have seen since we played Adelaide.

Thank god I want us to lose, because honestly we are just so bad when we go forward.

Newton is horrendous. Absolutely horrendous.

Jurrah can take the rest of the year off if he's not right. He is the only one who might win us a game at the moment.

Although you gotta give Morton credit; he's doing well on Goodes (I think that experiment has backfired!)

[Its Miller time 6]

Is Morton running around with Goodes all day? Would absolutely love Morton to become the next Goodes.
