If Oliver, Viney and Brayshaw get on top and the umpires shed their bias, we are seriously in this.

Yep, it's what has me quietly confident for the second half.  They lifted in that last ten minutes, so hopefully that has given them confidence.

I agree with others that we have been well beaten in some areas tonight, but the fact we are still in it is a real positive.  Our forward line has looked much more open which has allowed us to kick more goals and have those opportunities.  If the three you mentioned above continue to lift then we can get more of those chances in the second half.

If Jones is to play it must be up forward - useless elsewhere.

Hibberd is gone. Hore showing something.

Wagners will never be any good.

OMac just horrible.

Your last two statements i agree with. I haven't given up on Hibb's yet though.

Had a bit of a shocker.

I've felt Frosty hasn't been too bad so far tonight, apart from one kicking blunder.  He has generally done some good things down back.

U pairing is [censored]. Boundaries can’t throw the ball in. Field umpires always looking for a soft over the shoulder to the Swans and if we get a free they bring it back everytime allowing the Swans to manup. Front on contact to our forwards doesn’t exist. Anyway we are still in it. Petracca stand up mate!

Sure, but the forward line isn't really the problem, it's up the other end of the ground where we've been leaking goals all season. Even against Essendon we managed 18 goals - which, incidentally was the 3rd highest score in the whole round.

Long bombs i50 not hurting us as much. A few are thankfully looking shorter

[Moonshadow 17,676]

Hunt soft

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

Heeney is winning centre clearances from the wing!

[darkhorse72 1,920]

Good start...  first goal of 3rd unlike last week 

[Wadda We Sing 10,685]

My God were in front!!!

[DaveyJones'sLocker 647]

Finally paid front on contact only took them theee games to give us one 

[Gunna’s 2,104]

Did the umpires read demonland during the break? 

A free 15 out from OUR goal ?

[Clintosaurus 7,852]

That ump will be sacked

[Demonland 72,230]

About time we got a free in front of goal. Feels like it's been 15 years. 

[Moonshadow 17,676]

Front contact now but not in 1st quarter? Umpires are straight out idiots

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

Finally the umpires get one right.

[layzie 33,862]

The right start, now need to win some contested footy.

[Graeme Yeats' Mullet 6,778]

Had to have the downfield umpire pay that!!

Almost didn't get paid

[Demonland 72,230]

I'd love to get a possession out of the middle.

Florent too.

[Jaded No More 68,966]

We simply can’t let the ball into our defensive 50 because it’s a certain goal. 

[Moonshadow 17,676]

Jones field kicking! Arghhhhhhhh! 

[Dee Zephyr 19,267]

Let’s put Spargo on the mark again.
