Boys are pressing. Hopefully they can take advantage of a few Swans injuries.

GO BLUES !!

No,  side doesn't know how to win.   Casboult miss was critical,  killed momentum.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

I actually expected him to miss. Hitting the post was closer than I expected.

Any excuse to find a free to the Swans,  and they'll find it

Does Marchbank know he needs to kick to the guys in blue today?ie. his team mates, not the opposition.

Shameful performance.

The first two misses, Dow's and Harry's were solely due to a lack of concentration and technique. Dow tried to steer the ball through rather than kick through it, and Harry just didn't give a stuff. Thought this is easy, and missed.

That's another symptom of poor coaching.

Two more things,

1. Have you noticed how many of our blokes run past the opponent who has got the ball, rather than at them in a real desire to tackle?

2. If you want to know why Bolton can't coach, he's a good talker but can't coach, think back to the first quarter against Richmond.

Game 1 of the season, 85,000 people, and the coach can't have the players up enough to want to run through a brick wall for him and the supporters. So what do we get, a 5 goal to zero first quarter.

Forget what happened in the next two quarters, that first quarter cost us any chance of winning.

That said all that needed to be said about Bolton for me.

Another loss, but there's plenty of improvement from last year. Swans have plenty of stars and plenty of quality - there were never going to be zip-3.  I thought we'd lose by 2, so 3 is about right IMO.

Yes. Yes i have.
If by run you mean jog?
Yet for one quarter today we got it right and found some intensity. Then it all stopped. And we just started playing a zone and jogging around.
