A hard fought win in the end by the Swans, the Hawks came back at them but they were able to hold on. Just got up and saw all the messages about the Swans--it's going to be a great day 🙂 Of course, they play a really good game and I can't watch. Grrr. But, at least they won. Thanks for keeping me posted. Go Swans! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted July 25, 2020 #302 Share Posted July 25, 2020 It was nice that they won, and it did have some good highlights, but it wasn't a good game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see your point, but any Swans win is a good game 🙂 It was quite a weekend--Swans win, Essendon just gets by the Crows, nice win by Carlton, Lions outlast Melbourne, and Cats beat Dockers--I saw the last bit of that game. Baseball games are being postponed here due to virus issues, so maybe there will be more AFL??? Go Swans! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoWhiners Posted July 30, 2020 Author #311 Share Posted July 30, 2020 A bit of a mixed bag for me this week. We will only get 1 game, but it's the Swans!! Yay. It will be on at 1 AM. Ugh. And we are playing St Kilda--not sure we can beat them. 😞 I will try and watch it but 1 am is truly the middle of the night 🙂 Go Swans! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoWhiners Posted August 2, 2020 Author #315 Share Posted August 2, 2020 I got up at 1st quarter time, saw the score, which was still close. I laid back down and St Kilda scored 3 more times, so I went back to sleep. Just checked the final score--glad I went back to sleep. go swans! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Swans were just not competitive. They will get some early draft picks next year when they finish near the bottom of the ladder. Time to re-build the side with some new talent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checked, Swans have a bye next round. Round 12 Swans play Giants Thursday 13th Aug at 8.10pm in Perth.
