Blowout & Blowup
Well an impressive performance by the Swans over an understrength Eagles outfit. Our stars seem to be warming up nicely with new guys hitting their straps earlier than expected.
Michael O' Loughlin was my BOG showing agility, awareness and most importantly for a key forward, clean hands in contested marks.
The game was really over well before the final siren with the Swans dominating in every contest and outscoring their opponents in every quarter.
Unfortunately a Brain spasm by Barry Hall has marred the night and left a bit of a sour taste in the mouth. In case you weren't watching he clocked opponent Brent Staker square in the chin. Staker was not to be seen for the rest of the night as I think he was sent back to Perth time.
My guess is that he will at least 3-4 weeks. Perhaps the only thing in his favour is the fact that he wasn't facing Staker so it can't be called a "King Hit" where Rugby Leagues players in recent years have received 8 - 12 weeks.
He may be out injured anyway after running into the fence late in the game.
Time will tell, dare i be optimistic?
