Looking the Goods
One of the more exciting games I have seen the Swans play was their most recent win against the Brisbane Lions. We led all the way without having a comfortable margin.
Much has been said about our trading of premiership players Schneider and Dempster, but it seems to have had the desired affect as the praise on our rookie players continues to grow.
Craig Bird, Kieran Jack and Ed Barlow have all impressed those commentating the games this year. It has been encouraging as a fan because like most I was left scratching my head at trade time also. Barlow's dodge and weave and bullet pass to Barry Hall's chest was most inspiring.
People are finally taking notice and giving us a bit of respect after being widely tipped to slide to the bottom half of the ladder. Season is still young of course.
I'm looking forward to the challenge of the Eagles, the first game I will be seeing live this season.

Tim, I reckon Barlow looks a beauty. Looks very athletic and versatile. His game on Sat v. Lions was excellent. Some players just look to have that little bit extra and I reckon he's got that.
