Warnock was at Bowden most of the day as well. Kept trying to throw him on the ground when the ball was up the other end. Hero.

Speaking of the MRP, do the Swannies get a soft ride or what as far as reports :P.

Good to see Nick Stevens get a week. Hope we play the Blues again in round 1.

Oh yeah unless its a Barry Hall on Brett Staker the Swans will get the nod all the time. How Jude Bolton was not suspended is beyond me.

Yes Hopefully we get our wishes as opposed to Collingwood and Geelong in round 1 and we play Carlscum minus Stevens. :pray
