Seems none of us here tipped the Power to upset the Swans in our tipping competition.

Very disappointing effort today from the Swans. Paul Chambers certainly has alot to learn. Oh how I wish Jason Ball could have played another season. Crying or Very sad

I realise it is only round 2, but Leo Barry's form is also a real concern. Problem is he was far from alone in being off his game today. Hopefully we can get on the winners list next weekend against the Blues.

God I hope this ain't the beginnings of a premiership hangover. Do Sydney deserve to go in as favourites against the Blues?

Something drasticly needs to be done with their energy work rate, also, seemed they just didn't want the ball.

Only early in the season.. but damn.

Ah crap the Swannies will be all fired up next week against Carlton.

There's no way Barry Hall wil have 2 poor weeks in a row and I can't see the Swans losing 3 in a row.

I think it will be a close game, but with Carlton coming off the dreaded road trip we might run out of legs.

I am at a loss to explain what is going on atm. We started well and I thought it was going to be a thrashing with O'Loughlin's first two goals. How wrong I was. Crying or Very sad

The second quarter was just abysmal. And what the **** is going on with all the handballs to guys who are under pressure. Lost count of how many times we turned it over through stupid handballs. Why not just kick it ffs. And how many ******* times do players need to be told to man up. It's a ******* basic of football ffs. There were far to many instances where Port players were at least 2-5m clear. Simply unacceptable. Evil or Very Mad

We certainly have some serious issues to address right across the ground. The guys just didn't seem all that interested in being out there yesterday and last week. No good playing somewhat competitive in the last quarter when the game is already over. Big crowd in attendance too. What a way to impress the new fans of the game. Rolling Eyes

I had actually pencilled in a victory against the Blues this week when I first saw our draw. Now I'm not so sure. Hope I'm wrong. You guys tipping the Blues against Sydney?

The Ca Swannies will go down in history as the ones who stole the Grand Final from West Coast.
