Pretty scrappy game, Cats not handling playing an AFL side very well so far, Swans not playing well but scoring freely because the Cats defense is struggling big time.

Stewart is a prime example of a golden ticket being cashed tonight, had a terrible fumble that caused a goal and didn't get the clanger somehow, actually gained points on his clanger FA, his one contested mark gained 18 points. Even his ineffective touches are being graded effective! Those subjective calls change a score entirely.


Mills been really strong, be interesting to see if he can run it out this week as has fell dead the last couple of games.

Heeney feasted on cheap free kicks early, feasted on pure class late, two really quality goals late, I'm not sure he's had a man yet though. Role not good but he's too good to be left unmanned inside 50 all night. Started wing, been forward since but is making hay while the sun shines or you know, kicking goals whilst completely undefended :LOL:

Gulden will be in my side next year, if he's not in it this year, kid is such a gun.

Stephens having another really solid game, just working up and down his wing, good in the contest again, couple of nice tackles, got framed for a clanger by the seagull who made a moronic decision and then hospitaled him! Been really strong.

Warner huge game so far.

Lloyd is a bit of a victim of the Cats being so inept so far but has been sloppy also, has cost two goals directly.

Parker started forward or maybe even bench, hasn't really been needed and just going through the motions so far.

McCartin massive Q1, like Lloyd, very little opportunity in the 2nd.

Blakey did a few nice things but not enough so far. If he gets suspended for his report it would be an absolute shock, not even sure there's sufficient force in it.

Close has been enormous for the Cats, only one who has really showed up, has laid probably the 4 best tackles of the game.

Duncan same old, not sure he's been near a Swan when he's had the ball, actually impressive to have two clearances without a contested touch :LOL:

Guthrie motions, going through them.

Cameron struggling a bit, looks sore.

Danger has been dreadful, cant get near it, did get a few late touches in the 2nd quarter so might be able to go on with it and salvage something.

Stewart as mentioned has been kissed on the **** by CD, been really ordinary but scoring amazing. Kind of game where the owners just thank their lucky stars as he's going to end up with a good score despite playing rubbish and seemingly being involved in every Swans goal in a negative way.

Holmes hasn't gone near it all night and when has he's been caught with it...

Stengle playing AFL this week and not going nearly as well so far, Cunningham is a MUCH harder task than the red and black witches hat he was running around last week. Was pretty unlucky on the 50 to be fair as Heeney did knock it for sure.

Hawkins I almost forgot was playing when doing this, two stinker kicks from him, well below his standard or his score could be very different but T. McCartin has beaten him outside those two marks/shots.

The double whammy of being a Cats supporter and non-Heeney owner 😩.

Dyl Stephens looking much better this week
To be fair, scoring much better this week but he was very good last week and is playing basically the same as he did. Couple of tackles that stuck this week and a few more touches but fundamentally the same.
