Friday Night: Sydney Swans vs. Carlton Blues



Slippery Swans in Sydney

It was a very wet Friday night in Sydney when the Swans battled it out with Carlton, the Swans were obviously better at wet-weather footy than Carlton who seemed to hate it. The Swans used the rain to their advantage making a point of ending the game at half-time when they led 5.9.39 to 1.5.11 (that goal coming off a gift from the umpires, and I’m saying that even as an anti-Swans person). Carlton won the second half though, but it wasn’t enough to prevent a 22 point defeat.

Best on ground was Bird for the Swans with 33 disposals, 25 kicks, 8 handballs, 2 marks and 5 tackles.

The Swans have an easy in Melbourne next week at the MCG while the Blues will fight to close a two-game gap between them and the 8 when they take on Collingwood at, surprise surprise, the MCG (even when Collingwood “away” they’re at the MCG).

My tips: 1 from 2
