The quality of games this year has been top tier. That was thrilling and entertaining. What a win.

@Soussy salty one watches all of them 🧂🧂🧂🧂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@Soussy BOOO!!!

[@Flamingbro69]

So damn proud of the Swans rn. Just the stardom and mental toughness of the side showed up last night and showed why they’re a dark horse for the premiership. Even without JPK and Buddy, the Swans can still pack a punch with the dominance of Mills and both McCartin’s on the ground. Tons of youth with Warner, Gulden, Rowbottom, Florent, Blakey, and of course McDonald dominating contests and kicking key goals and also Heeney and Papley leading the way towards the forward line. Also, shoutout to Reid for him playing well as his 3 goals were massive for us. Nonetheless, I’m definitely looking forward to the rest of this season!! SWOM!!!

[@TigerTime3672]

What a great game of footy, full credit to the swans, I have said this last week with the swans against the tiges that you can never count them out this year and they have been able to fight back from 4-5 goals again this week and give them more confidence for the upcoming season. The dees on the other hand, yet again have had a the game in the bag and have choked what should have been a comfortable win. This will be somewhat backs to the wall for the dees next week when they take on the pies on Queens birthday at the MCG.

I’m from the UK and watch this great sport on BT Sport. I think if there was a game broadcast on terrestrial/non-ppv it would be huge in the UK. It’s a great sport and needs more international exposure.

[@eddielong8663]

Good to know 👍. You might be surprised to find out that the biggest haters of this sport, tend to be the other Australians, living in the Rugby League states. They view AFL as domestic popularity competition and it makes them very mad 😡 whenever reminded that the game that they've grown up believing is number 1, is actually not number 1 afterall 😆.

Best win of the season without a doubt. Reid was absolutely insane, arguably best on ground and I can't wait to see what Logan McDonald will become! The McCartin brothers down back were awesome as well, as they have been all season.

[@TigerTime3672]

This will be a big upcoming week for the dees now when they take on the pies on Queens birthday at the MCG. This would be a really interesting match because Collingwood I think are the only team to have not lost to the dees from 2021-present.

[@TigerTime3672]

@Mcgronk haha yeah, I am not too sure what has been going wrong with the dees in the last couple of weeks but at the moment they are in a just a bit of trouble. I hope that the dees can find a way and respond against the pies but this will be a huge test for them considering that the pies have beaten the dees 5 of the last 6 occasions dating back to 2017 round 23.

[@AnthonyLeighDunstan]

Would you say crowd support had much to do with it? Watching the game on tv it seemed there wasn’t much vocal presence from dees supporters. By the same token the cheers from swans supporters shocked me with how loud they were. It could be the X factor against pies this week. (I’m backing the dees win or lose).

[@Rebekahlavy]

@@disneychannelartichoke1830 mate umpiring was actually fair for once. Was actually fairly consistent. You guys are probably used to getting more frees than the teams you verse. Whereas Sydney are used to other teams getting 10-20+ frees against them and not being given the same free when a incident or holding the ball situation happens to them. 23-24 isn’t bad and is pretty much equal.
