Shut up, the foot is on Triple M!

0:03

This is Triple M Footies Mini Match of

0:05

the Round. Now get ready

0:07

for the first quarter. Away

0:10

we go, Saturday Night Footy, good crowd

0:12

building at the SCG, perfect bounce as well.

0:14

Neither Ruckman decisive, taken out of there by Merritt

0:16

who takes the Bombers inside for it. 50 Jessmark

0:18

taken 45 metres out as well and Gresham will

0:21

think about going back for the shot on a

0:23

slight angle here. Great start there by the Bombers,

0:25

just a nice hit down there from Draper and

0:27

the one kicks straight into the foreline. I mean

0:30

that's what you want to see at training or

0:32

something like that, they've brought it into the match.

0:35

Now the former Saints who kicked a goal

0:37

last week on debut for the Bombers after

0:39

making that switch in the

0:42

off-season. It's been around a long time now,

0:44

good for a goal a game throughout

0:46

his St Kilda career as well. You should

0:48

kick from right around the arc here towards

0:51

the MA Noble stand

0:53

and strikes it beautifully. Drop pun

0:55

is bending back and the Bombers have the

0:57

opening goal of the game inside a minute

0:59

here from J. Gresham. One

1:01

goal straight six to Sydney no score

1:03

on the triple M Bunnings straight scoreboard.

1:06

45 seconds in, two kicks for the match and

1:08

they've got a goal, that doesn't happen too often.

1:11

And what I love about this crowd too is

1:13

there's a lot of Bombers supporters make the trip

1:15

up to Sydney to come and watch their side

1:17

play. A lot of the Melbourne teams

1:19

do that but the Bombers especially and you

1:21

know great crowd lifter when you're getting a goal. 45

1:23

seconds in, triple M C bar, super special comments tonight. Troy

1:26

Lough with us, C bar super making hard work

1:28

of pay off since 1984. So

1:32

the Bombers away to a hot start. They

1:34

got the job done last week over Hawthorne,

1:36

24 points the margin there and they

1:39

did score freely at times. So

1:42

perfect night for footy in

1:44

the Harbour City. We get set to do

1:46

it again. The Bombers

1:48

draw the first blood. I

1:51

notice Rampy's going to string her as well.

1:55

Bring the bounce back. I like that

1:57

match up Brad. Good they're both. Same

2:00

sort of size, stocky build. Well

2:02

he's so often the barometer for Pareson and him.

2:04

The stringer gets going and he tends to light

2:06

him up. So the ball elevates again in the

2:09

middle, Draper gets rid of Grundy, gives it to

2:11

Merritt. Round the body ball, high

2:13

up and under towards half board, Caldwell waits

2:15

underneath it. And takes

2:17

the mark, hugs it to his chest, gives it

2:19

to Merritt. Merritt follows up, wants

2:21

his left side, drive it to a hot

2:23

spot. Dangerous spot, Collins, was he being held?

2:27

I think he was, was Cox being held, he

2:29

was, you'll get a free kick and he's only

2:31

15 and up. Directly in front, northern end.

2:33

Not sure about that match, I'll call a little

2:36

Blakey. There's 13 centimetres of difference

2:38

in size and that kick there, Blakey didn't use

2:40

his height to try and get over the top

2:42

and spoil it. And in the end it was

2:44

an easy mark to call. Swans yet to touch

2:46

the ball and there's only been six disposals in

2:48

this match so far and they're going for the

2:50

second goal. Red Zed landing stats, Merritt has how

2:52

many of those at least three. Two. Red

2:55

Zed landing lines for the self-employed. redzed.com. So

2:59

Nick Cox with a footy to get

3:01

Essen and off to a pull out to the northern

3:03

end. They got two. We've

3:06

played a minute and a half and Essen and

3:08

they got two. There's two straight 12s, Sydney yet

3:10

to score, triple M, Bunnings straight scoreboard. Oh look,

3:12

it's nothing to panic on, we should be the

3:14

swans at third. It's just, this is a free

3:16

start. You're kicking two goals in the first three

3:18

minutes of the game and as I said there's

3:20

been now a total of seven disposals in this

3:22

game and a total of five

3:24

kicks. So five kicks and two of those have been goals.

3:27

Not a bad start by the Bombers but

3:29

that's just the confidence it'll give the whole

3:31

side. Clearance going to Swans way, clever tap

3:33

by McInerney trying to get Lloyd involved but

3:35

behind. Sockers at the wards, Pattley

3:37

now, McInerney on the outside. Sockers at the

3:39

wards, Pattley. The Swans get their first inside

3:41

50 in a scrappy fashion. Perkins takes it

3:43

away, his kicks smothered. Brakes for

3:46

Durham and now the Bombers get it to centre.

3:48

We all pick Cox's hands. Oh right

3:50

went right through Cunningham and Harry is

3:52

down for the count right now. As the Swans

3:54

fans let you know what they thought about that.

3:57

A two metre play. Yeah he's

3:59

still down. to Chummy Ham and he's right

4:01

next to this free kick that's just been

4:03

awarded to Robon and Centering Brook outside so

4:05

umpire will just hold up play here for

4:07

just a moment. The something also going on

4:10

in our back there. Well that's where Peter

4:12

Wright is. Yeah. He's saying

4:14

that. Peter Wright's with

4:16

the right thing, he can test the football. He's taken

4:18

exception sir. It's on here. With a bit of a

4:21

good old playwater. Half-court, a bit of a push and

4:23

shove. Let him go. Well that's all you'll

4:25

have to do now. You've got to push up. We're

4:27

pretty much all but about eight players are in

4:29

this melee here at the moment. And because the

4:31

play is not going to continue, the umpire can't

4:33

throw the ball up to try and break it up.

4:36

Bob Dang Team Arts, Justin Edwards. Yeah, it's just made

4:38

the call for the stretcher here, Harry Cunningham in quite

4:40

a bad way. Still yet to get up. Stand

4:43

by for the triple M Harvey Norman replay as

4:45

that will be fascinating viewing. The swans have already

4:47

been judged during execution and they've got a pick.

4:49

Wright didn't like the way he went about it.

4:51

Oh no that doesn't look good on the replay.

4:53

Eastside, Eastside. Harry Cunningham high, eyes off the footy.

4:59

The mistake that Wright made was

5:01

he turned his body into a hip and shoulder

5:03

and didn't actually put his fist

5:05

up to contest the ball. It's pretty much he's

5:07

just gone straight at Cunningham then. On the blind

5:09

side. And this is going to be the result.

5:11

And this will be a couple of weeks. The

5:14

AFL have cracked down on this so much that

5:16

he will probably miss at least two weeks because

5:18

of this. The angle changes. The angle he gets

5:20

to Warner. Warner can run.

5:22

Driving ball half forward Logan McDonald-Mark. Forward

5:25

50. He can get the journey.

5:27

He stops and he props and he goes wide

5:29

as hell to Golden. And Golden marks. He'll

5:35

square the footy even further for a bit of

5:37

angle. And taking the

5:39

mark is Haywood and he'll settle and have

5:42

a shot from 40 out directly in front

5:44

round weekend. Just how hard Errol Gordon works.

5:46

He was in the half back line when

5:48

there was a scrimmage there. He saw his

5:50

team mates had won the ball. He just

5:53

sprinted forward all the way deep inside the

5:55

forward 50. I'll tell you what the swans

5:57

desperation there in their defensive half was fantastic.

6:00

So, Haidwood with the responsibility now. Can

6:03

he get Sydney's first goal? To

6:05

the Southern Andy. Fires! He

6:07

loves it. Goal up, fire does not

6:09

move. And

6:11

Sydney draw one back. They're 1-1-7. The

6:14

Bobbles are 2 straight 12. Triple M, Bunning

6:17

scoreboard. Bummer's tidy up. Lovely. Puck, handball from

6:19

Caldwell. Back to Dursbach. And now, Gresham does

6:21

the team think it was hustled to boot.

6:23

Langford has the wiper of ice. Oh, boy,

6:26

did he hit for one. What a finish.

6:29

A little check side from the boundary line.

6:31

And the Bombers have three straight 18s, a

6:33

lead by 11-1-1. They're

6:35

reviewing it, Cauchy. Hang on, Cauchy. They're reviewing it.

6:38

On the Triple M, Bunning's straight scoreboard, I reckon

6:40

it's a goal. This

6:42

is what people complained about last

6:44

week. There were so

6:47

many times the umpires reviewed, obvious decisions didn't

6:49

need to be reviewed. And this is just

6:51

another one. He's put to nowhere near the

6:53

ball. He's calling it. It could be touched.

6:56

It's a goal. It will be

6:58

a goal. An overall of the on-field

7:00

call at three straight and a lovely

7:02

finish from Langford. Dursma lends a hand

7:04

to Langford. Langford round the body for

7:06

his second. He's kicked it. Langford's

7:09

got two. Essendon

7:12

have got four. And

7:14

they are on fire early at the SCG.

7:16

They're four straight 24. Sydney

7:18

a 1-1-7. Draper,

7:20

good to see him back for

7:23

Bombers supporters as Haywood goes round

7:25

the body. Beautiful looking kick. Does it

7:27

bend enough? Does it bend enough? Yes,

7:30

it does. So

7:33

Haywood gets Sydney second against the

7:35

tide. They draw it back to

7:37

11.2-1-13 with

7:40

the ball straight 24. Is that

7:42

happening on a triple M, Bunning's straight scoreboard?

7:44

No, a couple of two M, Red's and

7:46

Sig Lakey hit that six smoke, swipes, Campbell.

7:48

Campbell's been really good, running off the

7:50

halfback. He's taking the game on, he's

7:52

at five. Four to Lloyd, Jack Warner

7:54

and Gouldin into the Bombers. Rajat, Kevin,

7:57

Cardiff has had five, A.J. Ceball. Merritt

8:00

also has five. They found McLean, he's

8:02

pretty much going at a goal of

8:04

game throughout his 56 game AFL career.

8:07

Only a slight angle here from Point

8:09

Blank range, drop punt on the way,

8:11

and drills it. One fan like it, and

8:14

they're back within one straight hit now, 3-3-21. They

8:17

found one four points, the bottom is 4-1-25

8:19

on the Triple M running straight scoreboard. They've

8:21

got a little error, Gordon now had kicks,

8:24

I suppose. It's interesting

8:26

that with what Peter

8:28

Wright did, that also that might

8:30

lift the Swans, but at the same

8:32

time... It's brought his game down

8:34

a little bit. He actually hasn't had a

8:36

kick yet. Perkins in our high whiskey kick,

8:38

right into the center circle is another big

8:40

contest. It breaks the Swans way, socket out

8:43

in front of McDonald by partly

8:45

who wants it back by hands, but McDonald straightens

8:47

up for a better option in the pocket.

8:49

Freaky has to go to Ahmadi, over

8:51

the shoulder in the back, take your pick, he's

8:53

got a kick shot from 40 out, doesn't he? He

8:56

possesses a hevel, Ahmadi, probably

8:58

better position here for him. Sometimes when he

9:01

gets a little bit nervous, he's actually directly

9:03

in front. So a better kick, and as

9:05

mentioned before, the calls when you've got McLean,

9:07

when you've got McDonald and Ahmadi in there,

9:09

it makes it really tough. Oh, he's coming

9:12

around the corner, Luffy, from 45 meters out.

9:15

This is, it'll take something special,

9:17

but he knew what he was

9:19

capable of. Joel Ahmadi gives the

9:21

Swans the lead with an around

9:23

the corner panda from 45 out,

9:26

like the first serve. 4-3,

9:28

27 to 4-1, 25 on the triple-end funding strength. Doorboard,

9:32

that's a beauty, it's Ahmadi parting all

9:34

of it. And this will be

9:36

the end of the first quarter, and the most, the

9:39

biggest talking point will be the big hit by Peter Ryan

9:41

or Harry Cunningham, who was summed out of the

9:43

game in the opening five minutes. This is

9:45

one, 4-4, 28 leading the bomber, 4-1, 25

9:47

by three points. For

9:51

Greenwater, and McDonald's, triple-end

9:53

rock footy. Shut

9:57

up, the booties on triple-end. This

10:00

is Triple M footies midi match

10:02

of the round. Now get ready for

10:04

the second. ...with

10:07

this midi guy, next to him on game three bar.

10:09

So Harry Cunningham returns to the scoring bench to lay

10:11

down after the score to him. He looks to be

10:13

eating quite clear. I was getting involved with the quarter

10:15

time huddle, so that's good news there for

10:17

him. I think about second turn, Brad Seymour.

10:20

For McDonald, the rim hot water, Triple M

10:22

rocks footy, Draper and Grundy, both holding each

10:24

other. And Draper will get

10:26

the free kick. He's had a big

10:28

say in this match thus far. Drives

10:30

it towards half forward. Blakey gets

10:32

a fist to it, up high, comes third

10:34

man up. Good kick as well, found a

10:37

big man in Draper. And

10:39

he was differently aligned, and it was

10:41

50 against Errol Goulden, that's the goal.

10:43

He's trying to get a 100 metre penalty here. Draper

10:46

as he dropped it back into Goulden, but

10:48

just 50 for now. And that takes him

10:50

all the way inside, attacking 50, pretty

10:52

late here. He wasn't going for the footy,

10:54

Goulden. I like it from the up high

10:56

level. But looking at it, he'd already jumped

10:58

before the ball got to Draper's hands, and

11:00

then Goulden actually backed off. He didn't try

11:03

and collect him or anything. It was just

11:05

a really soft touch in the

11:07

back. That's a soft 50 metre. That's a

11:09

big 50 metre. Have a look where he's

11:11

taken him. Triple M, super special comments. He'll

11:13

get out with the take measure later on.

11:15

Troy Laff as Draper was given maybe 60

11:17

metres here. At least he'll kick from about

11:20

50 to big man. He can give it

11:22

a wallop as well. Good looking job. Party's

11:25

rifled it through. That's how you make the most

11:27

of a 50 metre penalty. Outside

11:29

of D50, and he marks on the

11:31

half bank flank for the Bombers. Waiting

11:33

for teammates to storm down

11:35

the SCG, kicks to a swamp. Oh,

11:37

big hit again. Draper on Lloyd, who

11:39

took the mark in front. So the

11:41

big man throwing their way around. 50

11:43

has been paid here. Unblocked want to

11:45

get things rolling, but they're meant to

11:48

big. Last point, have the SCG. Pointed

11:50

this content, long plays on. But the

11:52

teammate up marked inside for 50 as

11:54

the Bombers switch stop. The

11:56

Bellington and Rambies went straight

11:58

off to Draper. You'll

12:00

kick from just inside 50 on a 45 degree

12:03

angle. Stand by for

12:05

the celebration if Patley can drill it.

12:07

He's stuck at home, the little pommer.

12:09

And it's a pretty subdued celebration. With

12:11

the swamp fans loving it. And they

12:13

link by nine points on the rim.

12:15

I take it you're a bit awful.

12:17

And you only get the kicks

12:20

off, but when it's on the run, sweetie, set shots,

12:22

he's already calm down. When it's on the run, that's

12:24

when he kicks off the wide seven kicks throughout

12:27

high fives. It was really good work there.

12:30

Firstly, reward to get in front of the pack, take

12:32

the mark, and cop the hit. And

12:34

while all the fommer started to illustrate, I'll

12:36

just pose you an up-ground and find some space

12:38

to kick into it. And Patley,

12:40

while he's coming off after he kicks the

12:42

goal, so maybe he's just an idea, he

12:45

will see. He's the only one that doesn't

12:47

go on well from here to go. Campbell

12:49

stays in the contest, pushes it inside, forward

12:51

50, kick-high and comes, Martin comes, Hippel comes.

12:53

The cavalry arrive and Cawlville should

12:55

escape. And kicks,

12:58

and it's helped by Rodney after the kick.

13:01

Langford, ah, Cawlville out of bounds, out of

13:03

bounds. Swamps fans up and on, but Langford's

13:05

left the team out, there's a goal coming

13:08

up the grip, and now the inquest

13:10

into how that was allowed to unfold.

13:13

Langford appears to mark it maybe out of

13:15

bounds, then he played on

13:17

certainly out of bounds, ran past the swan,

13:19

Sam Stringer all alone inside forward 50, and

13:22

the swamps fan out at all, helped him to 1.4 game. I

13:25

had a perfect yield on the, you're just

13:27

hearing the swamps start to imitate, that was

13:30

miles out of bounds on the floor. Yeah,

13:32

you think in 2024, and professionals, that

13:35

sort of stuff doesn't happen. Durham

13:38

puts it out in front of Gresham, he

13:40

had time to tidy up and go back

13:42

to Archie Perkins, shape for a handball, instead

13:44

comes back onto his right boot and finds

13:46

a good target, Peter Wright. Just outside the

13:48

arc, he can kick it from here on

13:50

a slight angle, he could kick it

13:52

from another 10 metres further out. It's

13:55

only his second mark tonight, Peter Wright,

13:57

he's only had the one kick in a few. Handles.

14:00

Hand to put the bombers back

14:02

in front. Saffita Peter. They

14:04

trail by two points right now. He

14:06

is the Boo Boy here at the SCG

14:09

tonight after what he did to Harry Cunningham

14:11

in the opening minutes. He'll

14:14

kick from 55. Drop punt. Looks

14:16

picture perfect off the Boo. Peter

14:18

right hits the scoreboard and has

14:20

the bombers on top. 7-4-46 for 6-6-42. James

14:25

Jordan, high board awards, 4-4. They

14:27

all fly. No one stays down.

14:29

Comes to the back. McInerney, can he get his boot

14:31

to it? I'm not sure if he did or did he? Yes he

14:34

did. McInerney went off the ground. I'm not sure if he's got it.

14:36

You think it's a Marty? Yeah, it's a Marty. Triple

14:39

M, Tony and Caravan scoreball. Yeah, they've given it to a Marty

14:41

here on the stat sheet, the Red Zen blending stat. Two centimetres

14:43

down. If you have a look at the Army Norman replay, I

14:45

think a Marty was actually trying to get out

14:48

of the way of the ball. Oh!

14:53

The Scorpion King just stole it. Oh Marty! It

14:56

wouldn't have stood for McInerney. It was touched. So

14:58

he needed to do the Scorpion King, R-La Rybley, but

15:00

Green for the Newcastle Gentiles. But

15:03

that's a big point. There

15:06

you go. So

15:09

he didn't do the Scorpion King, R-La Rybley,

15:11

but Green for the Newcastle Gentiles. There

15:15

you go. Just a few

15:17

years ago if you catch him on drift,

15:19

or Olivier Giroud, or Arsenal, he's done a

15:21

Scorpion kick off. I'm not sure it's ever

15:24

been seen before in the AFL's happen. And

15:26

Goldsley takes the mark 12 metres out directly

15:28

in front. You're not the only one that

15:30

thought that snapper. Look at the Harvey Norman

15:32

screen. John Longmire just absolutely was tearing shreds

15:34

off Nick Blakey there. He was trying to

15:37

make body contact. He was trying to get

15:39

in the space. In the end he touched

15:41

nobody and it was an uncontested mark of

15:43

Goldstein. This is one of

15:46

the talking goals going into this match.

15:48

They went in with two Ruckmans. Goldstein

15:50

makes no mistake. Esonin

15:52

back in front. C-Sawing match at

15:54

the SCG. They lead it

15:57

by four points from a triple-M Titanium

15:59

Caravan scoreboard. have you look now this is

16:01

the sixth league change already had and that's his

16:03

first goal was a bomber and he got the

16:05

treatment as well there's not much left on top

16:07

and it got a real rough up from many

16:09

a teammate inside board 50 after kicking his first

16:11

goal for Essendon 158 of his career just the

16:15

second game as a bomber. Outside of

16:17

the ground, Gould takes two steps, jams

16:19

it onto the chest of Packley and

16:23

Packley marks 45 out directly in front.

16:25

You know what's so good about Errol

16:27

Gould, it's not just his skill, it's

16:29

his decision-making. He literally had half a

16:31

second to decide where am I going

16:33

to kick this. He had a few

16:35

options and he's just drilled it to

16:37

Packley between two Essendon players and Packley

16:39

has not had to move. Pretty good

16:41

on the Harvey Norman replay too, lovely

16:43

save up to 23% on Samsung. 23

16:45

TV hurry only while stocks last

16:49

in store and online now at Harvey

16:51

Norman. So Packley a

16:54

chance, Brett and Butterstuff 45

16:56

out directly in front. He's

16:58

got it. Sydney

17:01

back in front, league change

17:03

number 6 for the quarter.

17:05

And Sydney lead it by into three

17:07

points triple M titanium caravan scoreboard. He had

17:09

6 for the quarter, 8 for the game

17:11

now already and the praises

17:13

are going to come for Errol Goulden over the years. His

17:16

work rate at training and when he plays

17:18

he's just non-stop. Players just don't work that

17:21

hard as what he does. He'll be in

17:23

a contest feed in the back pocket and

17:25

all of a sudden be in the forward

17:27

pocket getting the next ball. He just doesn't

17:29

stop and if he doesn't get 30% it

17:31

doesn't worry him he knows he's working hard.

17:33

Gouldstein just tries to flick it to the

17:36

back, Packley bursts through, it pushes it forward.

17:38

Siren sounds as the circuit breaker

17:40

for the first half. Packley keep

17:42

the goal through. And an entertaining

17:45

one it was. Sydney 8-9-57, they'll

17:47

take a slender four point lead

17:49

into the main break. Etc. 8-5-53

17:51

for green hot

17:54

water and McDonalds. Triple M

17:56

roll putting. Shut

17:59

up. This

18:02

is Triple M footies mini matchup

18:04

around. Now,

18:07

get rich in the third

18:09

quarter. A home side by the four points thanks to the Nettles

18:11

and Reemons. What a Triple

18:13

M rocks footie, we're under way in the

18:15

third quarter. Row bottom, snout over the footie,

18:17

working hard. Just flicked out to

18:20

Blakey. Blakey used the outside of his

18:22

boot, goes towards half order. Marty doesn't

18:25

let him down. Takes a good mark in front of Laverde.

18:27

He's got to come back off the mark he does now.

18:31

So a Marty, about 60, 65 from home. He

18:34

sets this one up, they'll jump, it's Logan

18:36

McDonald. Can he grab it, he did. Oh,

18:41

hell. Yeah, I'm not sure

18:43

about the defensive effort on that particular

18:45

occasion, but Logan McDonald's taken the mark,

18:47

30 out directly in front, round we

18:49

get. Just look at it, Mackay there

18:51

now. He's dirty with

18:53

himself because he actually let that go through his

18:55

hand and just a little bit of bodywork from

18:57

McDonald. Push Mackay underneath

18:59

the ball and, well there was a

19:02

hand in there from Mackay but it's still a mark, it's still

19:04

a mark. Mackay would want that one back

19:06

again, he's a big strong boy, said Mackay. So

19:09

Logan McDonald, a chance to get Sydney

19:11

off to a flying start in the second term.

19:15

35 out, directly in front, Gollum Pye

19:17

does not move. So stands

19:19

his squad at the Red weekend and celebrates.

19:23

It makes the Red-White Army reasonably

19:25

impressed and they lead it by

19:27

10 points. 9-9-63 the Swans, there's

19:29

an 8-5-53. Bergen

19:32

pushes his kick, still found the target

19:34

though, Peter Wright clamped it

19:36

about 30 from home, and here come the

19:38

boos for two metre feeder. You watch Mellican

19:41

there in that marking contest, he was too

19:43

worried about what was coming from behind him,

19:45

he kept looking around, he kept looking around.

19:48

Peter Wright eyes for the ball only, a really good contested

19:50

mark and his last shot for goal, there were a lot

19:53

of boos but it went straight through the middle and I

19:55

feel he's going to do the same thing here. Triple

19:57

M, see my super special comments on...

20:00

from Troy Love, and he silences

20:02

the Boo Boys here. Peter Wright, want

20:04

to get the margin back within one

20:06

straight kick, Ambles in, drop

20:08

putt on the way and he's steered

20:10

home another one. 9-6-60, the Bombers trail

20:13

by three points now on the Triple

20:15

M Beacon Trade scoreboard. This is a

20:17

big one to win now, it's gonna

20:19

go the way of Corey Warner, Chad

20:22

Warner, Goulden, 55 from

20:24

home, driving balls are

20:26

there-o! Stop it!

20:29

Oh, stop it! 55

20:33

out, driving balls to the

20:35

7 and Errol Goulden, and

20:38

Sydney strikes the margin to 8 points.

20:41

You've got it right now, but it's how

20:43

important that ball was to the Swans forward

20:45

plank. One way or the other,

20:47

whoever got it out first, in the end it was

20:49

the Swans, forced it forward, and Errol

20:51

Goulden, tentative enforcement, he's better at having

20:54

shots in the distance, and then rather

20:56

directly out in front, and that shows

20:58

you why. So they worked it out, Hayworth and

21:00

McLean, one more handle over the top, it would have been

21:02

interesting, but he saw a better option Swans. How

21:04

they put him, Jordan, that was team

21:07

being, sets it up beautifully. Overhand

21:09

mark taken by Putley in space,

21:11

it's about 20 from home. Another fast

21:13

movement there from the Swans, they've now

21:16

taken mark inside their forward 50-12. The

21:19

Bombers just 6. It's just

21:22

their accuracy of goals is what's hurting the Swans.

21:25

That's the difference between this game at the

21:27

moment, it's the Swans have missed opportunities at goals,

21:30

the Bombers haven't. We haven't seen a lot of set shots from

21:32

the Bombers that have missed. They've all been rushed,

21:34

whereas the Swans have missed a lot of

21:36

set shots. Pappley's already kicked 2, lining up

21:39

for his third set shot. That's through another

21:41

one, all three of these goals have been

21:43

set shots tonight, but extends the

21:45

Swans margin out to their biggest of the

21:47

ball game. 11-12-78 to 9-8-62, the Bombers there,

21:49

6 minutes remaining. In

21:53

the third term on the Triple E, the group's score to

21:55

Huey, find his 2-be-20. Had

22:00

a great game from Tom Hadley. He's one

22:03

of the highest position getters for the swine.

22:05

He's had 20 slopes, he's three goals. He

22:07

does look exhausted though, Lucky. Why does he have

22:09

to come on here? He's got to get a

22:11

rest at the top stage. Caldwell left it behind,

22:13

Milligan is in the way. Nick Martin coming up

22:15

from half back, pushes it back to Springer. Springer

22:18

round the body! Bending, bending,

22:20

it's good! Springer

22:22

kicks one. Draws

22:24

the margin back to 11 points and

22:27

the shadows are three-quarter time. The bombers

22:29

were about to take it out of

22:31

there, but Port will start Archie Perkins

22:33

by McInerney. And the

22:35

umpire stands on him and has gone the

22:38

other way for a dank grip. Slinging no

22:40

tackle. We're having a

22:42

look on the triple-M Harvey Norman replay and

22:44

it does look a little dangerous, but Perkins

22:46

was... Oh,

22:48

my goodness. What is happening to this

22:50

game? Picks up McInerney for his second

22:53

involvement in the chain. Chips to Blakey,

22:55

who can go back and take the steps and

22:57

that's what he thought about playing on. He

22:59

nearly stuffed the helpless ones. It looked so good

23:02

up until that pass. I'm just

23:04

going to show him ahead of that tackle. That

23:07

is a perfect tackle from McInerney in the center

23:09

of the ground. He tackled his

23:11

arm, he didn't sleeve to the ground, it was

23:13

just the movement. It gets to a point of

23:15

what is happening in this game of football now.

23:17

He can't tackle like that. Anyway,

23:19

now we've got Nick Blakey having a shot for goal. Controversial

23:22

triple-M CBUS Super Special Comments

23:24

from Troy Laughs. Blakey lines up his first

23:27

shot of the season. How's it look off

23:29

the boot? It is picture-pounding

23:31

from the leaping lizards. And

23:35

the Plonk then their lead. 12-13,

23:37

85-10, 8-68. Ball

23:41

gets to the back, Juleson. Can he get his

23:43

boot too and he can? It's a mark

23:45

for McLean. A

23:48

siren sound. The

23:50

margin stands at 17 before the McLean, King. This

23:54

will hurt Essa then late, late

23:56

in the turn. War, biggest margin

23:58

of the game. He kicks this

24:00

and he's going back a long, long

24:03

way. Even when Errol Gould is off

24:05

balance, getting tackled, he still finds a

24:07

target. He just put it to a

24:09

dangerous spot, didn't he? Sydney win the

24:11

contest, the clearance from the throw-in quickly

24:13

on the Gould. His boot puts him

24:15

to a dangerous spot. So

24:18

McLean now with a footie. A

24:20

chance to set Sydney on a 23-point

24:22

lead into three-quarter

24:25

time. Directly

24:27

in front, punches the air

24:29

to Tatum McLean. And

24:31

they take a... For

24:42

rain, hot water and McDonald's. Triple M

24:44

rock footie. Shut

24:47

up. The bodies of Triple M. This

24:50

is Triple M footie, mini-master of the

24:53

round. Now, getting ready for

24:55

the four-quarter. McDonald's

24:57

and remote water. Another whoever rocks footie. And

24:59

they're going to get back to back with

25:01

Sydney. The

25:04

Korean zip at the end of this one. They get a free

25:06

kick out of the middle. It'll go

25:08

to Chad Warner. He looks up and drops

25:11

it on the chest of semi-wicks. And

25:14

the boys run for him. He's got either

25:16

option. It could be Chad Warner or it

25:18

could be Golden. Warner gives it to Golden.

25:20

Golden on his left side, a little chipping

25:22

ball. He wants Grunty, down low in the

25:24

grass, the Haywood. Haywood will bend it

25:26

round. Sydney with the fast start.

25:30

Just what the doctor ordered. As

25:33

they stand on the board at the northern

25:35

end, Sydney strikes the margin to 29

25:37

points, 97 to 68. I

25:40

don't know about you. If you look at

25:42

Brody Grunty, 202 centimetres, sprint

25:45

it out, pick the ball fence down

25:47

and pick the ball up in one

25:50

swoop and handball it off to

25:52

Haywood. That was fantastic from the big man, Brody

25:54

Grunty, to set that up. 31

25:57

seconds that took. Merrick stills it off. He pushes

25:59

it forward. McCartan will have to go back

26:01

and get rid of it. Drank Dackle holding the

26:03

footy. It'll be

26:05

a free kick to Merritt. Only

26:08

10, 12 metres out, acute angle,

26:10

but that shouldn't worry him. That's Paul from Tommy

26:12

McCartan because he had Louis Mellican standing in the

26:14

goals square by himself, pulling for the handball, and

26:16

he decided to try and take on the player.

26:18

And you just don't do that, that close to

26:20

the goals. So Merritt a

26:22

chance to draw it back to 24 points.

26:27

Steps out, round the body, a man of

26:29

his skill, makes short work of

26:31

that. Essendon core one back. 24

26:34

points to the margin. A lot of the supporters have been

26:36

sitting here going, ah, we've got this for the Swans, but

26:39

last year we saw the Bombers kick five of

26:41

the last six goals to only just miss

26:43

out on the win. And as

26:45

I said before the game, they've had so many

26:47

tight games here, or so many

26:50

tight games between the two clubs. The last seven have

26:52

been under 10 points, only one

26:54

game in the last eight. And the interesting thing

26:56

though, the Swans have only lost once here to

26:59

Essendon in their last 10 games. Over

27:02

the last 12 years they've played 17 games, Swans

27:04

13-4. Spits

27:07

out to James Jordan, high ball, Merritt

27:09

waits down, Merritt round the body with

27:11

his left! Oh, that's

27:13

a magical goal! Merritt

27:16

went round the body. He

27:18

only needs half a yard. And

27:21

that was terrific. His second for the term. And

27:24

they claw another one back. Margin

27:26

18 points, Essendon 81, Sydney 99

27:28

on the Triple M Titanium Caravan

27:30

scoreboard. We just see it happen

27:32

so often. The Swans have had all

27:34

the play in their forward half. They've had

27:37

shots at goal, opportunities to create shots at

27:39

goal, and they've missed it. And

27:41

all of a sudden the first time it goes down

27:43

in Essendon forward 50, bit of a scrimmage in Merritt.

27:45

Merritt had a fantastic game today. He's had 27 disposals

27:48

and kicked a couple of goals. Mark

28:00

in the end Gresham, he was lucky. McCartan

28:03

nearly got there to affect the spoil in

28:05

Gresham Mark. 40 from home

28:07

here. A chance to make the margin back

28:09

to just 11 points if he

28:12

kicks truly here. A little bit of inexperience there

28:14

from Mac and Ernie. At

28:16

this time of the game, you don't need to try and take

28:18

someone in the middle of the ground, just get it going forward.

28:21

Because the mistake has now caused an

28:23

opportunity for the Bombers to bring

28:25

the margin back to 11 points. The

28:28

opening goal of the game in the first minute,

28:30

lining up for goal number three here,

28:32

the former site. He's

28:34

almost directly in front, comes inside the arc,

28:36

kicks from 48 meters out, gives it everything

28:38

the little man, he likes it off the

28:40

boot and not looking far. It's

28:43

tightening up and the SCG big time here,

28:45

the Bombers 13-10-88, travels home 14-15-99 by 11

28:47

points. Mac

28:52

and Ernie taking his time, chips into space.

28:55

Gordon's fucked up here and taken the mark,

28:57

he's done with it three times with the

28:59

Atchardville effect, but he'll go back

29:01

and take the set shot here. Terrific kick, Mac and

29:03

Ernie. And again, just Errol

29:05

Gordon's work rate. He just ran in hard. Is

29:08

he gonna kick this around the corner? No, I

29:10

thought he was marking it to kick around the

29:12

corner, but yeah, Errol Gordon's ran center of the

29:14

ground, saw a little bit of space, ran into

29:16

it, and spot on kick from

29:18

Mac and Ernie. Could this move Luffy's needle

29:21

if he takes them past the tongue

29:23

of the SCG? Errol Gordon, there are

29:25

99 the Swans. He's

29:27

one of the best players in the Cup.

29:29

Errol Gordon, left foot shot on the way.

29:31

Oh, mark it down for Errol. And

29:35

he's got the celebration there against European

29:37

soccer. I reckon, because he loves his

29:39

Liverpool, says Errol Gordon. And

29:42

he made it 15-15-105 to 13-10-88. Candy

29:47

margin now with nine minutes of game

29:49

time remaining on the triple M titanium

29:52

caravan. And in the end

29:54

it breaks to Haney, fires a handball right

29:56

across the face of the square towards Warner.

29:58

He does well against Marta. Bill

30:00

going here, ball to be one inside,

30:03

4-50 now, Warner, Lutzer's onto

30:05

it, left foot club it, there it is,

30:07

and Chad Warner puts the seal

30:09

on Pete. He's missed a few

30:12

tonight, but he nails this one as

30:14

the swap, 7-7 goal, 17-17, 1-1-9, and then 14-11, 95 with 3 minutes to

30:16

go, they lead by 4 goals on

30:24

the triple M Titanium Paramount score. I

30:26

reckon there was a big star relief went across

30:29

the whole crowd there because too many times

30:31

these people have seen the Swans either blow leads

30:33

like this or make it too tight, with Chad

30:35

Warner coming in kicking a nice snag there,

30:37

I think it's just about out of question now

30:39

for the Swans. High scoring

30:42

match, we've had over 200 points

30:44

scored. Today's AFL, we don't see

30:46

it too often when teams get

30:48

such high scores, particularly if they

30:51

kick another goal, for two teams

30:53

to kick 100 points each, that

30:55

is very rare. Grundy Waits underneath

30:57

it, can't take the mark, Pavley

30:59

front and square, James Jordan rides

31:01

shotgun with him, a little low

31:03

board award score, he's kicked the

31:05

beauty! Oh, James Jordan!

31:07

That'll be replayed on

31:09

Monday, they come from everywhere

31:12

to congratulate him, but

31:14

he was almost in row 3 when he let

31:16

fly on the right shoe, and

31:18

it went skimming off the grass and straight through.

31:22

30 points to the margin now, as we

31:24

count down a minute and change in the final turn. Triple

31:26

M's Nitatian score order, 18-17-125 Sydney, incident 14-11-95. First

31:33

goal on the red and white for James Jordan,

31:35

well done, that's why everyone's gone over to him.

31:38

Grundy Waits in the first half, I think he was well

31:40

beaten in the racket, he wasn't getting a lot of balls.

31:44

In the second half he's really turned it

31:46

around, he's had 19 hit

31:48

outs and he's had 10 disposes himself. So

31:50

after being well beaten by both Draper and

31:53

Goldstein, Grundy's turn around has been nice. Set

31:55

Upon by Hayward, ball spills on the outside, the

31:58

water looking for forward, Now

32:16

I'm hoping eleven lot a lot of
