Oh, they're very good :p
They were a little unsteady in the opening few matches of the season, but recently have shown some signs of regaining form and some fluency in their game.

ummmm...lets see, the Western Bulldogs appear usntoppable atm, but i think theyre overrated and should crumble soon. They have no real quality talls and rely on their migit forward line.

Boy, that last game from the Swans against the Demons was a cracker! 91-91 Demons come up with the ball take a goal with 38 secs left. 97-91. The swans rush into attack and the ball goes to Nick Davies (as I recall), 40 meters from directly in front with about 18 secs left kicks and misses!!! 97-92!

But the Swans are still in trouble after a shocker start to the season, Leo Barry has been not as good as last year at all.

In other news, Port Adelaide will have quite a few players going to the tribunal for being absolute idiots!

I think they are under-rated. They were very poor last season and look what they have done in the off season. There team is starting to really take big wins and may even finish as minor-premiers.

Speaking of Essendon, they are in big trouble without Lloyd. ;)

Oi, I said 'some' signs, I'm not over-confident :p
Most aspects have been pretty terrible, but there's hope!

Don't worry the Swans will take Sydney by storm again this year. How come the mighty big state doesn't have more than 1 team? Is it like the NRL and Melbourne?

Don't think it's that popular there and maybe they don't want to use anymore money on new teams. They'd have to introduce a bye too.

Just "good". He kicked 6 goals against the Swans in 1 quarter. He practically hits it dead straight everytime.

Yes, hes a superb kick, but hes very inconsistant when it comes to performance. He looks for Free-kicks far to much which im not a fan of.... I wanna see my team earn the ball, not get it given to them.


@Aussie1st: In the near there will be a second team in both NSW and Queensland since AFL is growing rapidly. The reason that theres no 'second" NRL team here is no-one gives a stuff about NRL at all down here, and that includes SA, WA and tassie........

NRL basically isnt growing at all to be honest. Its a shame, the only thing i like about NRL is your "footy" show (why the hell do they call it footy?)
