Refreshing to see the Swans holding their players accountable. What happened was well below the expected conduct for role models. Standards need to mean something. Women deserve respect and safety - that's baseline.

As a woman who loves AFL, I feel palpable despair. Why is our safety not valued as much as the success of the men?
By Jill StarkCommentary around the Sydney Swans case has made it painfully clear that women’s safety is not valued as highly as the sporting success of its male stars

@jonathantrott I think the Swannies will *probably* win, especially with both of the Tobies now out with injuries.
It really has been that kind of year for the Giants, where they lost to West Coast and Essendon. And yet managed to beat four of the top six (Fremantle, Brisbane, Hawthorn, and Melbourne).
So it's not beyond the realms of possibility.
How it's tended to happen is the Giants are within three or four goals at halftime (or three quarter time), and then pile on a bunch of goals in a quarter.
Anyways, we'll soon see!

Fun back-and-forth game between the Sydney Swans and the Western Bulldogs. I haven't had many chances to watch these two teams this year thanks to international broadcast schedules—this is may be only the second Bulldogs game I've seen this year—but they're putting on a heck of a show!
