It's fair to say I was up and about come 6pm Saturday night after another ridiculous, but not out of the ordinary, Swans comeback v the Giants.
GWS totally stifled the Swans for the entire first half, dominating all the major stat categories that win finals - clearance, contested possession and inside 50's - resulting in the leagues highest scoring team (97per game so let's say 49 per half) to 22pts, 6mins to half time.
Enter Isaac Heeney.
He had 8 possessions, 4 contested, 2 clearances and a goal in the term including the final goal after a diving 1 handed mark at the 28min mark.
The score was still ordinary but we, and I mean Isaac, had stolen a good chunk of momentum back from that mark and goal.
In the 3rd quarter it was all Heeney again for Sydney, taking mark of the year and goaling just minutes later, posting 12 possessions, 8 contested, 2 clearances and another goal in that quarter but the margin was still 21pts and for all the good Heeny did, we didn't close the margin by even 1pt!
Enter the 4th quarter, Warner, Gulden, Papley, Florent and Campbell!
Follow this Twitter thread (can't do the X thing!) from the start of the 4th to the end of it!
