Newton grabs it out of the congestion and has a quick shot at goal, but he misses to the left hand side from 50. (Q1 1:56)
Pyke has the first goal of the night. Sydney worked it forward through interplay between Rohan and the Canadian, allowing Myke to get out the back and goal from 35! (Q1 4:56)
Vandenberg goes wide with a bouncing pass to Howe who centres to the first gamer in Stretch. From 35 on the flank, Billy has his first goal on the grand stage! (Q1 11:04)
McVeigh bullets in a pass to Mitchell who in turn goes long to the goal square. It gets to the goal line and Tippett soccers it home amongst the myriad of legs! (Q1 12:07)
Tippett nails the major from 35 on the flank, but Lynden claims he touched it off the mark. So the review is in process but it hasn’t been paid. (Q1 16:11)
Long bomb in and Tippett takes the strong mark opposed to Spencer in the marking contest. From 45 out on the slight angle, Kurt has no issue, nailing his third! (Q1 22:40)

Hannebery flicks it out wide to Jetta, who settles and slams it across the body from 50 out. Interesting choice of kick, but it’s sweetly hit to maximum effect! (Q2 19:28)
Dawes marks on the hard lead, but in the resulting set shot from outside 50 on the flank, Chris can only produce a minor score. (Q2 20:12)
The Swans go coast to coast down the middle and Heeney gets on the end of the play, but his quick shot bounces to the wrong side. (Q2 20:40)
The Swans work it by hands and eventually they find the preferred shot at goal, with Tippett finding Kennedy who lets fly from 30 directly in front. Another major for the Swans! (Q2 21:58)
Lumumba leaves without the ball and Kennedy picks it up, but his attempted shot misses to the far side from 30 on the sharp angle. (Q2 22:44)
Tyson provides a lacklustre tackle on Kennedy, who simply breaks through with ease, runs to 45 and slams it home! Dismal way to start the second half for the Dees.
(Q3 1:17)

Parker with the clearance to Jack, off to Tippett who has another major from 25 on the slight! Very quick reply from the Swans! (Q3 5:35)

McVeigh to McGlynn to Rohan all by foot, and Gary will line up 35 metres out on the slight angle after marking ahead of Toumpas. He trots in and hooks it to the near side. (Q3 13:48)
Vandenberg beats Laidler in the fifty-fifty contest, but his pressured shot at goal from the top of the square hits the post. (Q3 16:15)
McVeigh slices in a bullet pass to McGlynn who in turn finds Parker with a chipped pass. That was poor by the Demons allowing Luke to take that grab. He goals from 30! (Q3 19:08)
Vandenberg goes long and Kennedy-Harris out bodies his opponent to take a strong mark. Deep in the pocket, Jay misses poorly to the near side with a drop punt. (Q3 24:34)
Newton roves it off the long bomb and he grabs the ball at speed. He quickly executes the major with class, 35 metres out on the slight angle! (Q3 28:31)
Hogan takes the ripping one handed mark opposed to Rampe in the classic one on one. 35 out on the slight angle, Jesse whacks it through the middle! (Q3 28:49)

Garlett has his second of the night! He got front and centre of the pack, read it well off hands and snapped truly from 35 directly in front! (Q4 21:31)
