That was a much better quarter from the Swans, who after kicking just the one goal in the first term, put through six in the second to take a 7-point lead into half-time.
It was soured, however, by both Dane Rampe (subbed off) and Tom Papley going down injured. Rampe sat on the bench with ice on his right calf, while Papley couldn’t put any weight on his leg and had to be carried off.
Cam Rayner is having a great game for the Lions, with 12 possessions, four of those contested, three score involvements and a goal. But his counterpart for the Swans, Errol Gulden, really sparked into gear in the second quarter and sits on 14 touches, eight of those in the second term, one goal and four score involvements.
