I noticed that Josh Kennedy kicked 3 goals for the toast this arvo, with the third being around the 13 minute mark of the last quarter.
5 minutes later he gets one home for the swans to put them 50 points up.
I know the fans are jumping ship at a rapid rate but have we ever seen a player jump ship mid game before?

I watched enough moments of the Eagles Vs Sydney game to realise that the Eagles DO have a player who has that X-factor whenever he is near the ball. A real drawcard player that entertains the viewers because he only has to do a few things to significantly change the course of play during a game.
His name is Matthew Spangher. Please keep picking him so I can keep on laughing. I'm definitely a convert and will be watching for more of his work.
I couldn't decide today which was the funniest in the glimpses I watched. Top three: The look away handball in defence that went straight to a Sydney player & goal, getting knocked over in a one-on-one contest for the ball by a Sydney player half his size - goal, and the attempted don't argue manouevre that he instigated by running towards the Sydney player - holding the ball.
A thread a while back suggested ways in which "Spangher" could be used as as a noun, verb, adjective. Can't find it so I'll add:
"He's spanghered it". "Spangher-like". "The West Coast Spanghers."

Interesting Nicky-Nacky-Noo-Ey stat for all those media types who SCREEEAM whenever the mop moves anywhere near the ball.
In 55 per cent of the game time Nicki-Nacky-Noo-Ey had 2 kicks, 3 handballs, no marks, 14 hitouts and 7 tackles.
By comparison Sydney's Shane Mumford, in 43 per cent of the game time, had 2 kicks, 12 handballs, no marks, 18 hitouts and no tackles.
Those figures wouldn't make Nicky-Nacky-Noo-Ey a 'dominant' ruckman would they?
... er, no.
