In Jakarta I run a start up company with 20 employees.

It is a good challenge and I work with a bunch of eager locals. They are always coming up with new strategy suggestions. One of my mantras back at them is no strategy is any good unless you can execute and more often than not their ideas are not executable. You could say the same thing about the Dees at the moment. Our attacking brand of footy resulting in large number of inside 50s means nothing if it only results in 10.18. You aren’t going to win too many games with that type of conversion let alone against a team like the Swans.

I watched the game with 2 mad Swans fans. With their mob having 2 out of the game and the Dees kicking the first in the second they both had given up on their boys. 6 goals in 16 minutes certainly changed their tune. A late fight back in the last gave us a little bit of hope but at the end of the day it was just more heartbreak as we lost another close one and our finals hopes now hang on tenterhooks.

Brayshaw again was great with 25 touches and 6 clearances, Tyson probably played his best game of the year, Harmes is showing some great form of late, Oliver had plenty of it as usual and Salem was important in another disappointing result.

It certainly isn’t an understatement that this weeks’ game is big. Our form over in the West has been fantastic recently with a win last year and a loss by a goal the previous year. I am picking us to rise the occasion….It’s about time we did!!
