IT was no Buddy no worries for the Swans who made light work of the Brisbane Lions at the Gabba thrashing them by 79 points.
Adam Goodes proved to be the perfect substitute for the star forward kicking three goals and moving beautifully in his first full game since round 13 last year.
In game number 333 the Swans champion looks like he will have big say in the shape of Sydney's season which is looking a lot better than it did a month ago.
The win moved the Swans into the top eight for the first time this year and also gave them three wins in a row to lift their record to 4-3.

The only concern for the red and whites was a hamstring injury to Mike Pyke who will miss the match against the Hawks at the very least.

Pyke was substituted late in the second quarter leaving Tom Derickx to carry the ruck duties for the entire second half, a job he did very well.
Josh Kennedy was the Swans best and produced another outstanding display in the midfield with 34 disposals including two goals.

Kieren Jack enjoyed a role as a permanent forward kicking two goals as did his younger brother Brandon who came on as a substitute just before half time.
Luke Parker continued his good form this year as did Rhyce Shaw who celebrated his 200th game with a goal. The major was just his third in the last three years and the 43rd of his career.
Dan Hannebery and Jake Lloyd performed well as did Nick Malceski who battled on bravely with a corked thigh he picked up in the second quarter. The loss of Pyke early forced him to stay on the.

Any advantage the Lions had with Franklin's absence was cancelled out when they lost champion forward Jonathon Brown.
Goodes got Sydney off to a flying start with two goals in as many minutes and Jack added a third. The Swans dominated general play but failed to convert their possession and territorial advantage into scores. Sydney had nine scoring shots to two but could only manage a 12 point break at the first change, with Pyke, Kennedy and Jack all missing set shots for goal.

There was one man they couldn't stop and that was Kennedy who had a massive quarter winning 12 disposals and kicking a 50 metre bomb to push Sydney's lead out to 26 points late in the term. That should have been the half time margin but a shocking kick across goal from Daniel Merrett in the last 30 seconds gifted Jarrad McVeigh a goal to make the difference 33 points at the half.
It was all one way traffic in the second half as the Swans outscored the Lions 10 goals to two.
