FORWARD LINE

Marcus Bontempelli

Arguably the player of the round. The Bulldogs skipper led by example and was the difference maker between the Dogs and Eagles.

In what was a heated battle in the heart of the ground, Bontempelli stole the show on his way to collecting 30 touches and three goals.

Taylor Walker

The big Texan is back.

Leading the Coleman Medal race after the opening two rounds with a bag of six goals against the Swans in what was a stunning performance from the former captain.

His pressure and eye for goal were a deadly combination on Saturday, but unfortunately was unable to come away with the four points.

Christian Petracca

The Demons' bull monstered his way to 30 touches for the night, but will be ruing his missed chances after booting 0.3.

Nevertheless, his impact in the middle and involvement when moving forward had St Kilda's defenders with their backs to the wall all night.

Errol Gulden

Hard to think of a more impressive opening two matches of an AFL career.

Another star from the Swans' Academy, Gulden might just be the pick of the bunch should his two matches be a sign of what's in store for his future.

22 touches, seven marks and a goal has Gulden back in the best and in line for six Brownlow votes from his first two games.

Mitch Georgiades

A late inclusion into Port's 22, Georgiades has now mounted pressure on fellow forward Todd Marshall after booting four goals against the Bombers and cementing his place in Ken Hinkley's side for another week.

Georgiades and Charlie Dixon were a dominant duo on Saturday, with the former just edging out his teammate for a place in our side.

Isaac Heeney

The third Swans Academy graduate to make our Team of the Round this week.

Heeney booted three goals from his 14 possessions and was a constant threat on goal for Sydney as the Crows had little to answer in return.

With Buddy's return and the immediate impact Logan McDonald is having, this Swans forward line is looking scary and Heeney looks to be thriving in it.
