Coming up Rosas as Swans Hold Off Demons at SCG

Malcolm Rosas became only the fifth Sydney player in 10 years to kick seven goals as the Swans improved to 6-1.

  • On Saturday, Sydney recruit Malcolm Rosas kicked a career-best seven goals, leading the Swans to a 131–114 victory over the Melbourne Demons at the SCG.
  • Rosas moved to Sydney from the Gold Coast Suns last year in a trade involving picks 51 and 69, providing the Swans with a dynamic forward option overlooked amid fanfare over Charlie Curnow.
  • In front of 40,673 fans, former Demons ruck Brodie Grundy marked his 250th game with a match-high 44 hit-outs, helping the Swans improve to 6-1.
  • Melbourne dropped to sixth after the loss and a hamstring injury to leading goalkicker Brody Mihocek, though coach Steven King praised the team's fighting spirit.
  • Swans coach Dean Cox emphasized collective scoring, saying "That's my number one focus, isn't to rely on one person," despite Rosas' beneficial impact on the forward line.
