Preview 2024 Round 15 GWS Vs Sydney

[Heeney2Franklin]

We keep getting lucky breaks with opposition players missing lol

 

[kickthething]

Wasn’t but he always turns into prime SJ against us and it’s annoying

Not last time out…

That’s a real kick in the nuts for GWS’s chances this week.

the very definition of a ball tearer

Ugh cant stop cringing at that injury shudders

 

[Mister B]

Yeah..... I mean an accidental elbow to the nuts from one of the little tackers is enough to want to make you hurl, I can't (and don't want to) imagine what a rupture would feel like in terms of pain. Yuck.

 

[MF]

Not an injury I enjoyed reading about. Ouch.

Hope he recovers quickly

 

[Colonial]

Or may I even be so bold as to say... Toy Story 3?

Or is that reserved for when we beat GWS in the GF?

Gotta beat us in a final first
I jest I jest.
Hopefully a great game that advertises that NSW can put on a footy show as good as any traditional state.

Would be great if Swans and GWS beat Carlton and Pies in respective prelims. Imagine the outcry.

For mine Fox in IS our best side.
The question is who is the best sub at the moment out of Campbell, Roberts or Mitchell. IMO Roberts needs a rest, Campbell is playing with a lack of confidence and Mitchell is coming off a BOG against the VFL leaders.

Mitchell is terminally slow and was one of the big reasons we lost to Richmond. Most people here gave him a pass, but I thought he had a horrific debut. I wouldn’t trust him in AFL just yet even as a sub.

I don’t think Campbell has been that bad and Roberts hasn’t played a whole lot lately. I think Fox comes back in and Campbell/Roberts the sub (I’d go with Campbell). There’s really no need to mess with a winning combination.

With all due respect, this might actually be the most hyperbolic thing I've seen on here.

We laid 31 Rowbottom-less tackles in an entire match of footy but the outside mid playing his first game was a major reason we lost?

Well leaving out Wicks didn’t help there mind you at this stage we can only chuckle that it’s the only match we’ve lost

A major reason. He spent most of the first half getting chased down from behind, being left in the dust whenever he tried to chase anyone down, and losing foot races against such speedsters as Kamdyn bloody McIntosh. That was only the first half. In the second, he went completely unsighted and didn’t touch the ball. If Wicks played instead of him, we probably win by a goal or so.

I'm not saying he had a great or even a good debut. I thought he was a passenger, but if you're losing a game like that, it's not because of your bottom six players. We've actually had a passenger or two in most of our games this year, including some of our best wins. It hasn't made a difference in those games, and Mitchell being one in that game didn't make a difference then.

I think saying Mitchell was a major reason we lost is giving a lot of our much better players an out for the blame for their worst performances for the year, and shifting it onto the youngest and least experienced kid out there. Bit unfair IMO, but to each their own.

I feel Fox might come into the starting team to give us another defender who can play taller.

Glad someone agrees with me!

We're not 100% sure... but it's likely

Just wondering - respectfully - what is the vibe here re: the future of Luke Parker ?

Will he get back into the team this year ? Is he still a part of your midfield ?

Some peeps on the Saints board are keen on him. I’ll show myself out if I have crossed the line …..

I think we morally need to get him to 300 games. All bets off after that

I've got one for you then. Dislocated hip, popped back in under sedation, wake up in searing pain finding your nut was in the socket at the time. Dislocate and relocate to fix. Not my experience but its a story a nurse once told me

Think Rampe going down and no Cunningham were bigger reasons as to why we lost to Richmond

 

[Donza]

Still haven't changed the title I see...

IMO this will be the tightest test (pardon the pun) of the year for the swans.
