Game Day 2024 Round 21 Port Adelaide v. Swans 3rd August @ Adelaide Oval 7:30 PM

[Nteshy]

I think even Horse is shocked, probably expected a Geelong 2022 end of year run with a fit and firing Mills and Parker, team getting even better but instead it is hilariously sad the season is trending in the other direction.

Reeks of complacency, any lack of foresight.

But where is the effort. It used to be out trade mark but that is long gone.

Want to see some fight in the second half. Show some pride

Francis isn't the issue, no back line would survive with the easy it's coming in.

All in the midfield. Too lazy

 

[The King!]

Well the positives


That red looks nice under lights

 

[ashep]

This is shattering

 

[The King!]

Would be an epic comeback

Absolute embarrassment by the players and coaching staff. This was their response to their worst performance of the year, dish up an even weaker one. Might as well throw the magnets around in the 2nd half.
Somehow we'll still be top of the ladder, but it would be a miracle if we did anything from here. Getting too close to finals I guess, shown our true colours.

Yep, also can't win a clean clearance to save their lives. It has been a feature of Longmire's game his entire tenure as coach. He just doesn't care that much about winning clearances.

 

[kangle4]

We’re the laughingstock of the league right now.

 

[GoulburnSwan]

I have to say I’m happy for ken Hinkley, he seems like a good bloke.

 

[TheMase]

Might as well give Roberts a go in the middle

 

[The King!]

It just makes you feel humiliated

 

[kickthething]

we have always been a team that wilts under heavy pressure, back to 2013 onwards tams have shown it. No grit no balls this is insipid and we have seen it before. I think this is a performance that suggests Horse is not the coach for we need

 

[Aardvark]

What a stinking pile of detritus!

2022 GF v Geelong - 81 points
2023 Geelong at Kardinia - 93 points

This kind of performance isn’t even a rarity anymore.

I think id feel worse if we did win after serving up that first half tbh

 

[Superstar swan]

Sack horse

 

[Dubai Quacker]

Scapegoating Corey by subbing him off was gutless coaching & soul destroying for the young bloke.

Pathetic.

 

[swanssince2002]

LOL it would be the greatest comeback of all time if we did pull it off, not happening

 

[dosser]

Well, I've got nothing.

 

[Caj]

Stuck out to half time.

Annnddd done.

Worst performance from a Swans team.I have ever seen.

Agreed I’ve followed since the early 80s and this is easily the worst performance I’ve ever seen

Yep for him to still have such a lethal kryptonite after being at the helm so long - that's affected a completely different squad of players to what it did a decade ago - is evidence enough that he isn't the answer. If he hasn't figured it out in over a decade, he's not going to.

 

[WillHayward]

ffs stop the fight

DNA test required.

It's only half time here, well on track to blow those results out of the water.

The more I think about, subbing Corey Warner is just so stupid.. less run because of it, and we are getting smashed anyway.. give the kid a run and sub off a tall that’s having no impact..

Corey Warner was literally giving us nothing, much like last week. He was running around to no effect and his defensive efforts were about as hard as his brother’s. He is not AFL level. At least Ladhams can theoretically get you a contested mark as well as help out in the ruck.
