Mate who knows when the swans will lose again, let me swing my dick around in here!!!!!

 

[Righteo]

Regardless of the free kick count, I still think Freo got the rub of the green. Holding the ball basically didn't exist for you.

Granted. Good win for the Chad-snatchers. Your Grand Final win.

holy **** the level of salt

You're still top of the ladder there's no need to be this upset bro lmao

Swans supporters still call for offside and knock on. Fair weather supporters at best

Understandable I suppose. Don't know how some other supporter groups keep turning up to watch the same shit show week after week year after year. Especially when you consider the losing is just purely boring as bat shit.

Well I know you'll probably never experience this cause you're a Freo supporter (jks), but the more your team wins the higher your expectations are and the more of a crybaby you get when you lose because we feel entitled to win. In that losing patch of 2019~2020, I remember I was more relaxed and even-handed than I've ever been.

Great game. Both sides hard at it, umpires were pretty much rolling D20s to give out free kicks, both benefitted and were shafted in relatively even measure. Both sides missed some sitters, and also played some scintillating football. Don't think Sydney are losing much sleep at 13-2 after a 1 point loss to a finals sides.

I will say that if we meet you in finals, I hope it's at the SCG. It suits our clearance/pressure game (that 5m each way makes a difference). I feel the Swans are borderline unbeatable if they've got a paddock to run in, still theirs to lose for mine.

As for our two proud fanbases engaging in unseemingly back-and-forth, come on, we're not Victorians

Forgot to add, what's the over/under on the number of minutes the footy shows will give to the 1st/3rd place game vs the rest of the weekend?

It's the only way we know. We need the validation of our captors, full blown Stockholm Syndrome

Just tell us you're proud of us and we'll be fine.

Is it only one discussion topic per club per day or something?

 

[Dockerjonz]

Haha Warner on wing with bout 1min to go had approximately 25 steps n no htb -i guess the rule is 15m in a straight line you need to bounce

 

[thistimeforsure]

God knows what to make of us , gutsy 1pt win against top team away , bit stiff in another couple against good teams flogged by the 16th team , belted a top 4 contender by near 100 and got smashed by a team near us on the ladder by 70 and been reasonable for most of the rest of the games

Bloody weirdo team

Funny no-ones really picked up how we are a genuine top 4 team in dry daytime footy but pretty crap under lights or if it’s slippery in any way

Great post. I thought umpiring for the 1st half was best I'd seen all season, second half not so good although I do agree it balanced out with neither side getting much of an advantage out of it overall. Agree re the 13-2 and not losing much sleep. If you keep giving sides 5 goal starts it's going to lose you a game eventually and rather it now than later in the season. Lot of positives for both sides with some of their younger players especially Draper.

 

[cactuscall]

Would rather Freo in the mix for finals as they've got a draw, makes our percentage relevant against Freo & Essendon.

Keep going you heave ho'ers.

Strange comment. You wouldn't rather Freo have lost and you'd be above them on the ladder right now?

 

[72 years a slave]

Bloods were dominated most of the day and only lost by one point. Perspective

 

[revo333]

Nothing more sure of a Sydney collapse in September on the big stage yet again. They look so vulnerable for such large periods in so many games.

On that's on the SCG.

Just wait until they get to the MCG in september, if they do

Another Perspective: an undermanned Freo were outscored for 3 quarters and still won, holding off a manic Sydney on their home deck.

Right now doesn't really matter, in the long run if Freo were to have dropped out of the 8 that's one less team we can use our percentage against.

Admittedly we aren't catching Sydney, so that wasn't ideal for us but meh, was cool to see Freo win.

And yet… we’re still well on top of the ladder with a massive percentage and the best record of any top eight team against the rest of the top eight.

Which suggests that though we’re looking “vulnerable” in so many games, we’re still winning those games, which is the object, surely?

didn't he do that bullshit bounce he does no reason on the first couple of steps? Not rewatching to check

which teams aren't looking vulnerable at times I wonder?

Do Freo go undefeated the rest of the year? Hawks in Tassie is tough but they look a fair shot

This is why the Logan McDonald miss was justice. An absolute disgrace that they didn't call that. If that was an inexperienced freo player, that's called every time.

Our best is very good, but you won't get it every week. We're still young and inconsistent. Particularly in the forward line. And now with Pearce and Cox out the backline could struggle to deliver week in week out. Draper for example was immense yesterday, but was dropped a couple weeks ago because of form.
