Instead of 2016 I'd replace it with the 2017 semi or maybe even the Geelong game last year. 2016 was at least a competitive contest.Me as coach.
The boys all rock into the club Monday morning after grabbing a bite to eat & a latte together...
They're sent into a room with 2 large screens.
One simply has the following written on it:
71-0
2022
2016
2014
The other has these games playing on repeat.
That is where they spend the whole Monday.
I don't say a word all day. Not one. No hellos. Nothing. Then at 5pm I shut it all down and say "see you at training early tomorrow".
Next win, maybe.When does the anger simmer down guys? I haven’t been this angry at the club since 2014 gf
Know more in the middle of the weekLike what I’ve seen of this Hanily.

Of course he does if he wants to keep his mod jobcaesar88 likes this.
Is that site still goingLiz its probably a good thing RWO has been offline the past 2 weeks
Last night was just a finals like disintegration but it happened in round 21.
2024 is a abnormally long season with 24 rounds so in that aspect we are right on track for typical week 1 finals performance.
You know there’s a Dad Jokes thread on the North board ?Lighten up Swans Fans (they are my 2nd side as a FYI). You have won more games this year than the Kangas have in 5 years. Anyhow this report just in
Fraud Raid at Moore Park by NSW Police
Officers from the Fraud Division carried out an early morning raid at the Swans Moore Park offices. Several items were being bagged for evidence, and preliminary charges of impersonating a top AFL side have been laid. The evidence items included the following.
- Some heavy duty wall paper.
- A receipt for some New Clothes purchased at the Emperors Emporium by a T.Harley
- A Game Plan folder, that was missing parts B, C and D.
- A music CD - The best of Pretenders.
- An unused Qantas return Ticket to Melbourne from back in May for a passenger S.Wicks.
More news to come…….
You will catch the monarch at this rateYou know there’s Dad Jokes thread on the North board ?
Hang on that might be the whole Board !
Meant to ask, do you like fast players ? I do.
It’s not possible lol. 20 a day for 20 years. Long live The King!You will catch the monarch at this rate
It mightn’t.Shuffling players wont fix whatever is happening
It mightn’t.
But the status quo certainly won’t either.
Once you lose selection integrity, everything else falls apart.
Bit unfair on Cunningham. Played well on Cameron 2 weeks ago after coming back, and I don't really think any of our actual defenders can be fairly judged based on us just letting opposition midfields do what they want on repeat, the last 2 weeks.Sure i mean change Wicks/C.Warner etc you still have Warner,Mills,Blakey,Lloyd,Cunningham,Adams,Heeney,Gulden/Logan playing the worst football of their careers.
That's one approach. But instead (or as well as) I'd find some games where our pressure was at its best. Remind them of what they can do and what the result is.Me as coach.

Maybe a bull like Parker starting in the middle with Rowy and Adams, start Heens and Chad forward they can both mark , just something different and those blokes are hard nuts in the middle , bring back our DNAThat's one approach. But instead (or as well as) I'd find some games where our pressure was at its best. Remind them of what they can do and what the result is.
People (here, and in the media) say that teams have worked out how to beat us, but I'm not convinced it's all (or even mostly) things that other teams are doing rather than things we have stopped doing ourselves. Mostly applying pressure. Sure, blocking up the corridor helps, but if it was as easy as that opposition teams would have cottoned on much sooner.
The Richmond game was an anomaly (at the time) in the way our pressure wasn't where it had been and needed to be. But we can look back now and see it was just a bad game. But then it's gradually dropped off since the second GWS game to a point where it's putrid.
And I don't understand why nothing has been done to address the awful starts. We would have comfortably won against the Saints, Dockers and Lions with a better start. (And yes, we comfortably won twice against GWS, against Carlton, reasonably comfortably against Geelong despite those awful starts.) I had hoped that last week would jar them into action, to find a way to switch on - mostly to apply some pressure - right from the beginning. But instead they decided just to not bother trying at the start of the second, third or fourth quarters either.
Why recruit a player just for him to dwell in the VFL? This I don’t get. If you’re not playing him, bring in kids like Tom HanilyHorse said Amartey was managed , so why not play Hambling !

I really like Roberts, with the strapping and the left foot bombs he reminds me of Hanners.You’re absolutely right. Roberts tries and gets stuck in, but his disposal and skills let him down most of the time. It’s actually bad to have him leading our play, because so many of his actions result in a turnover.
We are starting to get all 'Collective Minds'-ish now.Me as coach.
