[Bulldogs85]

He's been playing forward and has kicked a few goals at VFL level. A little surprised he hasn't played more TBH

hasn’t even played one AFL game this year probably should of Re-Signed with Fremantle

One of Cox and Pearce have been injured all season so would have been a very good chance of games in retrospect. They were only offering one year deals understandable and it sounds like Hamling wanted the security of a longer contract

 

[RWnBluey]

Holding the ball clearly no longer rule of the week.

 

[Mofra]

You can see why the swans were willing to hand Naughton a 10 year contract

Yeah ultra hot on it for one week then back to normal. Absolute jokers running the game.

 

[Struggle]

Watching these tall forwards attempt to play football hurts.

To put on my tinfoil hat. Everyone was complaining about how they were never paying holding the ball, so they went so far in the opposite direction for a few weeks, the most horrendous calls you’ll see (mostly against Garcia) so everyone complains that there is too many holding the balls and they can quietly go back to what it was

I did notice in a few games last week where the guy was given a lot more time to get rid of it, and a few where the ump took a lot longer to call for a ball up when it was clearly locked in & no prior.

The umpires have it so tough and can’t really win either way, their bosses really need to sort out some things before next season.

 

[ossie_21]

Lipinski just kicked one of the goals of the season after Grundy smacked it back into play & not through for a behind…

 

[Bulldogs85]

Sydney have been worked out nothing more then pretenders

 

[X_box_X]

Season over for Swans

 

[Golden_6]

Sydney’s top 4 spot might be in play at this rate.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Pretty pathetic start from Sydney after HT. 22-4 disposals, 3.1 to zero. Would want to turn it on soon before this margin blows out

Sydney are lucky that their midfielders were so good at kicking goals, now that has dried up they're just not threatening the goals.

 

[doggiesin08]

Wouldn’t mind a Sydney win if we could sneak up to 4th and get them in week 1.

 

[X_box_X]

Umpires have a bit of momentum here. Can Collingwood stop it?

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Definitely something in that. Also missing Papley and Hayward doesn’t look to be moving as well as he was before hurting his knee against Brisbane. They were probably their most dangerous forwards when things were going well

 

[Struggle]

What happened to Warner? Did teams realise his left side is only for balance?

 

[X_box_X]

Sydney has no width. When they were cruising, they were attacking through the corridor and cutting up their opponents with ease. Now that teams have started defending the corridor, Sydney have to rely on slow play which involves using the width of the ground. They're no good at it.

 

[AFDogs]

What has happened to Sydney? I’ve never seen a team fall so quickly like this

They have really poor key position players and are now being forced to kick it down the line. Pretty amazing drop off.

 

[Lindsay_Gilbee]

Can see why Sydney offered Naughton a 10 year deal.

Yep can’t recall where I read/watched it but if you deny them the corridor they struggle. The cost of being so dominant so early, you’re going to be studied and figured out.

 

[Sentinel]

Swans dominating AFL like no team has in over a decade

The devil is in the detail of Sydney's remarkable percentage gap on the rest of the competition.

For which end?
