North v Sydney game thread

[Yianni]

Am listening to this on the radio over the Internet.

Sounds like we're getting run off our feet again as per usual. Can someone who is watching this on TV confirm or deny?

How do we look? Matchups?

Where do we need to improve?

 

[Yianni]

57 handballs to 23 in the first quarter!

Plus they've had more kicks than us!

20 tackles to 10, in our favour.

All sounds like we're chasing tails...

 

[racehorse27]

Watt on Hall
Arch on Oloughlin - Archer has gone the spoil twice leaving o'loughlin to crumb the packs - reulting in 2 goals.

We are kicking long; but really struggling when clearing the ball from heavy traffic (as usual)

 

[mighty mick]

looks like the possesion count is gonna be the same as the first time we played them in canberra.

were tackling a lot cos where chasing a lot

 

[the_big_sav]

we are not making enough with our chances

and of our 20 tackles maybe 5 or less have been good tackles

 

[Paulkanga2000]

Swans 5.2.32

Roos 2.4.16 - Harding, Corey Jones

Need to man up, tackle and stop them from running through midfield

Paul

 

[Woodson]

They are running in NUMBERS NUMBERS NUMBERS !!

North are not going man on man and that is giving them a 2-5 metre buffer to make space and create thier play. It's getting annoying. Junior should of had TWO majors from on the board plus Shagga completely fluffed a monty from 40 m out...

Our rucks are inept. Corey McK should retire at HT !! He has committed clanger after clanger...

North can't find space when moving in the forward line...the passing to Sav have been pathetic.

 

[scottywiper]

This seems to be a real plan against us. Didn't they have an incredible number of handballs in Canberra as well?

 

[Yianni]

Can Motlop kick!?!?!

You know, I hear a lot of talk about Motlop having these "freaky" skills, but time after time I just see (or hear) him missing shots at goal!

What have the three shots he's missed been like?

 

[roo9699]

thank god,i can only watch the first half of this crap,because i have to go out for drinks,i can even save money by not bothering with sms scores in 2nd half!
I feel a real hiding is on the cards!
look for a double figure margin.

Fading.... Fading... Fading.... Fading....

I think we need 3 more sets of goal posts at arden Street.
Anyway Corza has scored a goal, but it still looks hard from here.

Tell me something new.

 

[moomba]

12 scoring shots to 10 in our favour.

Only 4 goals down.

We are far from out of this game.

Pah, that's nothing.

In the 1998 Grand Final we did it in 4!

 

[the_big_sav]

same as the canberra game

sydney are handballing till we stop chasing (which is very very poor)

cant hold any tackles hmmmmm like the whole season

two slow to get it forward and no crumers in the forward line
