Game Day QF1 Sydney Swans v. GWS 7 Sept 3:20 pm @ SCG

[Kennedy Parker]

I'm not foreseeing a grand final parade this year - at least not in Sydney.

The only thing more off their game than the guys in red and white are the maggots. Deplorable one-sided umpiring.

There might be one in Western Sydney

 

[Bloods86]

Paps good but not sure how Jmac got a recall.

 

[Tesla Tenet]

McInerney on 73% ToG for 3 possessions at 33% DE%. Match committee are deluded.

We looked best in patches in the last 3 games with Lloyd, Florent and Campbell rotating on the wing. Keep one of Warner and Heeney forward at all times.

Inject paps and Parker into more centre bounces.

Sub off Amartey.

Grundy has been crap and needs to lift along with Warner and Gulden and Blakey. Wouldn't mind throwing Haydos in the ruck.

Get Campbell on now

 

[melbournehammer]

McInerney waits until there are 5 defenders on 2 forwards and then kicks it there.

Swear this is a team tactic to wait and aim to have a contest in the pocket and set up defensively

 

[The King!]

You mean their half forward line that's how pressed ours seems. Players seemingly look up and no-one to kick to

I would sub Amartey as bad as Jmac looks

Have Hayward Parker more as targets with Paps and warner crumbing

let logan lead up

 

[caesar88]

We've wired this team around ball movement and speed, not hardness or pressure. Not saying this as a "told you so", but literally everything I feared about this line-up has eventuated.

 

[swanssince2002]

I get it, JMac was arguably the best winger before he got injured but frick me GWS are targetting the crippled version of it. Getting beaten hard on the wing.

 

[Kennedy Parker]

Sub Jmac and put Parker in the middle, 21 points isn’t impossible by any stretch.

 

[Swagjordx]

Amartey offers nothing as usual, JMAC not match ready ffs

 

[clivus]

Maybe amartey can play CHF. A bit closer to the action

 

[bloodsbigot]

Amartey doesn't know how to offer a lead, just waits for the ball to be put on his head

Exactly. Ripping my hair out watching him play. Isn't his job to crash packs at the very least? Once the ball goes to ground he's awkward as ****. Doesn't chase. Doesn't apply pressure. Just watches his opponent stroll away.

I think being ****ing deplorable in finals has been a team tactic for years now

Remember that time mid season Amartey was in like the top 5 for goals kicked lol

Clearly a fluke.

 

[bloodsbigot]

Look, games a long way from over as it's been our strength this year to do better in the second half. But man of man, this is going to take some effort.

 

[Swagjordx]

We need a plan B for this 2nd half

 

[KingV23]

JMac will be ommitted next week. Bring back Adams.

And the one “effective” disposal was a shank that Hayward made the best of.

It’s Reid 2022 all over again.

 

[TheGoatBaron]

The goat may have cancer and I already feel shit about this without the Swans piling it on more with their customary slow starts

 

[MR0808]

Jmac reminiscent of Sam Reid 22 GF

At least we have chances to drop him

 

[elastic]

At some point they need to decide they have to win this game and start playing like it rather than just trying to reduce the damage. Hopefully they come out in the second half with an attacking mindset.
Also our zone defense is just not cutting it and we need to be able to play one on one. Unfortunately we have not practised it all year so the opposition is just slicing through us.

Start by subbing jmac

Can only ****ing hope
