Preview Round 17 The Sydney Swans vs. The Melbourne Demons

[Swans120]

I'm not sure if one can say wholesale changes are needed next week as the last 2 weeks we have been very good against top 8 contenders.

However, i hope changes are seen because today has been the worst performance i have ever seen from a Swans side. THE WORST.

I just cannot understand how this could have happened at the moment. For them to play so passively, lazily, sluggishly, weakly, insipidly. However you want to describe it. With us not assured of a top 8 spot yet still in contention for a top 4 spot...but what gets me most is in Jude's 250th. That makes me sick. Jude doesn't deserve this shit.

 

[dr nick]

can someone deliver a Danny Green style cross to McAvaney's jaw?

THE DEES ARE GONNA BE SOMETHING!!!!!!!

 

[Hollow Knight]

This is the most un-Sydneylike I've ever seen the Swans play.

Can't work it out.

 

[Swans120]

It's got us stumped, TBD. Stumped and horribly disappointed.

 

[AG]

We have been shit but Melbourne have been phenomenal. One of those days were the ball is bouncing their way and it actually is at most 50/50 contests.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Ox embarrassing himself with his ridiculous bias.

 

[Hollow Knight]

We have been shit but Melbourne have been phenomenal.

Yeah they did the same against us. They just absolutely clicked and everything came off for them.

Demons playing like Angels

 

[SOPH_CROSS]

Yes all the credit to melbourne
they have been amazing today

Ox embarrassing himself with his ridiculous bias.

The whole commentary team is having multiple orgasms over Melbourne.

Even in one-sided games, I expect better. Maybe not from a clown like Schwartz, but certainly from the likes of Bwuce and Commetti.

 

[Swans120]

STFU up, Bruce. No man should be able to jizz his pants as often as Bruce does in a 3 hour telecast.

I'm so shattered for Jude Bolton.

 

[balldman]

Ox embarrassing himself with his ridiculous bias.

Ox embarrasses himself every opportunity he gets.He IS the Master of the Moronic

 

[Swans120]

One of the more disappointing things is the way that they haven't responded at all to this thumping. Aside from one 5 minute period in the 2nd quarter they haven't arrested momentum at all.

This is the kind of performance that will have people saying Roos' influence on the team has waned and he is retiring at the exact right time.

 

[sherb]

Jude Bolton deserves better than the garbage the side has dished up for him today.

 

[indieswan96]

Good to know Bruce thinks Melbourne have been hard done by the Umps.

 

[snappy]

Full credit to Melbourne, but i cant tell you how pissed i am. First game ive watched in a month, finally found a good stream overseas, woke up at 5am to watch this sht.!!!

I'm sure just before half time when a Swans player(can't remember who)gave away a 50- he(Roos) mouthed into his headset-"Your call''.
I bet the question asked , came from John Longmire & was along the lines of "Do I drag him?"

 

[Swans120]

Melbourne have played, when you look at the way they have played only and not take into account the opposition, some of the best football i have seen from any team all year.

Sydney, if you look at them the same way, have played some of the worst football i have seen from any team all year and for the last few years.

 

[shadowfeet]

I've decided to stop watching before I smash my tv in. absolutely pathetic, possibly the worst game I've seen from the swans

 

[BarneyBent]

Commentators should learn the rules. A person can only be pinged for HTB if the tackle is a legal one. The tackle on Bevo was not legal. Therefore, the fact that he threw it is irrelevant.

 

[barry fu]

Where is the RSPCA - surely it's against the law to do this to such a noble Bird as the SWAN.
What a Public plucking.

 

[Zarrix]

The Swans should give every fan that attended this atrocity a refund.

Surely this would have to be our worst performance since Round 1 1996?

Out of interest, why wasn't a 50m penalty paid as well?

Not that the Melbourne cheer squad posing as a commentary team would actually ask that question.

I was thinking the same thing. They said the throw came first, like he was just throwing it before he was even tackled.

 

[barry fu]

JESSELENKO you beauty.

Edit, thanks very much for that hook nose Cometti, you West Perth squib.

Sydney still haven't reached Melbourne's qrt time score...
