Game Day Round 2, 2023: Swans v Hawks, SCG 1:10pm

[Leather Poisoning]

The fact we are wining the clearances is huge.

We would be 10 goals down now if we weren't seeing such a huge effort from Worpel and Day. These two are having an enormous game.

We haven't had any luck, or moemntum shifts our way yet. If we get a 2-3 goal run we might actually see a very different game.

 

[Wesley2]

Turnovers are bound to happen, but can we clamp down, mark up and tackle when they do, plz

 

[Glenferrie Arty Deco]

Morrison > Nash
Lewis > Kosi
Scrim > CJ
DGB > Frost
Lynch > Reeves

5 pretty obvious upgrades if/when form/injury allows it this season if we're honest. Brockman/Morris/Seamus likely need spots in this side at some point too

 

[MinerBoy]

Stop calling it a lack of effort when it’s clearly not a lack of effort. You don’t win clearances, and contested ball against a side like Sydney, with a lack of effort.

I’d say out defensive efforts are very poor.

So what about the inability for one of the 5 defenders not playing on Amartey to drop in the hole?

There’s no premium on those stats for the swans when we are as bad we are ball in hand. I can call it how I see it and if you disagree I don’t really care.

We desperately need to find a forward.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Forward line in shambles, backline non-existent

 

[Off The Couch]

I’m all for keeping the ball moving forward BUT there has to be a Hawk player in the vicinity

 

[peetoo]

Was one passage the Hus was on one wing, passed back to 50 that player passed to other flank, who then went forward …to Hus!

Isn’t he supposed to be slow?

 

[BlueWaterHawk]

One possitive... the jumpers look amazing, keep it!

This Armatey bloke goes alright

 

[HedgeFund]

We look good until swans get the ball in space. From that moment they just torch us

Scores from D50 are 38 - 8. Shows how easily the Swans are smacking us on turnover.

No midfield defensive depth and they stroll straight back through the corridor.

 

[Birdofprey]

We’re not getting reward for effort going forward that much is certain and a lot of that is our own fault as we look disorganized and lacking confidence, but have a look at the below stats and there are some positives.

You beat me to it. I just checked AFL stats and was going to post this. Parts of our game are good - clearances we improving abit which is nice.

Decisions sometimes abit crazy and a quick transition exposes us like no other team at moment. Shatters our confidence and leads to some of the changers we’ve seen.

 

[Hodgey09]

Massive chance for a winless season this lot.

 

[SSSSSS]

**** me I'm really going to regret my Kayo sub this year

 

[Max Powers]

Feel for Moore he's being going hard all day and the umps keep ****ing him over. It must be wearing him down getting no reward for his effort.

No chance.

 

[Howe Amazing]

Personally think umps have been so one sided. Been horrible whole half. That’s what happens when you are towards the bottom. I don’t think we have been too bad, rucks need to help out defence more

 

[Rhayader]

Umpires are having a mare here

They aren’t doing much today to dispel my general impression that frees/non-frees tend to benefit the dominant side.

Poor/developing teams really don’t need any help to be shit…

 

[theiaofseed]

If we play like this all season we will go winless. Mitchell just has to work something out.

Swans might just be the bets team in the comp playing on their home ground, people need to relax with the sky is falling stuff.

 

[killerspud]

G Healy stroking his Sydney hard on.

That's the worst single mental image I have had for a while - I hate you

 

[Hodgey09]

No chance.

Tell me who we beat playing like this without brown and gold glasses on.

 

[Mrzohs]

how did the swans get Goldcoast and the Hawks to start the season.

 

[peetoo]

Denver and Scrimshaw should be playing in front of Frost and CJ.

Morrison Husthwaite Ramma long all contenders

 

[Hodgey 15]

Massive chance for a winless season this lot.

For God's sake it's Round 2. Relax.
