Roast Sack Horse

[wolftone57]

Can't everyone just have their own idea of when enough is enough though?

If you continue to clamber onto Horse's achievements as a coach then he will still be coach at 90 with his zimmer frame. At some point the focus has to turn to what he's NOT achieving.

For many that was as early as after 2015/16, when many believed he'd wasted a great Swans team and failed to get the most out of a generational player in Buddy.

For others it was during the rebuild of 2019/20, when many believed a fresh set of eyes were needed to take this next era of Swans players into the future.

And for some, like myself and Jewelsbon (not wanting to speak for her - just going on her comments on the subject), I think this year was the straw that broke the camel's back, whether it was because it was one grand final humiliation too many, or one wasted 'dominant' season too many, or just a general gut feel that Horse is out of ideas and time for somebody new.

And as, I think it was Winston Churchill, once said, if you lose Jewelsbon, you've lost the war.

I think he wasted Hewett then decided he didn't like him any more. Then Hewett goes to Blues, plays as a proper mid, not just a tagger & is 3rd in the B&F.

He wasted so many players. Made really bad decisions by taking injured players into GF, 3 players definitely unfit in 2016. Even as far back as 2014 that was happening.

In 2014 he said, quote;

I had no answers


What the **** were you doing in the bloody box all effing day?

Each time we have been on the end of a GF shellacking;

HE HAD NO ANSWERS

I would hate us to get to the GF in 2025 & HIM HAVING NO ANSWERS

He has developed a different game plan but essentially the forward set ups are the same & we rely far too much on players bunching together for a pack marking situation. Either that or we just bomb & turn it over. We do not open up the forward line by playing wide or spreading all forwards wide with one central target. That seems a bit hard for some reason.

Let the defenders take the corridor when they zone. Push the ball wide & make them defend, therefore creating space. But that would be too hard. The space you create allows players room in the central part of the forward line.
