**** OFF GIANTS YOU PLASTIC PIECES OF SHIT!

 

[Gongswan]

oh well

 

[legend166]

Ripping game of footy, epic effort by our boys given we had two go off injured in the last quarter, they looked to be out on their feet in the end.

Didn't you hear the commentator? Two on the bench has no impact!

 

[J_Moore]

Not much of a way for Ted to cap off a career. Poor bloke.

Can Newman be upgraded, or are we shit out of luck?

 

[Gongswan]

First and last time I watch the NEAFL if that goose is on special comments again. Shocking.

not usually

 

[The Swans Blog]

Concerning for us is that Richards looks absolutely shot and Towers decision making at NEAFL is worse than AFL

 

[The Swans Blog]

Who is the special comments guy? What an absolute moron.

Was so excited at one point he had to go off mic to cough.

Do you remember those tickets you sold me to the '12 GF? I was wondering if you had the original receipt somewhere because I was trying to figure out where I was sitting. I know that it was on the 4th level and you also sold 2 to swansfan51 and his lady (friend?).

Seriously though nothing was going our way ffs! Injuries were the worst. But the most heartbreaking thing was watching Ted drop that mark !

That's what it comes down to. Since we ****ed up our chance by not turning up in 2014, our finals or run in into has been filled with injury and no luck. It's like we are being punished repeatedly for that lack of effort.

Biggs the second coming up I reckon!

 

[grimlock]

 

[Banyo Bloods]

Bad luck Swans, hopefully that's not a sign of things to come

It's a sign of already happened but not in a GF I guess

 

[Tedeski]

How ironic that poor Ted falls over for the winning gift goal to the opposition?
It is well & truly time for Ted. Did some great things but falling over is old player's syndrome.
I love Ted though for what he gave us.

 

[Tedeski]

This guy is the closest thing to Mal we have.
Hope we can keep him.

 

[Wayne Swan]

........Can Newman be upgraded, or are we shit out of luck?

Sure can be but if I were Newman I'd be asking for a trade ala Shane Biggs who is now firmly in the Dogs back 6.

Reckon we've stuffed up here, he looks AFL standard to me and we haven't tried him, IMO a big mistake as he will go onto a good career elsewhere and we'll get nothing for him.

 

[swansfan51]

Well deserved, Newman really impressed me

 

[mcs095]

A valiant effort from our boys today - was always going to be tough without Nankervis and Laidler (with them in the team I argue we would of won). Came down to a bit of luck late, and a couple of wasted chances.

We must keep hold of Newman - if it was me I'd throw him in the deep end next week (couldn't do worse than some of the alternatives available). But he looks a ready made HBF to me with another good pre-season.

We've tried Jones & Crappy in that position, so who knows, Newman might get a start next game.

It isn't like Crappy set the world on fire anyway.

Newman, Rose and Foote were immense in that last quarter. Awesome clutch players.

Sick and tired of GWS. Hope they find themselves in the exact same position the Lions are in at the moment.

He can quit football entirely at the end of the year and mess up the locker room on his way out for all i care. If he's a competent distributor we should consider him for this week.

They are going to be our biggest rival for some time I feel if they manage their list well, so we may as well get used to it.

Sorry was a bit quiet towards the end I was caught up in the match
