Autopsy Sydney Legacy in Grand Finals continues 10 goal loss to the Lions

[Heeney2Franklin]

Think everything has been said in the Game Day thread but whatever.

First Lions were absolutely terrific and thoroughly deserved the win and did it from 5th.

As for Sydney weak/pathetic jokers who just repeated the 2022 performance (90% the same side)

81 points 2 years ago, 60 points this year. We're making progress

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Basically if we happen to get there AGAIN(hope not) the opposition should start their celebrations a week early

 

[SBD Gonzalez]

Ah well. We did that Sydney Swans Grand Final thing again. Bloody hell.

 

[tombomb]

I dunno why people get so stressed about tickets. We all knew what was going to happen.

 

[RUNVS]

I hope more people will begin to agree with me when I say Horse needs to start giving a shit about clearances. He doesn't care about them as he wants to focus on the turnover game but in finals we get smashed in clearances and it makes it impossible for us to win.

 

[Jack Lord]

Sydney has built it's success, partly by building long tenures among coaches.

Horse has been a very good home and away coach.

But the question must now be asked : how can anyone have any confidence in us winning a grand final with horse at the helm?

Our teams roll up flat, year after year.

Unbelievable.

I'm so glad I didn't fly down to Australia for this shit.

 

[Membling]

Mentally shot

Need huge changes to change this

Just to go out with a whimper. Again.

Beaten by a team outside the four. Again.

Playing an injured player. Again.

Game done and dusted at half time. Again.

If we go undefeated in 2025, we would still lose the GF.

So disappointed

 

[Jeffers]

It’s the hope that kills you…..

 

[BloodySwan]

This was our season. Best team in the comp, well rested against a bettered team. No reason for such a poor performance.

Credit to Brisbane, they were brilliant in the second quarter but we had no idea what we were doing.

After so many losses I'm numb to it all now. Hard to get excited and dumped on time and time again

 

[Kennedy Parker]

Well that was disappointing.

There’s always next year. Again.

After so many GF no-shows I’m not even really mad anymore.

 

[Superstar swan]

**** this club

 

[Swansujelly]

Horse has to go

 

[melbournehammer]

That team was the best this list could put out there - it’s not going to improve organically so needs something else

 

[RampeRobe]

What’s wrong with Isaac?

 

[caesar88]

Heinous.

You feel like giving up on footy in a way, because how are we actually ever going to win a flag? We can't even gather our heads enough to even be competitive, let alone good. It'll be in the boys heads now, and it is officially "a thing." So, that'll be fun.

Thank you Rowbottom for showing up. Worked his absolute arse off, the only guy bringing real heat. 19 touches, 10 clearances and 12 cont. possessions is a genuinely good game. The only guy who looked capable in the contest, and his goal was clutch. So kudos to him. Fox, Florent & Grundy tried hard but had no real impact.

Defence a shambles, not enough winners in the midfield, just nothing at ground level inside 50.

Yuck, yuck, yuck.

 

[The King!]

Now we cop it because our side is useless under pressure

they will suck me back in next year

break from
big footy **** it

i'm shattered by that

lions just way too good but our shitnesss
made it worse

they can talk all they want the hurt doesn't drive them nothing works

bye horse

when's tassie in

 

[grimlock]

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and hoping for a different result

 

[Swansujelly]

so dissapointed for all so concerened, I'm shattered

 

[Membling]

Why do I still get notifications for your shit house club? **** off and suck shit

How about read the Chief thread.

Oh also, **** off.

 

[SeanM]

Brisbane was way too good.

But with hindsight I don't think we should have played Fox as a forward. If you select Fox, you play him in defence. Otherwise start Campbell as a quicker player in our forward line.

Also seem to lack a bit of depth in our inside midfield. We have got Rowbottom, Heeney and Warner. But then we rely on Gulden, Jordan and Parker (who was forward). So could have done with another natural inside mid rotating through. But that has been our structure all season.

 

[kickthething]

Sydney…..we exist to ruin grand finals

Sydney…..we exist to ruin grand finals

We exist to make other teams feel good about themselves.

 

[bloodsbigot]

Shattered that Dane will never win one.
