Right o, settle down Peter Allen
The day Gaso gets Instagram - or any form of social media - is further away than the day North play a sixth consecutive decent game.
In 2001 l went up to Sydney with the club, stayed in the same hotel as the players and also dined with the players and got to get to the inner sanctum and watched this drubbing
R18 Sydney 5.2 10.4 13.8 22.11 143 dftd North Melbourne 1.5 1.8 2.13 3.18 36
This side had Simmo, Stevo, Archer, Sinclair, Grant, Harvey and quite a few other well known players so l have been through worse compared to today.
The other grounds dont hold a bar to the SGC when it comes to being our bogey ground.
A prime Fruity Allisson would be handyYeah we're too samey with CZ, PC and Eddie. One of them will make way for an electric small forward, chip scab of we ever recruit one

Theres room for bothFruity can get to the end of line behind LT
There was a singles party being held at the game today with the old traffic light wrist bands on. That's how serious they are about footy.Bunch of dumb campaigners they are. You know what maybe even makes it worse? They don’t give a shit if they lose. It’s just a days entertainment to them.

Some yuk performances today, but ultimately the opposition was too good. Could’ve been 20 goals TBH.
Don’t want to single anyone out, especially a young guy who is going to be a superstar, but my word McKercher had a shocker. Seemed absolutely rattled in that second quarter and just kept making mistakes. I was disappointed we didn’t try him up in the middle/forward once it was clear the game was dusted.
Hard to take any positives out of that one.
Im not sure, part of me just wants him to keep doing what he's doing at VFL for the rest of the year and lock in another contract. Let that self belief keep growing, he's still a raw talent, besides if he's going to be a long term player there's no rush.We have RHJ tearing up the VFL he will be in before the year is out
When did we "take it to the best"? Promise not trying to be a smart ar$e
Yearly reminder that the SCG is hardly a "postage stamp" unless you lump in Docklands, Giants Stadium, Ballarat Oval, Adelaide Oval, Bellerive and especially Stadium Australia, Kardinia Park and Norwood as well - https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-06...sis-how-much-do-ground-sizes-matter/101154950
Anyway
About the game - it was to be expected. We've had 5 solid weeks of progress. More than due a disappointing game. Hopefully the players are smarting from getting smashed, understand what's required to be elite and respond against Carlton.
Absolutely. Well worth a readThe ABC link is a brilliant analysis
Never really thought about the camera angle for the SCG.
Ronald McDonald and the Hamburglar could have kicked 4 each yesterday with that level of supply from the Swans midfield.You know you had a down day when you let Logan McDonald kick 4.2
I find it funny if all these players being mentioned, but not one mention of McKercher.Generous.
How about we add Zurhaar and Corr.
McKercher was in our worst. Butchered the crap out of it and was weak around the contest.I was at the game live and while our defenders were well beaten, we lost it in the midfield. The lads got pumped in the middle. Everyone had an off day for sure. They all had off days. Sheezel was smooth most of the time. Wardlaw looked a bit underdone and a few of the boys made some shocking turnovers. In the first half there was still the drive and aggro aroun the contest, but it dropped off fast in second half. I knew we'd lose, just hoping it was competitive.
McKercher and Zurhaar and LDU maybe our best?
Alot of tackles just didn't stick, and papley was running riot first half. Swans have reliable depth and are quality outfit.
Not getting enough from Powell/Shiels/Ford atm, I am asking for powell + shiels out this week.

Still waiting for Logan to step up and kick a bag against a top side, or win a game at the death. I think he is becoming the Hipwood of the Swans.
He’s 18 years old ffsMcKercher was in our worst. Butchered the crap out of it and was weak around the contest.
Don’t let kick out stats cloud judgement on his performance.
My point is if people want to bag out players, don’t be selective.He’s 18 years old ffs
