EXACTLY EXACTLY EX MOTHER******* ACTLYWhat's the ******* point of saying that you are cracking down on players leading with the head and then continually rewarding them with free kicks.
To be honest though... there were a few really stupid free kicks that we gave away, and our first quarter was dismal. It's always hard to give a team like Sydney a 25 point lead.umpires? what umpires? all I saw was 18 bombers vs 21 swans.
Not blaming the umps for the loss, but at least give us a chance. Sydney are definitely a 4-5 goal better side than us, but that's ridiculous. They don't need to be favoured so much to beat us.Anybody blaming the umpiring is deluded. Dumb football at crucial times cost us. Especially from senior players or leaders. Winderlich jumping over the top of Tippett, think it was Chappy's tackle on McVeigh, Myers blazing indiscriminantly for the McGlynn goal.
The two positives were Hurley; dominated and Heppell is clutch.
Yep, I think we were outplayed tonight; the umpiring was crap, but they played better, seemed to have more numbers around the contest etc.Anybody blaming the umpiring is deluded.

Mark Ricciuto just said that was our worse loss in a very long time. Thanks meat head.
He also said Josh Kennedy could get himself "another Brownlow", so, yeah..
Good stuff, Roo.
Brings back memories of ...........
Round 2, 2011 @ ANZ stadium
Sydney 14.14 98
Essendon 13.15 93
Free kicks 35-20
Yep yep this I like thisSwans are still the benchmark, we've gotta remember that, regardless of why they're the benchmark.
Our ball use uncharacteristically killed us tonight, I'm taking a fair bit of heart in the fact that bar a couple of really bad clangers, we were absolutely **** deep in that game after quarter time
