The Swans seemed to have this wall up at half-back with Malceski , Rampe and Shaw just blanketing all of our forward entries. They then put the rest of the team on the ball and shut down our ball carriers so they couldn't use the ball effectively.
We were forced to just kick in hope, which meant turn over after turnover which they capitalised on through long kicks at goal.
Sydney knows that ground better than anyone, and a dry day finally allowed them to use their rugby style game to their advantage.
Ross tried lots of things, but nothing was working as the players were spent.
The form of Mayne, De Boer, Suban and Spurr is a worry.
Tabs not up to it yet.
Clarke and Pearce were terrible, however they are only just back into the side.
Short week this week, but at least we don't have to travel.
We need to get the hunger from last year back,
