News Swans Talk in the Media 2023

A few grades I'd quibble with (even without having necessarily watched the matches ):

Too generous to Brisbane (and NMFC) and Geelong and even us.
Bit harsh on Carlton (Adelaide were good) and Richmond (they were in the game until near the end).

Stocks up, stocks down: Bobby dazzles, but Lions have moments of regret

In the 2023 AFL Grand Final, Bobby Hill played a matchwinner's game, and Joe Daniher stood up for Brisbane. But two experienced Lions lowered their colours. Here's whose stocks are up and down.

I know right? Richmond act like thugs and that's our fault? Bunch of *******s

just watched this section on my lunch break. Was a vey confusing 2 minutes.

Edit: also just checked the Tigers board to try and make a bit of sense of King/Johnson’s view . No further insight, “Sydney were chirpy thugs” doesn’t really seem to be a view of Tiger’s supporters…

BUT a lot of absolute despair - this club is done! Embarrassing!! Sack Hardwick!!! - etc etc. From a team that is 2 seasons off three flags! **** me, bigfooty supporters are a miserable bunch lmao

Barrett on Access All Areas got the weighting right, said Tigers had some injuries but Swans lost its entire spine and achieved an 'extraordinary' win with such a young list.

Helpfully they spelt out the 15 players 24 or under. There's a lot of wins in these players over the next ten years.

Yep that is great.. BUT.... !
I sat through 5 mins of how great collingwood is, then fast forwarded through long discussions about melbourne (cant attract a crowd even when they win the flag), essendon (druggies), geelong (cheat the salary cap),, only to see this and within 30 seconds move onto another game.
Did AAA realise that Paps had the highest rated game (according to the AFL contracted statisticians)? Do they realise that the Swans have more supporters than any other club? Do they understand the importance of building the gam in Sydney? Why dont they give credit where credit is due?

If anyone knows how to make a complaint to the AFL, please post a link.
Ive tried but have gotten no where!

More supporters than anyone else , well they don't go

 

[Del198236]

More supporters than anyone else , well they don't go

numbers are approximate....
Swans = 1.25 million supporters across the country
next best Pies = 1.05 million.

Swans average over 30 000 supporters to SCG games.. its the other team that doest turn up.

Always thought that was crap , the Filth would have another million on top of that , it's laughable , maybe we have , but others have more

Sad what footy media has become. Used to be genuine updates about Buddy's bin days, now it's just fashion nonsense.

for their Vic bias then I encourage you to watch " The First Crack" from the 45m to 50m mark.

So Tigers played like undisciplined flogs.

Apparently the analysis is that Hardwick will want "payback" . Payback for them acting like flogs all day? Or something about the Swans celebrating a goal?

They then went on to say what a great side the Tigers have and what a terrific job they are doing making the transition from champions to youth.

Not a single mention that we had a very young side in who withstood thuggery and played the ball and still won.

Just beggars belief. I mean I already hated Johnson and King but this was ridiculous.

If anyone wants pay back it should be us.

Maybe next time Buddy can test how tough Pickett really is because he seems to think he's Mike Tyson with his "ive been in prison I'm so tough" crap all game.

Never a name to that

 

[Cadsky]

Interesting. I didn't expect us to be places that well.

I'll be honest, I was totally surprised at that stat.

I dont get it what's the article about? Because they wore matching black set?

Someone got paid for that story?

I'm in the wrong industry

Need floggish Papley this week.

They didn't even have matching outfits on! Both black shirts - different styles, but both black, that's it.
My husband and I walk every day and both wear black shorts and t-shirts, why don't we get an article written up about us?

 

[wills2g]

Matthew Lloyd described our game against Richmond as a "brave win" on Access All Areas it was more of a "bloods win"
