    Scape Goat The Lid: Where is it at?

    Or even any currently unscheduled games. Most don't realise that after trade week last year, I stole the lid, and can't remember where I placed it, so the lid is indeed off, and it will never EVER be going back on.

    VFL 2026 Swans Reserves

    I think he played slightly more than a half, but Mills' VFL return last year wss on very restricted minutes iirc.

    The post might have come off as a bit harsh on Ronke, his 2018 season was very good. It wasn't supposed to be a critique of Ronke, but rather praise for Rosas. I don't think it's inaccurate though. Ronke was not capable of using the ball around the ground as well as Rosas has this year. Which...

    Autopsy Round 8 vs Melbourne Demons

    It would send a terrible message to the reserves to bring someone else in to ruck and have it be anyone but Ladhams, who has been unbelievable in the VFL this year. McLean has been very good too, but as a forward – not a ruck. He's also not a particularly good ruck and won't give us much more...

    I'll concede I was guilty of this – I was glad we kept him on as depth and for what he'd bring to the VFL side, but wasn't sure he was still up to AFL level. Glad to say I was very wrong. I think he's being helped by the fact that we have other key defenders to rely on now, and an injury to...

    Is Old Music Killing New Music?

    In the last few years, there's been: Billy Woods' Aethiopes and Golliwog. Both masterpieces that stand up against any hip-hop album ever released on lyricism, structure and production. Ahmed's Giant Beauty. 5x amazing 45-minute free jazz performances that I can listen to beside Miles Davis'...

    Player Watch #35 Charlie Curnow

    The criticism really perplexes me when we've scored 100+ every week other than the Hawks game and 120+ in half of our games. If Charlie isn't kicking goals, Amartey, McDonald and Rosas are. We have plenty of avenues to hit the scoreboard, which is exactly what we should want. The attention...

    Player Watch #10 Malcolm Rosas Jnr

    Probably since Ronke, and it's crazy to think his 7 goals were almost a decade ago. Rosas is a comfortably more talented player than Ronke though. Before Ronke - McGlynn. And Paps is a comfortably better player than he was in McGlynn's last season. I'd say it's the best small forward combo...

    Autopsy Round 8 vs Melbourne Demons

    Agreed, and he's not going to have to go up against a Max Gawn that's spent slightly more than half of the game up forward (Heath had 21 CBAs compared to Gawn's 19 – plenty of which came in the last quarter) most weeks.

    Autopsy Round 8 vs Melbourne Demons

    An average score of 118 and 100+ points in every match other than the Hawks game. The scary thing is I think there's still room for improvement – the delivery from our midfield hasn't been particularly great since Gulden got injured and the spot that has been occupied by Cootee and Cunningham is...

    He's not just killing it with the footy, his tackling and defensive efforts have also been brilliant. Particularly since the Suns game. Papley attended 11 centre bounces today. I'd love to see Rosas take some of those.

    Analysis 2026 - The Way Forward

    I'd do exactly what JHWF did but would keep Lloyd and would force Campbell to win his spot back. I've rated Lloyd's season.

    5. Rosas 4. Grundy 3. Heeney 2. Amartey 1. Rowbottom YP. Roberts Mills a bit stiff, but had some shocking moments so couldn't justify giving him votes.

    Shit kick yeah but why was there nobody there for him to kick it to? There's 3 mins left, we're 2 goals up, and he has it on the wing. We should have had a pack of players down the line and we didn't have one.

    Game Day 2026 Round 08 Swans v Demons – 3 May @ SCG 3:15pm

    Nah the momentum absolutely came from a throwing motion, not his fist. But that's never paid, so it's annoying the umpire chose to pay it there.

    Well done from Lloyd to tell Blakey to **** off there. Frustrating because it's there but never paid. Latrelle had one in the third that wasn't paid.

    Game Day 2026 Round 08 Swans v Demons – 3 May @ SCG 3:15pm

    Once people have made up their mind on a player's game, like Bice with the first quarter, it's hard for them to change their mind. E.g. Mills has made 3 dumb errors this quarter but none have been mentioned. He had a great first quarter (and mostly a great game, in fairness) and Bice had a...

    We've missed McCartin today. His intercept marking and ability to read the play makes us so much better.

    He and Sheldrick are so important. They're less damaging than our other mids, but also much better at arresting momentum than our other mids.

    Yeah it shits me when players that have the distance hand it off to him. Happens so regularly too and rarely results in a goal.

    Curnow is averaging 2.7 goals a game this season. The most McLean has averaged in a season is 1.3. Curnow's average of 4.7 marks per game is also higher than McLean has ever averaged.

    Yep, but glad we gave him another game, and hopefully we give him a few more. Also wouldn't mind Dattoli being given a few games either. Just really want as many players getting a crack as possible so we feel less inclined to take risks on unfit players come September.

    Game Day 2026 Round 08 Swans v Demons – 3 May @ SCG 3:15pm

    That wasn't an advantage though – it was really frustrating. I like that since the Hawthorn game that we haven't kicked it to Curnow when he's being double teamed (at least for the most part). It makes the rest of our forwards more dangerous and helps allow other players to get off the chain –...
