That was one of the worst loses I have seen for a long time, unfortunately there are players believing there own press, not going to name them. Except for a couple the rest of the team over the past couple of weeks has not played as a team. No blocks, no intent to go in and get the footy, or put...
Great win in really tough conditions. Very even effort across the ground but what was pleasing was the pressure brought on the Suns from the first bounce. They were shell shocked early.As everyone has said who went to the game the temperature and humidity was stifling. 4 points on the board on...
Great win by the Swans dominated all game & a true team effort. Missed a lot of easy goals so it could have been a blow out. One to go then onto the finals.....could we win it you betcha...
Agree totally that when the zone defence fails for periods in a game the players should switch to man on man, stem the tide and revert back once we take back control of the game again
Haven't been posting this year and now I know why. This year alone Parker is alway one of the highest rated players for score involvements. As Captain of a young side he is consistently make sure that the young players are in the right space while always being the one to lead by example in how...
Great news he has led the team brilliantly the last couple of years and makes him a Swan for life. If the Vic media ever looked North occasionally they would see he is one of the best captain in the league. Now keep going and sign Dawson and the others , have a big preseason and take the next step.
Really disappointing loss as everyone has said, but what a great year. Exciting footy, great young players coming through, older players leading from the front & a great ruck find. We must do what we have too to keep our top uncontracted players. The loss could in the long run be better than a...
Great win by the boys, a total domination. Hope Mills is good to go next week. I was one that said we would make the finals and put some cold hard on it. Always thought the games we put into some of the young boys in the last few years would come to fruition.
Finals are a totally different...
Agree with jmac having a good stint in the middle, the main issue I see is our recieving mids tend to move towards the drop of the ball rather than staying on the outside and waiting for the extractors getting it out to them. There were a number of times a bomber outrider did hold position and...
A great game, everything on the line for the Bombers and our boys just turning up wherever the AFL want us to play. Took a bit of time to settle down and then put them to the sword. Nothing better than a bomber flame out. There is real belief in the system which suits our group & its only going...
Back from the game and another solid performance. Blakey was dominating in the first half, took a hard knock in a pack and went off. Freo speed early was causing problems & Heeney's mark was sensational. Gulden has great game awareness. Parker, Kennedy Hewett & Hickey just keep on leading from...
All young sides need a breakout game that sets them up, not just for the year but for the seasons to come. Confidence and belief are important to ensuring the group moulds and obtains a swagger that other sides fear.
The Tiger have that at the moment but a win by the young Swans will set them...
What a great win, everything to be said of the young boys has been said but what a team effort. They worked selflessly for each other and when you add that to sheer talent look out, you have a team capable of doing anything.
I think there will be alot of experts surprised by the young Swans this year. A bit of experience to lead this exciting group of young player. A few that now have good game day exposure. So it will come down to injuries, the ability to be selfless for each other & to score closer to 100 points a...
All in all a good development year. We started off poorly with the kids playing just to get a kick and establish themselves. As the year went on and injuries happened we saw the young guys slowly develop an understanding of a game plan and what team work was required to be competitive.
Mc...
Overall I thought it was was a pretty good effort by all. The young guys craked in, Kennedy and Parker dominated the middle. Armity showed enough but might have found the pace hard as the game went on. As for Reid he did his job. Very wet night got to contests and brought the ball to ground...
Sorry 88 but if you watch the game after 1/2 time Parker is out of the middle for most of the 3rd qtr only really coming back in to the centre in the last couple minutes in the last. I found it strange that after getting the side going in the first half he spent alot of the second half down...
Really enjoyed the game, the young guys are learning to work together and not just chase kicks as was happening at the start of the year. Strong work rate, great plan into and against the wind. Melbourne fell apart very quickly due to the pressure and us constantly trying to move the ball...
A really great win by the boys. I was surprised they could keep up the pressure and run all night but they just kept on going. Parker, Rampe Lloyd Rowbottom sensational. Melican played a great game as did Sinclair. More importantly all the young blokes cracked in all night. It looked like they...
Wow what interesting reading on here, kept me entertained over the weekend. On the game we tried to continue the attacking take on the corridor brand of footy which is good to watch . We turned it over a number of times which was costly, failed to capitalize on a dominant 3rd qtr, then had a...
