Game Day 2023 Round 24 Swans v Demons @ 3:30 @ SCG. Thanks Buddy

[GoulburnSwan]

The two week break might be good for us.

 

[The King!]

we went to water

 

[Millky95]

McDonald 1.3
Amarety 0.1
Heeney 0.2
Parker 0.2

All from very gettable shots too. That was the difference

 

[Citrus22]

Papley a huge out with the way he's played the last 6 weeks or so, goals and clearance wise.

 

[The King!]

The two week break might be good for us.

we will be a first round exit playing like this

 

[Millky95]

we went to water

I wouldn't go that far but our 4th term fade outs are pretty poor

 

[GoulburnSwan]

Let’s hope the giants win, couldn’t stand it bloody dogs scraped in again.

 

[swanssince2002]

Horse is going to use Papley as an excuse in the presser, its his out.

 

[bloodsbigot]

Just one of those days.

We'll win the elimination final regardless of this result. Don't care what anyone says.

 

[Jeffers]

Another goalless 4th quarter secured thanks to Isaac Heeney

missing that sitter

 

[lazy77]

heeney not good enough

Wouldn't have made any difference.

This is not good. We've just confirmed to everyone that we're soft as butter when the going gets tough. And it would actually be better if it was an effort issue because you could fix that quickly, but it's not that. We were obviously trying till the end. What that quarter proved is that we're just not quite good enough.

 

[bloodsbigot]

Would you prefer playing blues?

 

[Citrus22]

Need a few more with Guldens level of fitness and intensity out there. Just too many running out of legs lately.

 

[Tedeski]

Heeney not the star everyone says.
When it’s time to put the foot on the throat he can’t.
2 behinds, dropped marks in front.

 

[The King!]

Dont pick a sub you wont use

Horse coached that quarter poorly

 

[Swagjordx]

Terrible last quarter as usual onto the finals now lessgo

 

[Upstart Swan]

Hope someone asks in the press conference why, so many times this season, we get overrun in the final quarter.

Well we probably all knew that deep down before today m

 

[Citrus22]

Petracca and Gulden showing both teams the level of fitness, hardness and skill thats required to compete at the very top today.

The experience of their midfield was obvious to see in that final quarter. Warner in particular isn't playing as consistently with regards to effort, he was out for a while with that injury which might explain why he's still struggling a touch.

 

[The King!]

Given you know we fade, keep it simple and pick a running player as sub

then Actually inject them in the last

Horse *s it every week

 

[Ballarat Bob]

Umps haven't helped but we have lost to a decent team. Had some good passages of play but couldn't sustain it and inaccuracy killed us as well.
Not sure just how good Melbourne are or not but with no one dominating this year they are a decent shout at a premiership.

 

[Olian]

Chalk and cheese our third quarter to fourth quarter.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Should have rested half the team

 

[The King!]

all on the line for the dees you would have thought in the last

 

[melbournehammer]

McDonald 1.3
Amarety 0.1
Heeney 0.2
Parker 0.2

All from very gettable shots too. That was the difference

The difference is not the straight kicking. It’s that when the game was in the balance we kicked one point. 54-37. Then 76-55.

opportunity was there and we got completely outplayed for 40 minutes
