Autopsy 3 things you learnt v hawks

[The King!]

1- tippett and buddy will develop great synergy get excited, tippett gets match fitness and buddy kicks straight add reid improved run and its scary

2- bird might kick like shite at times but give him an assignment and he is great shut burgoyne down in the last

3- derrickx seems to thrive being in the ruck for like 99% of the time


Things confirmed

A big one hawks fans are on the whole the sookiest poor losers and dumbest fans in the afl respect their club, but their fan group are moronic

 

[Superstar swan]

1.our midfield is still amongst the best in the league, if not th best. Very very sharp tonight .

2.this forward line will be scary good, Tippett is a marking beast and buddy benefitted by not having 6 players hanging off him. As of tonight, teams are not looking forward to playing us

3.sam Reid was great, took some strong grabs everywhere on this field, one of his better games

 

[Indie_]

1. We need to start employing a tagger again. Bird has to be that guy.

 

[JBSwan]

1. Hawks aren't that great
2. Swans can beat anyone
3. Tippett is the Man

 

[robbieando]

1. That is a scary looking forward setup once fit.
2. Pressure, pressure, pressure
3. It Bleeds

 

[ChickenSalt]

1. LUKE F'N PARKER
2. Forward line is just getting warmed up, once everyone shakes off the rust will frighten any team. In any code.
3. The young blokes, Cunningham and Lloyd, have a lot to learn before they can truly hold their place.

 

[Dangas]

1. Good on Derickx for persisting in the ruck. He was spent and good to bring Reid in the last.
2. Hanners and McVeigh are cool in a crisis.
3. Buddy and Tippo can only get better

 

[Keyter]

1> Swans still have a lot improvement in them.
2> Jetta & Parker have really lifted to another level. Kudos to Reid, his flexibility is needed.
3> Swans need a 2nd ruck plus Tippet even when fully fit.

 

[MarkP]

1. Turned a big corner for sure. 2nd "top 4" beaten this year

2. Luke Parker was selected by a large number of us at the start of the year to be a player to take a step up from an already impressive base. He has not let us down, the elite tag might make a appearance in his career

3. Tippett is a beast. Seriously scary large human, can play, suck it Crow flogs just because. Love the big unit and he is so important to us

 

[HPKS]

1.Tippo is very important to our forward structure.
2. Reid will be very important as the year goes on playing that 2nd/3rd ruckman and taking up the role that white played last year with way more talent.
3. Midfield pressure is the most important aspect of our game plan.

 

[swans4eva]

1. AFL.com.au is quickly running out of Buddy Franklin puns

 

[The Swans Blog]

3- derrickx seems to thrive being in the ruck for like 99% of the time

He's been improving no doubt, but **** me he looked 100% done for in the last quarter. Tippet was a no-go in the ruck, he looked buggered end of the 1st.

1. Tippet + Reid + Franklin forward line is going to be hard to stop, especially when Macca, Parker & KJ rotate through
2. Mids are getting back into AA form
3. Looks like Buddy does get nervous. Should have been a comfortable 7 goal win if he could kick straight!

 

[kickthething]

1. We are getting better...the forward structure will work...
2. No one can stuff up a goal scoring opportunity like we can
3. Jetta is a great 'quaterback' who rarely makes a bad decision with the ball in hand

 

[MARK In TIME]

1. Hanners, JPK, Parker, Jetta - ****, they were slick and savage at the same time. Does that even make sense? What ever it was, it was sublime.

2. Buddy, Tippett, Reid and Goodes. Everyone else in the competition =

3. My mum is a gun. Can't remember the last time she witnessed loss so I sent her on a mission to watch Freo and the Hawks, and what do you know, two wins. This is why you need to thank your mum on mother's day.

 

[Membling]

1. negative up first: We played a hawks outfit at a lowish point, then again with our horrendous kicking at goal should've pumped them. Not really learnt but hoping the boys keep grounded
2. Derickx is proving me wrong and I am enjoying
3. You CAN play all of Goodes, Tippett, Reid and Franklin

 

[BloodRet]

I learnt three things and those three things

1. ****.
2. Yeah.
3. Bloods!!!!!!!!!!!!

We're back, baby!



Sorry, I am just excited and had a few too many super drys. BUT WHAT A WIN!!!!!

 

[Number37]

1. Will won't
2. Don't bring a Gunston to a Swans fight
3. If you are going to play shit don't tie your hair in pony tail.

 

[MF]

1. Tippett is the best forward in the game and will be recognised as such by years end
2. Clarkson has nightmares about Nick Malceski
3. We have the cattle to win the flag

[GoTheSwannies]

1. Luke Parker hit beast mode
2. Kurt "value for money" Tippett
3. Malceski loves Hawthorn

 

[Sydney Bloods]

1: fwd line is a beast, at ground level it was pretty clear buddies leg was still bothering him, he stopped and stuttered cramped up on and off through out the match and Tippett what can be said it was marvellous!

2: midfield was firing again, fantastic!

3: derickx is improving week to week suck it haters!

4: malcheski!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Troystenvic]

1. Dawks supporters are arrogant flogs and have been put back in their place.

2. Tippett will be tough to beat one on one. Just leave him in the square all year.

3. We have better depth than Hawthorn. No Hodge No Mitchell No Hawthorn.
We.showed depth last year making a PF with more players out on a regular basis than they have.

3b My 7 week old baby girl wore a red knitted cardigan for the first time tonight and its a lucky charm.

 

[grimlock]

1. Buddy was the difference tonight. Literally. We won by 19 points and he kicked 2.7.
2. 4 tall forwards can work.
3. Parker just continues to improve weekly, amazing we nabbed him for Pick 40.

 

[Tedeski]

This is just a practice run.

1. Hawks are arrogant.
2. Hawks are poor losers starting with their coach in the press conference
3. Hawks are not a genuine top 4 team because we can't beat top 4 teams apparently.

Back later with 3 things I learned about the Swans.

Need to sleep on it!

 

[base615]

1. Tippett is the difference with Buddy
2. Buddy is the difference with Tippett
3. I love beating the Hawks. My favourite game since the 2012 GF

 

[Punts]

1 : Buddy is an extremely smart footballer , the work/blocking he did of the ball at times to allow Tippett etc to make the break was fantastic. He is not a one man show and is playing team footy.

2 : The Richards and Grundy partnership is underrated. They both have been awesome for years.

3 : Our ball use was a lot better and if we can keep improving this we will be hard to beat ( dicky little handballs really put us under the pump sometimes ). Entries forward can still improve a hell of a lot and im looking forward to it.

3 a : Shaw needs to tightin up on his defensive game as he got beaten a little to much ( might just of been an off game but he has Biggs , Jones , Rohan breathing down his neck.

3b : Blues should never have gotten rid of Laidler ( filling Mattners role well atm )
