Autopsy Swans vs. Blues R3 2019

[Jack Lord]

We’re always garbage at the start of the year. At least today we showed some signs. Moving in the right direction.

 

[SBD Gonzalez]

I despise his name. I know many of them who are called Wilba. He himself and his team mates seem to have acknowledged him as Wilba. So he's Wilba.

You speak in riddles Sensai.

Carlton are pretty crap

We won by 3 goals

Just my opinion as of right now neither are much chop

Agreed. We serve up today's effort against any of another 12 or so teams and we're all dissecting another frustrating loss right now.

Nice to get a win and a few positives regarding individual performances but we're a pretty poor side right now.

 

[Banyo Bloods]

Kennedy was great his strength is amazing at locking a ball in with a tackle.

McCartin did pretty well and Thurlow held his own.

Doesn't look like being a great year so I will happily take a few wins along the way.

The hyped Port team only beat Carlton by 16 points, on their home deck. We're with the pack, but probably not the pack we want to be part of (West Coast and.... umm....)

Nice to get the points but i am no more optimistic about our fortunes this year than when i was before the game.. carlton troubled us and so far this year, they are a level atm

was pissing with rain

So in theory it should have been easier to beat up a very young Carlton team.

I think we're on par with the teams like Port, Adelaide, Bulldogs, Essendon etc. We'll be very hit and miss this year and hard to get a read of. If we can at least play differently I wouldn't give a shizen about the ladder

We always look s**t against the Bulldogs though. We also always look s**t at the SCG where we lost last week. Just like Collingwood looked like s**t against the Eagles and have done for a while now, GWS looked s**t anywhere but NSW. Business as usual on those fronts.

Agree we look the slowest, but definitely not the worst so we're going alright considering I still think there's a confidence problem in this group atm

we always make excuses

 

[caesar88]

we always make excuses

I actually think it's the opposite of excuses Kingy. There is no excuse for continuously looking average against a mediocre Bulldogs team, and there's no excuses for continuously looking lousy on your home deck.

As usual the AFL keeps on ******* us over... back to back away games on a short turn around.

Of the teams yet to register a win this season, Melbourne and Norf have been the least competitive, and the Dees were flogged last week by the Cats, so there should be no excuse for us not to win next week.

s**t!

Florent should be dropped.

 

[Mick Oxlong]

I haven’t read anything else but this is my autopsy. Obviously a couple of forced changes next week and that’s probably for another day (well, it probably won’t be). McCartin, while serviceable, didn’t work. Ronke was down, but he was eventually important (c’mon that disallowed goal was not a free...umpire joke again). Parker way down but great to have a win where he doesn’t play well. Only noticed Mills when he entered midfield area (irony) and Aliir couldn’t catch a cold!

Thurlow, Heeney (he can be devastating if he doesn’t go missing), Reid, Sinclair and Lloyd after his s**t start were good. Jones in the middle was absolutely dynamic (BOG) and in a tie, I cannot praise the game of Kennedy enough!

 

[Mick Oxlong]

Florent should be dropped.

I mean this with great respect but * off!

We’re the slowest team over 100m!

 

[JZ_Skitzo]

tier 2 on the wing must be pricey to sit in?

Access to Medallion Club. Think it's like $80.

 

[Mick Oxlong]

It was good to see Newman finally hit a
Swan on the chest with his elite kicking!

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Rose after a BOG performance will be in for Hayward, hope we dont move Jones back to replace McVeigh.

Rose again...please for the love of goodness sakes not again!
