Autopsy Swans Vs Don's Rnd 16

[Troystenvic]

A really ordinary game.

Season over

96 year drought continues.

Didn't take our chances and took 2 advantages inside 50 for 2 behinds.

Missed some easy set shots

Forward line look at sea.

Florent Ronke Rose McCartin all ordinary.


AA was good in the ruck

 

[wills2g]

Florent needs to be traded out of the team. A game here or there is not good enough.

 

[TheMase]

Skill execution was the main issue today.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Change the title to defeated by umpires.

 

[Superstar swan]

Ronke to the twos
Rose just holds his spot.

Aliir was incredible today, huge influence even though he was being shafted by the boys in green

Disappointed in reid..they are the games where he needs to take control as the senior player up forward..came up short

 

[TheMase]

Disappointed but also somewhat relieved.

That probably ends any real chance we had at finals where we wouldn’t have a huge impact anyway. We need to keep the likes of Rowbottom in the team and get some games into them in preparation for next season.

 

[swannyfan]

Robbed.

That's all.

Reid was okay juggled 2 crucial marks that could of been shots at goal but otherwise did his role.

 

[mtooler]

I hate when they give me some hope and then dash it.

Would be nice to get a structure and kick it to Reid one-on-one. I don't think he had a stat in the 4th - and was absolutely nowhere to be seen until thrown in the ruck with 5 to go.
Kick the fukn ball to our best forward just might be a plan Swans!

 

[S120]

God, that was frustrating. Our execution going forward was woeful and we wanted way too many easy opportunities. Papley, Blakey, Hayward all main culprits.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Rowbottom is the find of the season

Goes down the other end and they get 2 goals from ridiculous frees to keep them in the game

 

[S120]

We had a very hard go of it by the umpires.

 

[TheMase]

Rowbottom is the find of the season

Amazing work by our recruiters to pull off the live trade and land both Blakey and Rowbottom.

Must be a chance of a rising star nomination.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

We must be the dirtiest most undisciplined team in the league.

 

[Donza]

I don't think we play the MCG well..
*obviously

 

[SilentHunter_]

So we have to play the perfect game week in week out to win? Because that’s what the VFL is asking us to do with this umpiring. But then again I don’t think they give a **** about the Swans think so why bother.

 

[Kummerspeck]

We had a very hard go of it by the umpires.

Yeah, one of those games where technically the ones against you are there (except some of these ruck ones, holy moly) but you don't get them. Frustrating, but like you mentioned earlier, pissing easy chances against the wall was worse.

 

[Superstar swan]

Reid was okay juggled 2 crucial marks that could of been shots at goal but otherwise did his role.

Dont get me wrong..he was marking strongly and made some crucial plays...but without buddy and a young forward line id like to see him be a bit more dominant..take control...command the ball

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Holding the ball on Blakey where he just grabbed the ball and got his head driven into the ground???
Allir decision against Mckernan wtff??
Tippingwuiti(whatever the **** his name is) "push in the back"
Non 50 against Dawson being crunched in the back.

Only just

Tackles in the last

[kickthething]

Umpiring played a role.. no doubt.. should off won despite the very inconsistent frees that came from nowhere were indefensible

 

[lazy77]

I am absolutely convinced that had the umpiring been fair, we would have snuck home. It was a pretty poor game by us, but this is all on the umps. An utter disgrace. This comp is a ****ing joke.
