Autopsy Swans Vs Giants Rnd 18 2021

[Troystenvic]

Good sides find a way.

Really gutsy effort from the lads tonight.

Took a while to get going but the last 10 minutes of the first half and the second half were very entertaining.

[Jeffers]

Huge second half. Huge win!!
Joey, Hewett, Parker, Papley, Hickey immense!

 

[BloodySwan]

Couldn't watch after quarter time. What an awful performance

 

[Donza]

GWS are really good.
Until they aren't.
They are pissweak.
So glad they were exposed by effort.

Fantastic win. One of best.

 

[Punts]

Fantastic hard fought come back

Found something of hb with Blakey , genuine game breaker

Hewett is a mid

Still not sold on Stephens what so ever

Jmac is class

Heeney is frustrating as

McCartin in form secures back half

 

[BloodySwan]

Couldn't watch after quarter time. What an awful performance

Honestly that was an amazing turn around. Never gave up, changed it up and worked back into it. Real mature performance

 

[hairy biker]

All over in the place in the first qtr, late comeback in 2nd qtr and a dominant 2H.

So many contributors, young to old, some moments of great effort, a fair few moments of great skill.

Stood up and ran away with the game.

Really pleasing in the end.

 

[The King!]

Giving other teams a chance before we get going is an interesting tactic

 

[DavyRed]

What happened with Buddy? The posts here up to half time suggested that he was on one leg and ready for retirement. Then I tuned in towards the end of the game and saw he’d kicked four!

 

[RW]

GWS have not been the same side since the 2019 grand final. Once we got a sniff they just folded. Cameron has to go.

What a crazy game... I think its sorta understandable and a shock when your MVP of the team is going to be out for 2 games. But man what a blinding 3rd and 4th that was. Once we got going, we were playing champagne footy.

Again, our best play is premiership worthy... its all about executing it in September if we get there.

 

[Citrus22]

A turn around like that really says something about the leadership and attitude of the players and coaches at the club. Love this team!

 

[Olian]

Never in doubt…

Papley, McInerney kept us in it and then we eventually got going.

Gulden will go close to winning the rising star.

Defence is much improved.

Hickey’s goal on the run and the build up is as good as it gets.

Kennedy and Parker deserve a shout out as they cop a lot of flac at times but they kept us hanging on in that first half and motored through the 2nd

 

[BloodySwan]

If I hear anyone suggest trading Parker or throwing him into the forward 50 again I'm going to lose it. His drive through the middle was a huge reason we ended up turning that one around.

 

[Swannnnn]

Awesome turnaround! Looking ahead though, the 14 day quarantine thing is just a qld govt thing isn’t it?. So if Vic ends its lock down as planned (although unlikely at this stage), we play freo at gmhba, which means mills and cunningham should be available provided they tested negative?

 

[Dan87]

Hewett unleashed is a nice card to have, Blakey at half back is chef's kiss, Kennedy and Parker no worries, Franklin the finisher, Papley back to form. It's all gravy atm

We have the best flanks and forward line in the comp, super organised down back now. 1 on 1 across the ground is intimidating for opposition no doubt

System and buy in was tremendous

What happened with Buddy? The posts here up to half time suggested that he was on one leg and ready for retirement. Then I tuned in towards the end of the game and saw he’d kicked four!

Sounds like a pretty normal game day thread to me

 

[Kapers]

I'm impressed by the fight back, but let's give credit to the players that kept us in it to half time, theyre the true champions.
Papley and McInerney especially

 

[Ticky009]

Giving other teams a chance before we get going is an interesting tactic

There's nothing like giving the opposition false hope before we cruelly take it away. Psyche them out.

 

[scaryness]

We're gonna win this

Posted at half time.

One of us never gave up

Cheer Cheer GoTheSwannies

 

[Blacky]

The lizard is back

both Macs were great

 

[Jack Lord]

Heeney’s not himself but that tackle in the last quarter
