Game Day Swans (well, some of them) vs Suns (Preseason)

[Voula]

I recognise this is totally ridiculous, but there really does seem to be a correlation between McInerney's form and his mullet. Mullet = gun, no mullet = dud. Forget a sports psychologist, we need a sports hair stylist.

I told you!! I was concerned last week when I turned the game on in the last quarter and saw that the mullet was gone. It's definitely a thing.

 

[Mister B]

Jordan is almost the player of the team you would want kicking after the siren.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Jordan BOG?

 

[BarneyBent]

Looks like McCartin is looking comfy in the Forward line...

Weird timeline.

Need Snell and Edwards to come on quick

Honestly I've been a supporter of McDonald in defence for a while. I reckon we could see him return as a key defender full time and honestly I think it's a good idea. Even if it's not permanent, it can be a really valuable learning experience for a key forward, and he showed pretty good signs in his games down back last year.

 

[Jeffers]

Jordon looks a lot leaner compared to last year.

 

[TheGoatBaron]

Tonight shows the importance of a fast start

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

I wonder how long it will take Cox to go grey or lose his hair seemed stressed in the box already lmao

 

[joeykanga]

Hanily and Kirk having great second halfs, Adams has done a bit of this and that but nothing outstanding imo would still rather the explosiveness of Corey and Campbell

We just don’t do tough very well.

How are you concluding that

 

[wolftone57]

James Jordan is an AFL Mid. He is effing solid and crucial. Gus was great in half Two

The push & shove.
Not this lot.

I love the expression on Green's face after that free. I ain't gonna do that again. I am gonna beat this bastard. I love it. Anger

Is it possible for a pre-season game to be the best Swans win I have seen?

That was just gutsy AF, with so many quality plays.

Gold Coast were shite.

Everyone impressive bar Hayward, Sheldrick & McInerney for mine.

 

[RilesMacca]

Had uncertainty leading into tonight with Wicks in defence but looked good. Zippy and used it well. Think he'll get a gig next week. TMac presented really well, keen to see how he fares against the Hawks.

Jordon was great tonight, just such a pure footballer. Makes good decisions, liked him on the ball.

Bice and Hanily better as the game wore on, Kirk tackled well too.

 

[TheGoatBaron]

Good to have a win over a team buffed up on Auntie’s soda

Anyone knocking on the door for a Opening Round debut?

Yay, I guess.

Still have no idea how to feel about next week.

Maybe Mcinerney but you can't say that about Rowbottom. I'd never seen Kirk before...I'm impressed. He's alwayys thereabouts and his tacking is impressive. He's tough ...I see early Rowbottom in him. Hanily and Kirk land their tackles and Hanily is classy and involved...has a mature body

 

[Dubai Quacker]

Gus:

• most tackles
• most clearances
• 3rd most disposals

He wasn’t spectacular, but held his own against Rowell and Anderson.

Was it enough? Not sure.

For mine, Jordon was clearly BoG.

 

[Citrus22]

The squad cohesion was there to see tonight, clearly great vibes in the team. thought our hands in close were really slick particularly in the first half.

Wouldn't say a debut but guys who werent best 22 that are pushing would be
Corey Warner
Sheldrick
Campbell


Long shot debut
Hanily

Swans debut
Paton?

 

[wolftone57]

Nothing from Campbell tonight

Bullshit. Did a lot. You just didn't notice. Forwards are not always going to be stars. Amartey wasn't tonight because they had three players on him after half time. What's more, we went Reserves after half time. It took a while for the cohesion to happen. It wasn't until the last that our players got their shit together

If he can clean up his possession a little more (although he did have a lot of the tough ball) then he will be very good. He doesn't need to have 30 touches a week but 20-25 and 6 tackles a game and he will be a valuable cog this year

He is still a gun

Nearly matching them in clearances was impressive given Rowell, Anderson and Witts in there

22 disposals at 46% efficiency......
