I have never ever seen a bigger team of over-rated, pathetic, talentless hacks than Sydney were on the weekend (note I said over-rated so the customary moronic response of 'what about Carlton' is not valid).
Sydney clearly cannot stand up to a challenge. They are simply not good enough to play four quarters of professional football. They plainly are too afraid to match a team one on one when the pressure is being put on. It is that simple.
Whenever the game actually gets interesting, and when the prospect of it actually being close arises with Sydney, what do they do? Do they put on the pressure? Do they try to kick goals? Do they at all attempt to actually play a decent brand of football against their opposition? NO.
What they do instead of playing the game of football (something that a professional football team should have the talent to do), is kick the ball sideways fifteen meters to each other.
I would like to know how this is talent.
The answer is that it is not. It is surrendering to the to the opposition, its saying "look, you have beaten us fair and square, we cant be stuffed anymore you clearly have us beat all around the ground, however there is a player fifteen meters behind me who could hold the ball for an extra thirty seconds and run down the clock, I have the talent to do that, but not actually win honourably". No of course, that would require a gameplan, some talented players, and of course some damn balls. Thats something that Sydney couldnt possibly manage. So instead they give up and play kick to kick for the last twenty minutes of the match.
Sydney are the second most undeserving premiers of all time. (Right behind the Eagles of course, I could go on... but I think we all know why)
