Sydney under Longmire

[BruceTempany14]

Darn good coach. Part of a very good culture they've built at sydney. massive overachievement last year when most expected them to fall out of finals contention, so conversely overrated this year. But for some widely recognised shocking umpiring he would have two flags as he deserves. Very similar record to scott at geelong in keeping his team in contention over a long period.

Like his Geelong counterpart he inherited a great team .

Like Geelong he enjoys a very powerful home ground advantage that pretty much guarantees wins before the season starts . On grounds that are so disgracefully formatted that the outcomes could be considered perverse .
For all the recruiting advantages and AFL leg ups the swans and Horse have been a failure. And to complain about Sydney treatment by umpiring all I can say is FFS .
Time for the blowtorch to apply to Horse , the same way it was applied to Williams, Sheedy , Scott , Clarkson , bevo and is currently on Dimma .
He is abrasive and over hyped .

It is admirable how Tigers supporters try to ruin every thread on here. Such dedication.

A lot of them are still coming to grips with their downfall I think. Any thread that's not about Richmond, needs to become more about Richmond.

Good side with a bad injury list

Im pretty sure if for example today Demons had to go put Angus Brayshaw

on Tom Lynch, Richmond are probably going to give the Demons a ass whipping

It happens in 2023.

 

[Shane Heard]

He has always had the best of talent at his disposal.
I mean in many ways, it's not too dissimilar to Leon Cameron and his time at GWS.

Sydney right now have an extremely talented list. Gulden, Heeney, Papley, Warner, Florent, Mills, Blakey, Rampe, you can go and on and on.
He's had arguably the greatest forward of the modern era. Not to mention quality defenders and a local academy which keeps on pumping through top-end talent.

One wonders if Alastair Clarkson was at the helm, just how many premierships would they have won by now

I wouldn’t call Tippett great.

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Doing a solid job rebuilding the Swans I think, last night was an aberration i thought, it happens.

Not as if there is anyone available right now that could do a better job than him anyway.

It's a bit silly (and annoying) that after one loss (admittedly a bad one) that any losing coach's future is under scrutiny here (happened last week with Vossy)

 

[Zevon]

Like Geelong he enjoys a very powerful home ground advantage that pretty much guarantees wins before the season starts . On grounds that are so disgracefully formatted that the outcomes could be considered perverse .

Ah this old chestnut again. Somebody who doesn’t realise that the SCG is only negligibly shorter and narrower than the MCG, and virtually identical dimensions to the GABBA. Are those two grounds also “so disgracefully formatted that the outcomes could be considered perverse”?

From the SCG to Kardinia Park — do ground sizes contribute to the end result in AFL games?

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Missing key forwards and backs, obviously you're not gonna go well.

Don't care who was missing. Our mob including the Coach brought disgrace not just upon themselves but upon the game of footy.

We are in the naughty corner.

You'll be fine. Great bunch of kids. That narrow shithole undoes most teams

Ta. True re the kids. Our record at the Litter Box had been pretty good.

I was expecting a heavy defeat but not our worst flogging in 25 years. There are no excuses for last night. Horse threw in the towel sending our best mid to defend a bloke 20 kg heavier. He still thinks he did the right thing!

 

[WillHayward]

We are fair way off the pace and our Academy is not half as good as what BigFooty makes out.

Can definitely see us missing the 8 now.

Except for the Pies. Haven't lost a game in Geelong for decades.

You know as well as i do why they dont play there

Yes. Was interested to see if you wanted to defend it......the floor is open.

Nah. We both want the money that we get from the MCG crowds and in turn we dont go down there and get bent over by you bastards. Win-win

We make more money from Geelong games but I did like the attempt to say it is win-win

For all the recruiting advantages and AFL leg ups the swans and Horse have been a failure. And to complain about Sydney treatment by umpiring all I can say is FFS .
Time for the blowtorch to apply to Horse , the same way it was applied to Williams, Sheedy , Scott , Clarkson , bevo and is currently on Dimma .
He is abrasive and over hyped .

More money but less members get in? I dont know. You're too hard to beat down there so well keep making s**t excuses i suppose

Isn't going to change anyway. But yeah, we get a 'clean' stadium in Geelong so we don't have to share the revenue unlike clubs at other grounds. We would make heaps from a Pies game in Geelong.

Well wait until youre no good and then agree to play there

Didn’t use to phase us....but every team needs bookends - where would Geelong be without Hawkins, Henry & Duncan?

Were you dropped on your head as a child?

 

[J_Moore]

Sydney right now have an extremely talented list. Gulden, Heeney, Papley, Warner, Florent, Mills, Blakey, Rampe, you can go and on and on.

You can’t really go on from there, though. Let alone on and on and on.

 

[My Tilly]

Parker, McDonald, McCartin would be in any teams best 22.
Even Hickey would be the starting ruck for about 9 or 10 sides.

Sydney have ridiculous talent.

 

[MisterMarcus]

According to draftguru, they have the 5th youngest list in the comp.

So if you think along the lines that in 2022 they were well ahead of where they planned to be, there's still plenty of time for this team to flourish.
