Sydney vs Geelong match talk

Can someone explain how the Rooke trip was there, but the Goodes one wasn't?

Cricket

I'm watching the cricket now!

Too many carnies in our side (short carnival folk who are to gutless to have a dip!). We need to really axe many on our list this year. I'd love to see schneider go. Crap quarter from a team with no heart.

And what the ******** is this all about Ball anouncing his retirement!!! YOU DO NOT DO THAT IN CRITICAL GAMES!!! Just ask Dean Laidley. It's not about an individual ffs its about the TEAM!!!! ********!

No more wine for me, or from me.

Yeh and he "slid down"!!!

schnieder hands the ball to hall inside 50 with 3 ready to tackle, youre kidding me.

[NMWBloods]

My god this is phenomenally crap.

So much for the higher skill team some people thought we were!

Lots of fumbles, double grabs, too slow and being tackled, missed targets with handballs, kicking to opposition, leaving opposition players free and not tackling when they are in space.

Need to get Davis and Fosdike in the middle. They and Kirk are the only ones so far that look like they might have some chance of getting the ball forward. Crouch is getting a lot of the ball and working hard - particularly his disposal is so ordinary.

And good call those people who said Geelong had no chance...

I dont understand how people are giving up, with guys like Hall, Goods, O'Loughlin, davis and Kennelly in the team, is it really beyond belief that swans could not come out bouncing for the second half, the fat lady isnt even warming up, COME ON SWANS

[Bleed Red Blood]

This is ********.

[SXP]

We are our own worst enemy!

Coz the ball is very rarely getting past the HF line!!!

The first few minutes was great, then...... It has been a hard slog ever since.

Geelong are all over us, we are struggling to get clean possession.

Some shocking handballs in close.

Absolutely terrible first half - haven't hit a target since MOL's mark and goal early.

Geelong are playing very very disciplined footy and we have no answer - they are playing tight on their man and then moving in front as the ball comes in and we're not able to execute any sort of disposal to our players' advantage.

Will need something special to be playing next Friday night.

this is absolute garbage! If we dont win then im glad because we never deserved it. It just doesn't look like we are a premiership quality side yet. Can u imagine a brisbane of '02 or '03 losing by 20 points at half time to a team who just made the 8 AT THE GABBA...no way. If we cant bounce back in this next quarter then we are not a champion team...simple as that

[ScottH]

At this rate I'll be watching "Dirty Dancing" or "ghost" very soon.

That was quite possibly the worst half of football I have watched - absolute rubbish.

Our skills have gone to the dogs.
No clean hands or neat passes, even when they get into the clear they dont know what to do with it. Colliding with each other, inability to pick the ball up - its just so dissapointing and they seem to lack any confidence.

I am hoping for a revival, I really am
