Round 9: Swans v Essendon.

[imuninformedtwo]

We did not have a single tackle inside 50.

[Blue Sun]

I think there must be an impact on the field. If we are sitting at home frustrated, imagine how the players feel? It must make you doubt your next move in case there's a fifty metre penalty.

I get the feeling that some of the more senior players, like Lloyd and Florent, just don’t have the heart for it anymore and can’t be bothered.

This Sydney team is seriously undermanned, I know, but I hope there are some discussions happening internally about how to stop the rot.

Well maybe I should be thankful for the AFLs greedy foxtel deal. Just checked the score. Not gonna bother watching this one.

also Florence been passionless and @@@@house for weeks - something wrong with him this year

[imuninformedtwo]

Well done Hayward. That’s all courage.

[wolftone57]

This is so badly coached. Cox is @@@@e. @@@@ him off. All the coaches. They are pathetic. This is not about who is on the park. We have more senior players than they do. It is about coaching. Cox said he was going to kick long forward. He has and how has that worked out? Totally pathetic.

No pressure. Our bloke's playing a @@@@ zone that just breaks down every time.

[Dow]

Dead set Bice the honeymoon is well and truly over

Brown says why was that a free to Hayward? INCORRECT DISPOSAL YOU EFFWIT

Yes I agree- I think there's something wrong at the club. This is very unSydneylike. There is a distinct lack of effort. Is it the psychological impact of the GF? I don't know- but something feels off.

[Dow]

Heeney must stay fwd this half

[Daisi]

Heeney must stay fwd this half

He gives us something there for sure. He's such a great player. Shouldn't that be 50 for a trip? But we can't rely on just Heeney.

If I lost two grand finals in 3 years by not showing up at all I’d be (read: I am) psychologically damaged

Roberts a #^#^# give the easy one hero

Yes....It wasn't fun. Please don't feel too bad.... And maybe, as far as the team is concerned, there should have been some serious analysis after the first GF. How did it happen twice?

As far as this year is concerned. I guess we just have to hope we don't lose many games by over 100 points....and be thankful for what good we can find.

[wolftone57]

This umpiring is effed

[Velour&Ruffles]

What the hell was the difference between the Kako and Cleary HTBs there? @@@@ off AFL
