Why would you follow a club who let themselves down so often ?

    Basically we missed Kennelley - Baz not so much because of his low form this season. The thing is if they get behind, they always think that they can have the 4th quarter catch up, 2 years ago it worked but not now. The opposition are a wake up to that now and as I have said for weeks - we need a plan b - until that happens, we will keep seeing the current mediocre game plan fall apart.

    The continual dicking around hand passes just riles me - week in week out they get too cute with the handball and it always results in a turnover.

    I love the Swans, but the times they are a changin, and they and their game plan has to move with it.
    I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure..................

        At least I can rely on someone to never change their tune. Which is comforting in these troubled times.

        Oooh, i didnt know you cared !

        You are feisty one, but i like you.

          Frustrating don't you think ???
          If you believed that we could snatch the game from 41 points down, its the fault of your own delusional mind. I wanted our swans to fight back and limit the damage (% is gonna be of even bigger importance this year), but never for a second allowed myself to think we could somehow get back in front to steal the game. Don't be so easily fooled in future and you wont be getting so mad.

            I agree....when the last quarter started I just thought lets get some respect back on the scoreboard.

            I am bloody proud they did as well as they did in the last. Pity about the third.

              This is the problem with sport these days. Most people are too immature to understand the concept that someone has to lose.
              Furthermore because you won a Round 16 (or insert any other number here) you are great and wonderful and because you lost you are horrendous.

              At the end of the day, 15 teams will be unhappy. The team that loses the Grand Final will feel more pain than the team which came last. It's part of the bargain. Either you live with it or you become a twisted and tortured soul.

                  Some people are maybe too immature to understand there is no such thing as karma in sporting events either...

                      Surely you're not really saying you would like to see a human being get injured and suffer. I don't that is what is meant by Karma.

                      Hope you're just joking.

                        My bloody oath it's frustrating. I've been frustrated for over a decade
                        I reckon we've had the most number of defeats by less than 20 points in the past decade than any other team (Im going to get an analyst from work to derive that!).

                        The ones that spring to mind are the 1 point losses this year to Ess and WCE and the biggest one was that blasted grand final last year.

                          You should want all players, of every other team, to die of some horrible pox-like disease.

                          Where is your commitment ?
