Did the swans throw the game?

[Swanner]

That was the worst game of football i have seen in a long time. So many players dogged it i thought at one stage they where deliberately trying to lose!


LRT just kept refusing to move the ball quickly and all of them kept kicking the ball to the wings instead of getting it in early to the forwards. it happened all night so roos is as guilty as the players for not putting a stop to it early. what was going wrong was so obvious yet nothing changed.

mcveigh just didnt try... he would just amble up to players and let them get their kicks away with no pressure at all. nick davis was never as bad as him!!
All those fans who turned up should get a refund.

We had 8 players who got a player rating under 50.
MOD,Jack,Matthews,Goodes,Bevan,Spida,Hall and Henry (inj).
Goodes has definately been playing injured for at least two weeks.

I thought that their performance was not unexpected.

In my opinion I would trade both Hall and Goodes. Goodes because he is close to 30 and we can still get good trades. Especially in a good upcoming draft.

Adelaide were sublime , The Swans are spooked and have been continually spooked by their ball movement, their precision, their running, and when they try to imitate it, they look like they have two left feet.
Watch the game from the couch boys, it was like watching statues play hares.

It was par for the course when Sydney plays Adelaide I'm afraid. All our recent games have been utter horrors, with the frigging fruit tingles winning nearly every time even on the SCG.

It does make where teams finish (4th -12th) very interesting doesn't it....

Oh I forgot. How silly of me. Draft players with 60 plus draft picks then talk them up into champions. Finish top 8 and we've had a successful year.

I think that critisism is a bit harsh.

After all, LRT has NEVER moved the ball quickly. Its not that he "refuses" to do so, he just cant.

It's a pity he signed a three year contract (last year) then isn't it??

Ridiculous thought.

My only regret was that I didn't watch the Tigers - Lions game on main Event. Looked like it had everything that one, without the feeling of deflation that comes with misguided emotional attachment.
