Swans vs Dogs: In-game hobnob (aka the game day thread)

[Melbournehammer]

i agree i think its a function of trailing and a reluctance to run off when the ball is turned over so badly

[Dalai Lama]

another belting on the cards?

[Damien]

Goal after the siren to Lake. Margin 29, we are inline for a thrashing today. Not looking good.

We're being outplayed so Bulldogs deserve that lead but that HTB against McVeigh was a shocking decision.

[Cant turn right]

!!!!!*&%$#@

[tasswan]

They are playing worse than last week

Thank you Razor Ray.

[Q...]

By my count that's 4 goals to the dogs from erroneous free kicks and 2 taken away from the swans.

[Bas]

I tipped Doggies by 46 and I now think I was being conservative.

Down by 29 points at half time, I can't see anyway that we can claw our way back. All the players out make us look a very second rate team.

Brace yourself for another loss and percentage hammering.

Hall to kick 7 or 8.

Match committee 14/03/10: "why don't we ever try Jude in a key forward position?
Match committee 15/03/10 3pm: "oh yeah - that's why....."

Don't understand this, probably our best forward at the moment.

Umpires are killing us.
They have a vendetta against us.
They have secret meetings and decide to award frees against the Swans and to only pay frees to teh Swans when they are blatantly obvious.

Or maybe something else.
MAYBE the Swans are giving away free kicks?
Honestly, you'd think from reading RWO that the Swans play like angels and never infringe and that it's all vendetta stuff.
Maybe the Swans shoudl work on training NOT how to infringe so much.

I was of the understanding that a forward should be able to kick a goal from an easy set shot.
Let's be honest - Jude is an average kick in general and a shocking kick for goal.

we are winning 0% contested football.

They are giving away many stupid free kicks, but that doesn't mean that all that are payed against them are there.

I agree but there is no consistency with the decisions
