    Absolute @@@@ing disgrace.

    Run off our feet by a team coming last. Lost at the selection table again.

      Un-friggin-believable.

      Not happy jan.
      Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.

        Absolutely shameful. You can NOT lose to a bunch of junk (Riewoldt excepted) when you are 6 goals up 1/2 way through the 3rd quarter. That was disgraceful.

            What a @@@@ing joke, look who the've beaten and we still get done.

            May be time for Roosy to slip away - yeah I know he won us a flag but we are a long way from the next one.

            BTW who else is wary about Longmire taking over - seems a bit too 'inside' for me.

                    Couldnt have said it better.

                    Goodes and Shaw should be ashamed of themselves.

                      Great win by Richmond. They deserved it. They played harder and were much keener to win.

                      To lose to the team in last place, we don't deserve to make the finals.

                      You could tell by Roosy's frustration on the sideline again that the Swans dropped the bundle in the last quarter.

                      A 37 point turnaround for Richmond and what you would call the Swans grabbing defeat from the Jaws of victory.

                      That will make it very hard for the Swans to make the finals now and if we lose next week, I think we can forget it.

                        If Roosey had any guts he would put his hand up and resign right now. 6 goals and about 12 scoring shots up half way through the 3rd quarter agains the worst team in the league....as they say in the ads.....EVERYTHING MUST GO....staring with Shaw, Mattner and LRT.

                          We have about as much mental toughness as Samantha Stosur.

                          Beaten by a bunch of kids and when push came to shove they made us look even younger than they are.

                          Roosy whistling as he was walking off the ground topped it off.

                          They wanted it more than we did which is quite amazing really. I'm not sure how that can be possible.

                            I said we were s+++ a few weeks ago. Simply not good enough, you cant turn donkeys into race horses I have said this for the past 4 years. LRT had the ball in his hand and had a free man out on the wing for 20 seconds and he kicked it to him when he was marked and they scored a winning goal from it. Thank God Paul Roos is finishing I'm sick of our negative style of play.
                            On paper we should have beaten Richmond easily, I reckon we should try and beat the longest priemership in history, its the only thing we would beat at the moment.

                              Well played Tigers. Lets not do 'A FEDERER' here. Very exciting for them, always good to see a team come from behind against all odds..

                                We have a bit of a habit of doing that when Richmond are on the bottom. It was always a danger game with Richmond winning three of their last four and us being weakened by injury.

                                At the start of the year I did not expect to play finals. If we do make the finals this year it is still a bonus considering that we are rebuilding, sort of. It is better to be rebuilding with a side that has a realistic chance of playing finals than being like Richmond that has been rebuilding now for the best part of twenty years. Yes, Richmond did win today, but with the number of low single-digit draft picks that they have running around in their side sooner or later something's gotta go right.
