Round 3 - Swans v. West Coast Game day thread

[31 hard at it]

Jetstar!!!

A seriously great goal.
Running off the back of the square .. outpaces several eagles along the way .... takes a bounce and kicks from 55 !

Goal of the week .. not one of those freaky angle lucky shots but a genuine hard running get and goal.

Now we need him to do it again and set up play with some efficiency in his ground kicking.

Everitt is not a tall key defender by any stretch of the imagination. Not strong enough, poor body positioning and seems to shy away from physical contact. It's Jason Saddington all over again.

Will be out of him and Dangerfield.

Wow how the hell are we in front? Our skills are absolutely @@@@ @@@@ @@@@.
Grundy has had a deplorable start to the year and his skills hand and foot is shocking.

Turnovers are killing us and midfield is getting smashed. My hobby horse... centre bounce clearances close to nil.

ROK is simply giving the ball to the opposition and Kennedy's kicking is disgraceful. Any chance Hanners kicking through the footy instead of toe poking it to the WCE.

Sam Reid grimaces after every contest. Methinks he may have been hiding his shoulder injury a bit...

There was a shot of the Swans locker room at half-time , I saw Reid talking to Dr Gibbs and pointing to his right shoulder

Half Time on TV is basically an ad for the Eagles.

[Swanner]

we are way in front of tackle count it is just our skills stopping us from winning it at this point....when does rohan come on and who goes off?

[lwjoyner]

backline pathetic. skills terrible wc must have kicked 3 or 4 from our mistakes. aj not strong enough to play on these type of monsters, should have played either seaby or pike to give mummy a break. White isnt a ruck man maybe he should be sent back and we try to manufacure our goals from moving the ball quickly. i can see a 4 or 5 goals defeat. hope i am wrong.

[Blood]

My God we are awful tonight, with Grundy the worst on field.

[RogueSwan]

one of the commentators said it best, our defence has no structure, we are playing too much one-on-one and not as a team.
It could be that we are playing two (relative) newbies in the back six in Johnson and Everitt and they are just not getting the structures right, yet.
Frustrating to watch.

I'd like to see white go to Lynch. Goodes to the middle. OKeefe forward

I don't know how you can single out Grundy, he is doing alright. Reid (I am loathe to pick on a promising youngster) has done nothing, none of our mids (Kennedy is surprisingly poor) are playing well except Smith. Too often defenders are easy targets for fans.

Bevo bevo bevo

Those @@##!! flickering ads at Subi are driving me crazy.
