NAB Round 4 - Swans v Suns

[DLBIA14]

FMD this game has already given me the @@@@s. Why the hell are we such an inaccurate side?! Our whole pre-season has been focused on skills yet I can't see any substantial improvement from last year.

Gary Rohan is limping, and being looked over by Dr Gibbs. And now he has the red vest on

@@@@ it.

I don't think I want to read any more.

Score for Sydney is 3-10 (The Suns are 6-1). Here's a good title for the Swans: "I know what you DIDN'T do last summer: practice goal kicking"

Oh, and Matty Mattner has just come off limping. Rohan has an icepack over his left ankle and is leaving the ground on crutches.

I'm not at the ground, but I imagine the ball is slippery and heavy, and there's a 30-40 km Southerly blowing.
I wouldn't get too worked up just yet.
The worst thing so far is Gary Rohan limping....again.
I hope his leg issues don't become chronic.

Woeful. 3.10 to 7.1 at halftime. Playing ok in general play considering the wet ground but there's really no system up forward as Sammy isn't able to take as many marks. Getting plenty of chances. Not taking many of them.

Rohan and Mattner off? This pre season may be the end of us

[jono2707]

Rohan didn't look good - had to be helped to the tunnel at half time with ice on the ankle.

Sloppy game but we should be ahead - Suns have taken their chances and we've missed a lot of gettable shots. Pyke and Lamb to come on in the 2nd half.

[Lucky Knickers]

Rohan with a bad ankle and Marty with a knee. We are going to need that week off after round 1. Suns press very good. Our fwds struggling to create movement and provide options. Good too see Hanners back. Shaw, Melcho and Parker excellent.

[Mountain Man]

So who has been 2nd ruck in the 1st half?

I am at the ground. There is virtually no wind at all. Also Gold Coast have kicked 7 goals and 1 behind.

[jono2707]

LRT has played second ruck and has looked ok at times. Delivery into the forward line pretty similar to many games last year ie pretty poor...

[top40]

Jed Lamb on for the second half

[jono2707]

Rhyce didn't complete the warm up for the 2nd half and has now disappeared down the race
- looked like a groin or something - he knew something wast right when he came off.
