Round 16: Sydney v Hawthorn

Six goals to Stevic. He's just unstoppable.

We're playing much better than I thought we would. I think we can keep the margin below 100.

I think the commentators misuse the term 'un-Sydneylike'. The 'un' is unnecessary.

I am fascinated to see how we respond from here.. My 36 point loss prediction is looking very optimistic..

Hawks own all the open space , and they drill it to each other as if the Swans are at home on the couch .
That's what they (Hawks) did in the warmup .
Why haven't Sydney learnt anything .

Humiliatingly pathetic!

Almost want to convert to an optimist ... but the realists saw this coming ... we have very little to offer ... and real pressure / skill is exposing us like the all so rans almost did ... the dreamers can cry all night if they want ... don't expect to see half time ... what an insipid performance ... not one clean bit of play.

Does anybody know where Buddy is playing? He doesn't seem to be in the goalsquare

horrible performance by the swans

I thought they said the MCG.

Our disposal is a disgrace.
3 horrid disposals inside OUR 30 metres for turnovers and goals to them.
Reid- 3 disposals and slaughtered the lot. His kick out on the full was deplorable. Very poor skills. Gets a mark in the middle and just fluffs it and by the way took a week to move it on, when there were 2 other players around him he could have handballed off to.
We had a chance to put on some scoreboard pressure but nup, LLoyd ran sideways in his run up and that's where it went from 20 metres.
Brandon Jack starts in preference to Jones....against Hawthorn, spare me.

Just so you all now the quote. "We just didnt work hard enough" post match from the coach. Plenty of effort but poor kicking and decisions

**Daisi** · 18 July 2015, 07:58 PM

what's frustrating is that we have the talent out there to play so much better...but it doesn't seem to gel...

And the holding the ball decisions seem to be a bit selective

Did we walk under a ladder?? Buddy kicks a goal and it was touched off the boot!! Even still how close were the Hawks players to Buddy??

Round 16: Sydney v Hawthorn

Bird's been subbed out for Jones too.

The Buddy touched goal was a joke. It should have been a 50m penalty for the three players standing that close to the mark.

You know, we hear the same crap from McVeigh and Jack every time and it means nothing anymore. All talk.

**WauchopeAnalyst** · 18 July 2015, 08:06 PM

The different is coaching. Negative Longmire. Positive (but at times dirty) Clarkson. This list WILL NOT IMPROVE with this coaching team, about 5 or 6 of them. Have to change something unless we are happy to just play finals and waste the next two years.

Totally agree! We show absolutely no guts when the chips are down.

Well there's definitely a problem somewhere...could be coaching, could be psychology....there's just this inability to ...play football? I don't know....it's the lack of skill, the lack of positivity and the lack of leadership on the field...something is definitely wrong with the club...the last time I felt this way was when Eade was in his last days....
