Look flat as tacks after all the hype last week. Couldn’t play much worse, so hopefully the comeback will be on.

This game and the next double 6 day break on 7 May v Suns were always going to be tough games to win for us. The Dogs are playing with an extra 3 days rest over the last 2 rounds. And it shows.Comment

That late handball by Parker is indicative of how we are playing. All the luck is going the way of the Bulldogs. Ball bounces their way and the ball comes off the pack to one of them. There is not a creative small forward. McLean and Amartey are slow talls. Getting done for pace big time.Last edited by Nico; 31 March 2022, 07:36 PM.Comment

Well, that was a tad embarrassing but I'm strangely calm. I am not surprised by our teams flatness and lack of focus. It was my biggest fear coming into this week...a letdown, oh and of course the umpiring but that's almost a gimme now......with the free kick count currently sitting at 17 to 7.
Funnily, we can still win it but their has to be a huge improvement.Comment

Never much fun to watch a scoreless quarter, or a one goal half. Too many kicks and handballs just missing the targets. Not enough hard running.
But still, I think we're a pretty good chance of coming back. Dogs didn't put us away, since they missed plentyComment

On the frees: it is the inconsistency that gets me. They get a brush on the shoulder, free. Heeney gets clipped around the ears, play on. The free in the square was clearly against Stephens for holding. Just plain dumb. JUH gets a free for holding after clearly throwing the ball out in front of himself.Comment

I thought this was tomorrow night .
Looks like a train wreck .Comment

Our boys just look timid and flat footed. Dogs are structured up well and taking our game away from us, but we're contributing to our own demise plenty too. The only "positive" is that the Dogs have kicked 4.10 so the game isn't away from us on the scoreboard.
Weightman just has to look at the ball to get a free. And that's an observation based on many games against other opposition, not just tonight. And application of the HTB rule hasn't noticeably improved. JUH has possession, drops it cold as soon as tackled by Rampe, but because he throws it away from his body the umpire decides Rampe's tackle has lingered, even though it was just one movement.Comment

of chances. I also think they've been a bit lucky, so many contested balls have just bounced their way. That should even up.
And of course, I'm thoroughly sick of free kick Bulldogs.Comment

Pressure on John now to adapt our game plan to address the forward pressure that #freekickbulldogs are applying.
The whole team seems off synch tonight so far hopefully some home truths are being delivered.
Look to reset and start over in the second half
And again let’s address the obvious poor discipline that leaves us down in the free kick count by 17-7.Comment

McInerney and Papley must come back in. 2 players who create something.Comment

Umpiring like this ruins the game. I agree the inconsistency is infuriating and makes the game a boring fest of free kick bulldogs- seriously 24 frees in a half of football? that's ridiculous it's amateur hour.... I'm also furious that the umpires don't protect our players from dangerous tackles like the one you cited above. That will, one day, be the cause of a serious injury.
We are playing woefully, but I would be playing woefully too if I was in a match being umpired like that. We are furious, imagine how the players feel?Comment

17-7 free kick count. The radio just said 17-5 free kick count. Not including OOB full. Reminds me of the 2016 GF. Though it is the worse game I have seen the Swans played in the last 12 months.Comment

- RWO Forum Rules (PLEASE READ FIRST)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your posts may be deleted, without warning or notification at moderator discretion, for breach of any of the RWO rules set out below. If you have any questions or concerns about post/thread removal, please feel free to PM a moderator or Email us at [email protected]
Do not post your queries on the main boards. Such posts WILL be removed, without further explanation.
Constant breaches of the rules will result in your access to RWO being reduced as the Moderator / Administrator group see fit. RWO uses the vBulletin Infraction System to deal with breaches of the RWO rules. All Infractions have an expiry date. Such an expiry date may be as short as 10 days or as long as 6 months. Multiple infractions, depending on the number of points a member accumulates, WILL result in temporary bans from the site and CAN result in a permanent ban. Please note that some Infractions have an expiry date of "Never" and WILL result in the RWO member being banned from the site immediately.
1) Signatures / Avatars
Keep signatures under 4 lines of standard sized fonts (if you must use large fonts, use just one line) as a courtesy to all users who read the forums.
Do not use signatures / avatars as an opportunity to make jibes at other forum members. This will be considered to be sniping (refer Rule 6 below). You may not refer to another RWO forum member, or quote anything they have written, without permission from that member. Using an anonymous tag does not make it acceptable. If quotes are not removed, we reserve the right to remove them, without notification. If in doubt as to whether something is acceptable or not, don't use it!
2) Spamming
Advertising for personal commercial purposes is NOT permitted. Placing links to sites that other users may find of interest / personal websites is acceptable within reason (ie constantly posting links will be frowned upon).
3) Deliberately avoiding the RWO swear filter
RWO is a site that is accessible by Swans supporters of all ages and walks of life. A swear filter is in place to mask offensive words and phrases. This swear filter contains offensive words and variant spellings of offensive words to stop you from deliberately avoiding the swear filter. Do not attempt to avoid the swear filter through alternate spelling of offensive words. Do not attempt to avoid the swear filter by devising systems to fool the swear filter in its recognition of offensive words.
4) Inappropriate Language / Excessive swearing
RWO is a site that is accessible by Swans supporters of all ages and walks of life. Moderators will let some minor cases through. Anything deemed to be of poor taste or of an offensive nature may be removed at moderator discretion. Consider all members when posting; what you think is funny, not all members will feel the same way.
5) Trolling / Baiting
Deliberately posting on threads in an attempt to stir / bait other RWO users will not be tolerated.
6) Flaming / Sniping / Abuse / Insulting other members
If you have to have a go at someone personally, take it off the boards. Everyone else doesn't need to see your hissy fits. Remember, "Play the ball, not the man". This includes spouses or partners. If you don''t like a post, don't flame, snipe, abuse or insult in response - it makes the job of moderation much harder. Report the post through the forum reporting mechanism (click on the Triangle with the exclamation mark) and let the Moderator / Administrator group deal with it.
7) Legal issuesa) The Moderator / Administrator group will keep a very close eye on threads discussing rumours or anything that could be potentially libellous. Moderators and Administrators are not interested in the chance of legal action regardless of how small - if deemed that there is ANY threat to RWO potentially, we will come down hard on it.
b) Due to potential issues of copyright infringement and the potential legal implications, posting of complete articles is NOT permitted. If necessary, post a link to the article. Where appropriate, you may quote sections of the article to aid in discussion.
c) Due to potential issues of copyright infringement and potential legal implications, posting of links to "live streaming (of AFL games)" and "AFL content" sites that are not AFL endorsed is NOT permitted. Posts with such links will be removed immediately and infraction points will be issued.
d) Freedom of speech does NOT = freedom to slander
8) Racial / Sexual Discrimination / Villification
It is not acceptable for members to engage in racial and/or sexual discrimination / villification. It is not acceptable for members to use terminology in describing race or gender in a derogatory manner. Discussing and disputing the views and opinions of other posters is acceptable. Personally vilifying or abusing others for having certain characteristics, or being a member of a certain group (or because you think they're a member of a certain group), is not. This rule shall apply to any post attacking race, skin colour, ethnic background, gender and sexuality.
