Rd 7 vs Brisbane @ SCG - Match Thread

Daniher going into the rooms.

Sorry to say-it’s men against boys at this stage, I’m afraid. Just not good enough so far. Not playing as a team, fellas.

[stevoswan]

We play crap at home....I'm honestly more confident of a win when we play away these days!

[Goal Sneak]

Lions giving us zero space and they have been very strong all game. No lapse of concentration from them. They are here to play a tough four quarter game.

[Foreign Legion]

90 @@@@ing kicks at half time - thats a joke. If we don't improve in the 2nd half we will get done by 10-12 goals.

Also, why the @@@@ is Florent playing in the backline? Makes no sense to me.

[Maltopia]

Genuine question for anyone at the game - is Papley still on?

He popped up in a play near the end of the quarter, too late with a shot at goal and got tackled, lost the ball and free kick to Brisbane.

Lions just too clean and too good in that quarter. They've done exceptionally well to break up our ability to run and move the ball, and we simply haven't got our hands on it enough.

Doubt we can get anywhere near a win from here, but hope for a much improved 2nd half - a very good test to see how we can grind our way back into it against a pretty seasoned and tough side.

This could end up being a embarrassing loss. We are not a top 4 side.

Ignored what looked like on telly at least 1, if not 2 guys centrally with a fair bit of space too. Like many out there, just can't get into it so far.

Dont mind it , one of the only clean ones , that kick across the face from d50 was excellent . I was nervous , happened right in front of me but he pulled it off

Yes thats the only time I saw him. I understand he has missed a lot of footy though.

[Nico]

We are our own worst enemies. Really poor kicking and disposal selection. That kick by JMac was a perfect example.

Those set shot misses in the first quarter are telling.

Again our forwards are playing from behind.

We need to be much harder at the ground ball contests.

Centre bounce clearances 4 to 5. All I see is Brisbane waltzing out of the centre. But again we have our slow mids in there.

[stevoswan]

ABC commentators basic analysis was;

'Swans are letting the Lions waltz it out of the middle down to the most efficient forward line in the league'.....lift mid's!

'Swans, when they do have it, are over handballing and inviting pressure.....which is being delivered by the Lions'....be more direct with kicks!

Hopefully we can address these areas and make a game of it.

[Hotpotato]

Nothing went right , I can’t figure what Reid is doing , was hoping he’d be clunking marks in the forward 50.

[Kafka's Ghost]

I will name our good players:

Mills

Mills and Heeney.
