Match thread: Swans v Dockers.

2 HTB missed right in front of goal. Come on umpires be fair!

Ok, Cunningham was very lucky not to be penalised there. Still doesn't excuse the obvious mistakes.

I have a feeling this will be our wake up call. It doesn't look like we have it in us today...

So the big four of Grundy, Heeney, Warner and Gulden having stinkers so far. That’s the bad news, but could be the good news.

But our defence through the middle of the ground is just as much of a problem. Pretty thin.

PS: Thank god for McLean.

[Mel_C]

Even though we played better that quarter, we didn't make up any ground.

Our movement through the midfield is non existent. Too many errors have broken the chain. In contrast the Dockers midfield is in synch.

Too many broken tackles. Our pressure has to lift. As Heeney said at halftime, we have to get dirty.

They have scored 7.1 from the defensive half. Wow that is unswanslike.

This will be a good test as to how we respond. We need to get our mojo back.

Not as chilly at the game today

Strange weather and a little warmer than expected at the ground.

But there is a chill running through the Swannies

Come on lads

Afterburners ON !!!!!

Ps very well coached the Freeo structures in defence and also that last short pass into areas we are not zoning into …….plus a significant amount of the ball ups we have been standing outside and pushing the Freeo guys in but it ain’t working

Not sure what is wrong with them today. Missed Kicks, missed handballs. Also the backline is allowing them to be meters on their own. I hope we see something in the second half!

[troyjones2525]

Yeah McLean one of the few to be able to hold his head high.

We could really use the experience of Mills and Parker to steady the ship. I can’t wait until they’re available for selection.

McLean and J Mac only winners so far - Rowbottom needs to go back to what’s made him a standout.

[The Big Cat]

Any arguments about whether Mills and Parker will fit in are now moot. Straight in for Wicks and Adams for a start.

[Mel_C]

Cunningham subbed off with hamstring tightness.

[cruiser]

Chad Warner isn’t even trying.

[Dow]

Warner very very weak

[i'm-uninformed2]

Rubbish umpiring but what was that crap from Chad dawdling onto that ball.

[Mel_C]

We finally score a goal and then Adams gives away a downfield free. It was soft but still.

HTB non decisions have gotten worse. Unfortunately we have been on the wrong side of it yet again.

That non effort by Warner was inexcusable. He was barely jogging to the ball and it was defensive 50!

McLean has been great today. 6 contested marks so far.
