At least Paul Roos will be ecstatic that Sydney had a win.

With the added bonus of a short flight to Brisbane to chat with them about the soon to be vacant coaching role.

Fu**ing pathetic!

If these players ever want to play finals let alone a Grand Final they need to learn how to play matches out rather than roll over and die when things get a little tough.

Can't imagine this going any way other than Sydney running out with a 6-7 goal last quarter . Those tackles, Melbourne would be sore and battered. Gonna be a long last quarter.

Called it.

Also, on 774 they just said Longmire gave the Swans an absolute baking at three quarter tim

Shame about the last quarter.

But anyone surprised about a young side running out of legs after a 6 day break playing the best contested team in the league in the wet at home and gunning for top spot needs to step away from the keyboard.

We're not there yet.

To be fair, this is the first time it has happened all year.

Making at least one change would have helped this.

Just who is on the selection panel? It is The Achilles heel of our developing club right now  

Peter Donegan just said Bernie gone for head high tackle on Parker.

I haven't seen such panic kicking and handball in a football match, we have no plan and no structure, they are playing like a professional football side and we are playing park football.

Looking forward to "all the goals" highlight package this week... the whole 30 seconds worth.

You could fill up another 15 minutes with footage of all of our one metre handballs today.

go jessie, valuable point, we are still in this

I have turned it off 5 minutes ago, something I cant recall doing even over the dark years. Aside from the first 10 minutes most of this so called team have played this game with a complete lack of accountability, smarts, desire or leadership. Big step back when you have stated you are building a team of competitors. 13 swans players have had the same or more tackles than Viney who has our most. Pathetic effort.

That's no excuse.

Playing any kind of sport I despise playing alongside teammates that give in before the final siren goes. 

It creates bad habits, bad attitudes, and a lack of desire.

What an absolutely pathetic last quarter. Too many passengers today, not working hard enough off the ball, nobody wants to tackle, rubbish defensive efforts all over the ground.

And Roos absolutely taking the [censored] not tagging McVeigh. 

Just goes to show that as a team we are still 10 goals behind decent teams. That is a gap that will take at least 3 years to breach, and lets hope other teams don't go past us like they have previously!

A mature experienced team will always do well on s day like today. 

The guys are trying their guts out but not up to it.

Way to predictable all day. 20 points down .... We're not even trying anything to win.

so simple for the the swans to defend against. Worst performance in two years

A record 150 tackles in today's game of rugby.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
