Didn't realise Brayshaw and Oliver were late outs? 

I swear to god they didn’t touch the footy this game.

We are stuffed. We look completely devoid of any confidence and poise. Lost all our contested ball winning aggression. This season looks gone.

Jones is finished. I’m sorry mate but if you can’t snap for goal on your left from 40 out and even get it to the goal square then it’s time to move on.

[Hellish Inferno 992]

I've lost my stream but sounds like they're out of sorts

Poor mental strength. It's either 'panic stations' or if they've managed to put together some nice play for a while it's 'all good now, so let's ease off'

DO WE HAVE A MIDFIELD OUT THERE??!!

Is Viney playing?

Nah, haven’t seen the real Jack for nearly three years now.

[Earl Hood 5,849]

This is going to turn ugly, we are now playing without a midfield. 

[loges 6,272]

Still not winning ball at the contest. Where's the hardness gone ?

[Rob Mac...... 611]

Thank god Preuss has been there. 

[wizardinoz 2,091]

Swans get 3 soft goals due to our fumbling turnovers. Max keeps putting it down Swans players throats in the middle & who is playing on Alir Alir? Make him accountable FFS.

We don't have any players that have penetration in their snaps for goal.

There fixed it.

[Wiseblood 24,636]

Mids need to lift.  No doubt about it. 

On the flip side we took our chances when we were presented with them.  We haven't done that at all this season, so that was good to see.

Our two way running still needs work, especially with their run and carry from half back.  We aren't playing well, but plenty of players can improve.  Not over yet.

[Diamond_Jim 12,063]

5 goals to 1 from a team that doesn't score heavily

how bad can our defence be

He’s doing a lot of faux tough guy fighting. 

We have awful leadership. 

[chook fowler 18,452]

Hibberd - putrid again

[GCDee 3,091]

Sydney's highest score in 12 games is 93... we give up 34 [censored] points in a quarter. Hore and Fritta only two defenders that can hold their head high

[Lord Travis 10,298]

Our intensity is gone. Our midfield is shot. Our season is on a knifes edge here.

[rufus 933]

We look a bit scared again. Don't want contact and crapping ourselves and going to ground constantly.

Hate to say it but we've reverted to type this season...back to the bruise free Demons. Last year was an aberration on the physicality front (even then it wavered at times). 

[Ouch! 2,088]

Seriously..... we just chip the ball into the 50 with no attempt to spot anyone up... no leads! Can’t understand it.

Horrible start to this game.

Pruess, Max and Hore look ok... that’s about it so far ?

[Deestroy All 14,262]

Letting Sydney score 5 goals for the quarter when they look as rubbish as we do. Well done. 

How long does someone get to correct how easily we get scored against?

Reckon Roos would take the job again?

They watered the ground before the game despite it raining in Sydney for months

Tactic!

Our hands are woeful in the dry,  we're f...d in the wet

[DemonWheels 980]

We’re so reactive.

WHERE ARE OUR LEADERS??

[praha 10,435]

They have almost 110 touches to quarter time. Double ours.

They have 13 shots on goal from 17 entries. 9 scores from 17 entries.

They have double our uncontested possessions. 

They have 13 more contested possessions.

Despite having so much more of the ball, they have laid as many tackles.

That was an annihilation.

To be fair, the kick was on his non-preferred, so it's to be expected.
