NON MFC: Rd 13 2021

Hawks playing okay. The SCG is a shizen ground for footy. Why couldn't we play the filth at giants stadium ?

[dees189227 12,401]

A great first half by hawthorn. It would help us and get sydney off our backs if the hawks could win.

They probably thought the SCG would get more neutrals (ie: Swans Supporters) through the gates but I doubt it will.

Frostie has actually done pretty well on Franklin.

Would be huge if Hawthorn gets this win.

Look at Richmond's draw from here. They've been given an absolute platter.

They can easily slot into top 4.

Well to be fair to them, they'e already played six top 8 sides, but yes, after this week they only have two more to come.

Frosty. Gotta love his enthusiasm and athleticism, but not his higher cerebral functions. ?

I didn't this would be the leg to ruin my multi this weekend

Free kick Hawthorn in full flight. 21-9 at 3/4 time, Swans getting murdered by the umpires

Razor Ray has put himself on the ball for the Hawks....he is everywhere....

Yes … the numbers are as stated, but how many have been wrong, or even “controversial”?

[Timothy Reddan-A'Blew 5,307]

Anyone beats anyone on their day.

So,

1. Adelaide result not so bad?

2. Beware Dees. Every week.

[Timothy Reddan-A'Blew 5,307]

And who says bottom teams have nothing to play for now the final 8 is 'settled' (looking at you Derwayne on SEN today!)

[titan_uranus 25,045]

This game looks over.

Sydney's next four are Port (away), West Coast, the Dogs (away) and GWS (away). They only have three games left for the season at the SCG (given they had one flipped to last week).

If they drop those four games, they'll be 8-9.

They'll likely win at least one, but this will hurt their top 4 chances.

Yep. It’s a very strong competition.

[pineapple dee 2,892]

Is this result good for us ??

Sydney are not really threatening for the flag but this might give the tigers a sniff of the top 4

That's right.

Starting this week vs Collingwood.

Sydney's 3-1 against the top 8, but they're now 5-4 against the bottom 10.

They also have a great set of double-up games: not one of them is against the top 8 (GWS, GC, Fremantle, Essendon, St Kilda).

[Return to Glory 8,448]

There have been at least two games that Sydney has been lucky to win.

The thing I really don’t get is the 7 commentary alluding to Sydney getting a raw deal with the umps. Please

Swans with it all to do now with a young list, only way is down.

AFL handouts will only take you so far in a short period of time.

This result has zero relevance to us at all.

[dees189227 12,401]

Got to hand it to Clarko. he is a genius they way he plans for games. As some of the media said clarko has had 10 days to plan for this and how to beat Sydney. It is a good win. 

Jai Newcombe 12 tackles in his first game after getting taken in the mid season draft a few weeks ago. There is a kid that just wants to play footy and will grab his chance and make the most of his opportunity.

Spot on.

Top four competition is coming from Dogs, Brisbane, Geelong, Richmond and Port. I'm not at all sold on Port.

Record vs top 8 sides:

1. Melbourne - 5-0
2. Geelong - 4-2
3. Sydney - 3-1
4. Dogs - 3-2
5. Brisbane - 2-4
6. West Coast - 1-2
7. Port - 1-4
8. Richmond - 1-5

Richmond is Richmond, so they should always be feared, but they need to prove themselves against top 8 sides in 2021.

1. Dogs - 5
