Swans disposal is terrible

Both teams’ disposal is awful… at least the Doggies are marking the thing.

    Anyone else more and more impressed with Nathan Jones' special commentary every game he commentates. Quality analysis with no ego or head-wobble, nothing more nothing less.

    Dogs kicking themselves into trouble... they need to take advantage.

    I still don't get the issue with Weightman.

    Ugle-Hagan has shown some real mongrel, I like it.

    Bailey Smith really does get under the ball when kicking long.

    Blimey the dogs get an easy run from the umpires. ,, Sound off just makes it so obvious because it’s against my opinion of the play

    It's a deliberate tactic.  By moving that far away, they are not subject to the "Stand" rule.

    Of course, it allows their opponent a clear 5 -  10 metre run forward.

    The Dogs coaching team must think it is worth it.  I'm not so convinced.

    Swans are lazy. Their half backs and wings don't like the gut running to create options half forward.

    Swans v Dogs is a horrible game of footy. Kick to kick from one backline to the next, no real highlights, horrendous field kicking and goal kicking, Dogs getting free kicks just for being on the ground.

    John Longmire will give his players a serious bake at half time. They have been deplorable. Worst half of football I've seen from the Swans in a long time.

    So if you move back a meter or two then it Must be worth it

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
