Sydney breaking our tackles too easy.

 

Trac is struggling with the quad. 
They have done a great job tagging and illegally blocking Oliver. Love how the umpires turn a blind eye when it’s Clarry. He will never win the Brownlow the way the umpires hate him. 

The Swan talls are double teaming Maxy much of the time and starting to win the aerial battle.

Get BB playing higher up the ground a little more often to help out.

Instruct the smalls and the mediums around the drop to stay out, crumb, feed and run it back in to a more open forward line with Fritta, Melk & Kozzie lurking.

A lot of basic skill errors, we should used to this pressure footy. 

Jesus christ where is Oliver, Gawn, Petracca, Kozzie and Melksham?

All senior players that have gone MIA.

Brayshaw looks completely cooked with that knee bandaged 

Play the man and you give the opposition extra fire.

I remember in the GF when the little bloke from the Bulldogs stood over Max - not long after that, the game changed

No goal after the one minute mark

Bad memories

-8 in clearances. Not getting much drive out of the stoppage. 

Gonna be a grind. Sydney's fierce attack at the footy is what keeps it rolling their way. Need our mids to lift at the drop of the ball

 

Melksham is doing better than you think,.

Where moving the ball to slowly and getting smacked in clearances. Midfield need to lift big time. 

The swans at 2.57 (out to 2.75 pre game) was outrrrrrrrreageous value

Even if we win (big if at current rate) still outrageous 

swans can win it all this year 

Not playing well and we have lots of guys that are way down on form - Trac, Viney, Melk , Kozzie, Gus …

and a goal down - we need a big lift from these guys asap 

May has been good but honestly to get sucked into Franklin is just so dumb 

Franklin gets a tap in the back & goes down like he was shot. May just needs to keep his cool in the 2nd half & not get sucked in. Umpiring pathetic. Someone needs to clean up that [censored] Papley too.

STOP FUMBLING THE BLOODY BALL!!!!!!!! CHRIST ALMIGHTY 

Midfield need to lift big time especially in the middle 

We lost our momentum with the double 50. No need for may to lose his cool. We were on top. 
 

50/50 game. Swans hard at it around the ball. They’re a tough outfit. 

Swans killing us at the stoppages, sweating on us when we have possession, and building their attack off the turnover. We only win this if we take ownership of the contested pressure game. Just gonna fumble and fiddle our way to a loss otherwise. Longmire is a frankly brilliant coach.

Max and Jackson have gone missing.

Incredibly disappointing performance from both so far.

May started the momentum swing with utter stupidity 

He was stupid 

I count 3 goals for Sydney directly caused by bad decisions, Lever not handballing out to team mate boundary side, turns back into traffic, ball spills Hayward kicks the opener. May getting sucked in by Buddy off the ball 50 m and goal. And Max trying to chip a 20m ball to Ed surrounded by 4 swans opponents. Dumb footy like this is the only thing that stops us winning this.

Need a 2021 third quarter
