Too small bodied and slow....

Are we really too small bodied between Oliver, Petracca, Brayshaw, Viney and Gawn?

We might not have won today but we would not have done this.


We certainly need more active small forwards and flankers. Close, Guthrie and Stengle look incredible at ground level. They are always at the right spot and clean 

If i was a Swans fan i would have left 15 mins ago.

Absolute stinker of a grand final day. Hollow in every way and an atrocious game of football on display.

 

AFL website is laughable. Homepage has no link or clickable icon to the match centre of the only live game on. Oh it's just the GRAND FINAL!

Say what you like about the coaches, the players, the game plan, the fitness, we never lost a one-sided match like this - including against both these teams.


Played their GF's before today against us and colliwobbles

On another note, why do all the Primo ads show people not eating their hotdogs or produce….? Lots of groaning, but no ingestion

Really you would have stayed that long.

This has been an embarrassing effort from the Swans. They’ll be mentally scarred from this belting on the big stage. Clubs who get belted in a grand final rarely ever make it back. Plenty of young talent there, but they’ll be mentally shot now.

Do you remember us losing to the swans A couple of weeks ago ? 

This is good in that I’ll have a great sledge for those smug Swans fans (oh the bloods the bloods) - give me strength. A good knock back for their supporters who think their players have more heart than others.*
 

(* I also hate Geelong though)

One thing that Geelong have done brilliantly is that they shift their zone across and setup beautifully down the line, but that is only useful if you block the kick into the corridor and restrict the switch. They have given teams no switch outlet and have defended the corridor. 

I think we got too cute with our defesive structure this year. I heard some players, when questioned about why we let teams switch and just walk the ball up to center wing, say that 'there are times when you want teams to switch'. I guess the coaches know best, but it just didn't look like allowing teams to advance so easily to the halfway mark was going to work for us. Really opened us up to the ball getting brought back into the corridor too.


Watch Rohan the dud kick a couple in junk time to be hailed as a JEELONG GREAT🤮

Worst GF since ‘88 The Swans should be ashamed of themselves today. 
 

Franklin seriously should retire 

My Hate for Jeelong will flourish 

 

Swans lost to Port and Essendon in the back half of the year 2 powder puff sides.

Our club is to blame for this years GF debacle. 

I hate it.

I hate it that this team deserves this.

I hate you Isaac Smith. I hate you Joel Selwood. I hate you Patrick Dangerfield. I hate you Tom Hawkins.

But more than anything, I hate it that you deserve this.

  • 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.
