What has happened to the Swans?

Maybe not having Rowbotham, Papley, McInerney, Mills and Rampe might have something to do with it.

JUH, Naughton and Darcy are 3 pretty good key forwards.

It has been said of course but do we beat Blues, Lions and GWS last night with Trac, Gus, Salem, Spargo and Smith playing.

100% you need luck in footy.

Not sure about Carlton but the Swans have been loading and most probably in a loading phase now.

Hannebery talked about it earlier today on SEN.

For those that have doubted the efficacy of loading and the effect it has in season then maybe worth  listen.

For those with a closed mind, then don't bother.

Bottom 6 players are no good. Same as any team with injuries.

Jordon with 6 touches. We really struggle without him


Gee sydney are playing at home,  sit on yop & have only kicked the 4 goals.

Injuries are starting to creep up on them to

Yes just updated my post.

Apologies if mentioned: we’re currently 12th. Will be thirteenth after next round.

Any good draft picks at 6?

 

Such an impudent performance from the Swans

-33 contested possessions

-20 inside 50s

The dogs midfield will eat us alive next week 

Certainly looking ominous 

It's depressing seeing the Hawks develop another good team. 

Hawks play such an exciting brand that is great to watch.

Sam Mitchell has them primed for the next couple of years.

Hawthorn are playing very good football, their tackling and pressure has been fantastic.

They haven't made finals since 2018

Should put us behind GCS & Coll on percentage before they've even played .

I think at that point we play MJ, trial Verral, and whoever else and ensure we get Pick 6.

Hee hee - I presume that is not a critique of Jordon, rather than the posters who postulate otherwise :)

Not willing to write a season off after '05 when we are still a reasonable chance, but we'll be sitting 11th in an hour, a game and 18% out of the 8 and playing the team sitting above us on Friday. Yikes. 


Nicks coaching career must be hanging by a thread. Insipid

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
