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

    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

    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

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
