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: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
