Absolutely agree, would have thought steven would have stepped up in Jake's absence, to be fair to the backline the ball is coming in pretty hot from the centre too which always makes it harder.

Grundy needs to lift as well, has looked second rate defensively against two ruckmen who have kicked half of their goals.

When Steven and co are fumbly and out of position, its usually not a great sign. I can't remember the last time i havent seen us not take an intercept mark or even more simply, get utterly dominated in contested marking in our own d 50 in a while. If we all didn't know it already, Rick is clearly crucial to having an organised back 6.

these umpires are clueless, incompetence personified.

Noah anderson just about the only suns player showing a bit of fight in the last, those were two excellent goals.

Tmac's game was superb, crashing the contest and ripping down some contested marks with 4 to go along with it. Thats the tmac we all know and love.

Love Chandler's efforts, works hard in the forward 50 but runs back just as hard in defence. He doesn't want to give up that spot any time soon by the looks.

That looked like a goal to me.

You can’t overturn a decision just because the crowd gets loud.

Eagles fan yawning on screen 😂😂😂

If we ratchet up our own pressure and really crack in and win contested footy, we’ll do much better from stoppage and that should hopefully clear up transition from d50.

They already are in my books.

If we were playing even a half decent team we would be getting killed, could it be the heat that isn’t agreeing with us, nibblers jumper looks soaked in sweat.

This umpiring is genuinely atrocious.

2nd time in my life I have seen us beat the Swans live at the G, gee that was a lot of fun to watch!

It was doom and gloom but that last 8 minutes proves we can play good football when our transition from d50 and entry into the forward line has bit of courage. It was a horrendous performance but theres something there to keep us hopeful and moving forwards.

Also how good was the roar when BBB kicked that goal wide open in the last! Strong showing from the dees faithful tonight!!

Thought Jake Bowey was absolutely excellent tonight as was Mcvee. Gee in the last quarter we were running on top of them, looked like we could have played another 4 quarters, excellent signs!!

gee hunter is a good acquisition

Is the club looking at him as a hunt replacement? Surely they know hunter is not in the same stratosphere pace wise as hunty? Seems highly unlikely the deal will happen anyway.

I was honestly happy to send him on his way and take the picks and move on but that comment of having decided mid year isn't sitting right with me. His performances looked like someone who mentally wasn't committed, and I'm surprised the club persisted in playing him if they were aware that this was coming. I hope he does a Hogan or a Tom Boyd and blows up his career under the weight of expectation and constant partying. Hope we play Freo at the G next year so we can all give him the welcome he deserves. Any chance we could bring back Aaron Vandemonberg for one game just to deliver a hip and shoulder that sends him into next year. Good riddance.

Are we waiting for the weid deal to get done for this to happen, seems like we've talking about grundy for a while for nothing to happen yet. Anyone know if there is anything else holding up the deal?

Not sure how we went from saying we’d at least do really well out of this deal to this outcome. absolute scam job this.

Apparently Liam Henry is no chance to leave freo per his manager... (Sorry if this has already been stated elsewhere)

And just like that, geelong now become the hunted, everyone will dissect their game plan and will play their granny against them every week, they have the weight of expectation. They might be able to handle it fine but I'm glad our boys can have somewhat of a break from the overwhelming expectation we had every week.
