spirit of norm smith

About 11 listed Dees as 12 unavailable due to injury. Anb to play and needs to show his ability.

6 Gawn 5 Jones 4 Fritsch 3 Hunt 2 Oliver 1 Salem Hore also very good

Respect the champion. Doesn’t have to be the midfielder warrior now. Very dangerous half forward and rotate through as needed.

Big Maxy. Bloody champion.

Umps still a disgrace

Hunt in fire

Going backwards. Can’t see him being any good. No “special ability”

Agree

Half time summary Swans should be 4-5 goals up inside 50 swans 35 Dees 22 good- Jones goals; ruckwork; Melksham, accurate shots at goal poor - Omcd (shocker again!!); fumbles still ; missed tackles, turnovers. Kicking efficiency 64%!! Familiar tale of these proving costly WHO WILL STEP UP

THIS IS RIDICULOUS 12 injured players heading into round 4. Whilst not all are best 22, but imo 7 would be in my best 22 jetta. Lever. May. Kk. Hannan. Lewis. jsmith. Vandenburg. That’s TOO MANY ALREADY in a tough relatively even competition.

It’s crazy how many players are getting injured. We need more cotton wool. Surely KK puts on the helmet like Brayshaw.

Mitch O’Neill. The kid will be a star.

Petty is still a developer. Like some of his man on man work but his agility is yet to reach AFL level. But he is only 19.

We stole Hannan from the Bulldogs. Lots of stories of players “under your nose”.

Joel Smith and Vandenburg going backwards. FFS. They are CURSED. AFL website also continues to ignore Aaron Nietscke season ending knee injury.

Still calling out Petracca as top 10. Keeping the faith.

If we’d kept #6, Bailey Smith would be in red and blue. Interesting to see how he develops.

Should not risk Tmcd. Bring into the Preusssssstermeister.

All good players are welcome. No “dic*%heads though”. Recruiters to be put under the blowtorch also. Taylor also to be accountable.

Best 22 now includes OLIVER. BRAYSHAW. VINEY. SALEM. GAWN. LEVER. HARMES. JETTA. PETRACCA. MELKSHAM. The top 10 Probables - May. kk. Hunt Hannan. Fritsch. Weideman. Stretch Undecided - Tmcd Anb Frost Preuss Bit players - Garlett J.wagner C.Wagner Baker Maynard t.smith Hore Keilty injured soldiers - Vandenburg J.Smith Jkh ageing - Lewis Wagner development - Spargo. Lockhart. Petty Sparrow Jordan Nietscke wildcards - Bedford Chandler Bradtke

Agree. On today’s form, only Stretch would be considered. Preuss definitely in. Petty and Keilty are not quite ready. Frost and Omcd to struggle on. It’s going to be hard without a (fit) May and Lever.

Harsh but fair

Wait until round 12-13

Tom McDonald must be injured. Slow. Fumbled. No 2nd effort. Lost it compared to 2018. No Hogan is now being exposed

Wrap-up of Goodwin presser: Too easy to score against. Bombers Inside 50s - we gave up 20 goals. Skill errors. Basic mistakes. Overloads the defence. 2nd quarter was good. Run and skills. Up and about. Good times can defend. They absorb energy. We gave up goals. We give them energy.
