Swans have had 17 players who have played every game this year while we can't get a bloke on the park.
Doesnt help when some of your blokes cant get the ball, wont lay a tackle and bail out of contests either.....those are non negotiables. Can accept losing on lack of talent caused by injuries but losing by lack of effort isnt on.

I wouldn't be surprised to hear that he's hurt that back again.
There was definitely something wrong, and it wasn't just after that heavy bump near the end
Was thinking much the same, but he hunts the pill and gets zero protection, the game the way it is being umpired is starting to reward the snipers.

I don't mind the tackling, but not when they just flop into the backs of Cripps and Walsh without penalty.

Actually I think the club needs to make an official statement the performance was unacceptable and a review is now enacted before things get worse. I have lost all faith in the Austins, Russells and CFC coaches of this world unless pragmatic changes are enacted.. unfortunately, the pragmatic changes are game plan changing to this broken system. Lets see what happens against the lesser teamn because we have failed miserably against the contenders and no way do we deserve a flag or should be in the window for it as too many accept mediocrity.

I think we gave that one up pretty easily tonight. Mentally it has been a tough 5 weeks trying to beat the best week in, week out with half the side out. Not to mention some blokes that are in still underdone. Tonight, we mentally crashed.

Wish we got the draw against the Pies. 2 1/2 out of 5 in that hard run, given the circumstances, would have been more than acceptable.

If anyone thinks another a journey out to Ed's place will do the trick. Nuh. These issues go much deeper. And it aint the players.

Coaches, footy dept and MC need a rocket ...and an audit of the game plan. Nothing about us has looked convincing and authoritative this year. Moments of brilliance ...when the opposition relax a little, or haven't gotten going yet.
I won't cop that, the first 20 mins was scintillating. That loss was 110% on the players (especially the leaders).
