What a rabble... we have zero midfield talent aside from Dusty and Cotch.

Absolutely bloody useless

The only players with any ability is Bolton and Vlaustin. The rest are woeful.

Martin has played the worst I’ve seen. Looks like he spent the week on the Gold Coast

Not the midfield which is the issue it's the lack of pressure and liabilities like graham

He is average

Ehh what do you expect. 2nd stringers getting a real crack at it and we look average. Graham, Pickett and the likes are complimented by the a graders.

The match is being played on the Swans terms. Numbers behind the ball defensive low scoring war of attrition. Our forward entries have been lazy bombs so we're playing into their backline's hands with the loose man in defence. Our forwards and half-forwards need to work harder while our mids need to lower the eyes rather than always going the long lazy bomb in hope. The weather conditions are going to make it harder as well for Lynch and Jack to take high marks so our crumbers need to be front and centre to stop the Swans winning it easily at ground level in our F50. We need work harder forward of centre and be smarter. Too much dumb footy out there so far  :banghead.

Probably should've rested Lynch & played another mid in hindsight....(now cue Lynch kicking a bag in  the second half) :shh

Point to them. Too easy clearance from our F50.

The way they are interpreting the HTB today is why I hate it. Punishing the player making the play.

More aimless long bombs to an outnumbered forward  :banghead. Rushed point to us.

We get it back. Aarts to George 40 out. Misses.
