Anybody watching the AFL GF?

Its 3 quarter time and the swans are getting beat by Geelong, 101-27, FMD, what an embarrassment to the AFL and Swans.

What makes a team play or fail like this on the big day? it would make an interesting study.

This is almost sad to watch.

The point of this blog isnt to put the boot into the poor Swans, its to ask the question, how can a big day go so bad?

Almost better off the Swans didnt make the GF, these type of losses do more bad than good.

We need to hit the ground running next week, be fully ready to go.

We cannot run out flat next week

    • Yeah its sad to watch Mack, scary too seeings we are in a GF next week, the mind starts to wander, i need to get it back on track and only manifest winning.

      • It's cos I didn't rub on buddy 

        🤣🤣

  • Shambles isn't it....

    Were the Swans favourites?

    • no idea mate, but i had the impression they were fairly close, its a tough watch seeing any team beat like this, this is humiliating for all sydneysiders

      • Massively off the pace, everything Geelong are doing sticks and every time the Swans get the ball theres a Geelong player there smothering any time or space they had.

  • Definitely cannot do a 2001 and be too awestruck and like a deer in headlights 

  • Unfortunately I follow the swans in AFL and they were horrendous. First quarter they lost the game.

    Pathetic and disgraceful performance..

  • It's pretty much what would've happened to the Cowboys if they came up against The Riff in Sydney next weekend.  We played pretty shocking and accounted for them . Imagine them down here against Penrith if Penrith were at their best.

"He needs developing. Eels need a FG half today. It doesn't make any sense to persist with him. Cleary will destroy him this weekend."

"Definitely use Kelly until Will is back. Far to early to be blooding cup players yet. Not sure if they should move Sean over to Bailey wing and slide Bailey to centre. Ado and Kelly might work as a pairing but ill leave it to Rylesy"

"I thought the ground announcer got the vibe pretty well. And he was full of passion. It didn't come off like a TV journo or MC simply chalking up a weekend gig."

"I don't like his chances up north, he needs a few more years developing before he leads a team like that. Maybe Anasta can see how that's playing out and pull the pin on that move. I see a good 7 in Pezet but it's down the road a bit yet "

"Definitely a much improved game day experience. The flags handed out at the gates were a great touch and looked awesome when everyone was waving the pre game. The gound announcer seemed to play a larger role as well, without overdoing things, which…"

"Walker firstly is more experienced and also came from one NRL team to another. He also isn't playing 80mins like French is.
French needs combinations with his edge, fullback, hooker and halfback. As well understanding the defence.
My case in point…"

Jonah Pezet so far

Only 3 games into his eels career, plenty of ups and downs from Pezet but for the most part he seems a solid young half. His defence needs a lot of work but not sure moving to Brisbane and facing all of that pressure is going to help him. Looks like…

I know someone posted on here a while ago asking for feedback etc etc. I thought they did an excellent job yesterday and I'm so glad they dropped that god awful techno version of enter sandman. The atmosphere yesterday was really good. I love how…
