GAME DAY - TIGES V SWANS

We played just as badly last week really. But this is serious oppo. I watched both swans games and they were very very good.

Our coaches look genuinely clueless on how to counter this. Have been on auto pilot for a while so will be interesting to see what happens

Typical early season game for us against a bottom 8 team from the prior year. When the whips cracked in the 2nd half of the year, we will be in the race. But will the swans?

Swans look like us in 2017.
Their hunger is amazing.
Hats off to them
 
Got cocky with selection. Egg is no good, everyone knows it, then drop Rioli and make him sub.

I recon this is what happens when you select a team for structural reasons rather than on form. Aarts and caddy, soft egg? No thanks. Too many players with their heads up their asses.

In this weather I don’t think we can get back 6 goals. Unless we win by a kick on the siren.
 
The umpiring has been terrible plus we have been clearly outplayed.

Only thing that might save us is if we can run out the game better than them
 
Too many *smile* passengers. Caddy, Rioli, Broad, Egg, Lambert, Aarts
, Cotch all *smile* woeful
 
Game is virtually over now. Very poor performance, but of course we will be told "we will learn from this."

Might add 4 of their goals have come from free kicks right in front.

Not an excuse though.

Just hope we can do better in the second half to gain a bit of respect.

North might have beaten us on the efforts so far.
 
8 goals against us in a quarter - smashed in clearance & smashed in transition run. Didn’t come to play & it shows. Why we’re not trying something different in the middle is beyond me.
