Round 18 - Last Round for the losers

simultaneous.
No way was it clear cut

Yes it was. Quite clear cut. From what I could see. Should have probably gone back anyway to Dangerfield as it was simultaneous play on, no chance to make an advantage decision. Swans only have themselves to blame. Some really poor skills in the last quarter or so.
 
No outcry over the free kick against Hawkins?

I reckon if that was against Riewoldt the internet would be broken from all the posting. :p

Was a weird one, it was a weird action from him, but nothing different to if he'd actually jumped off the ground for the mark. To me that wasn't a free but I suppose makes up for that joke of a free he got in the 3rd.

Was a free imo. You can knee someone going up for the mark but not just standing there on the ground and sticking your knee into their head.

2 boots in the frame
Agree that the swans have shot themselves in the foot. shocking final quarter.

Knee'd him in the head, landed, then took the mark. Umpire said he went too early. You shouldn't be able to knee a guy in the head, land on the ground, then mark the ball after you've landed. Seemed fair enough.

Been some horrible skill errors by the Swans in the final quarter. They could have won this.

how is that not a free kick against hawkins? i see it paid all the time with anyone else. Media need to put a spotlight on it. Pathetic noone in the media called it out that it caused an ACL.

Dog act. Super dangerous.

Swans blew it as predicted. They make too many basic skill errors to be a good team. Effort was great but skills not good enough.

Papley Castagnaed them out of the game.

Sydney attacked that last 20 seconds like they were starting the last qtr.
Where was the numbers at half forward?
How were allowed to clear the defence twice?
Why was so many flying for the same ball?
Longmire is a shocking coach.
Hopefully next year he starts to get the heat he deserves.
Stephen's and Clarke lost Sydney that game.
Reid should join his brother and get out of the game.
