I just think the inexperience of our young players is showing tonight. Hawthorn are a tough side, they play hard and fast and niggle. Our younger players are feeling the pressure IMHO.

Of course he is a hard nut - but his recent form in seniors has been abysmal and he wasn't particularly impressive against a very weak team in ressies.
He isn't getting the ball (4 disposal so far), wastes it when he does and hasn't laid a tackle yet - which has always been a strength of his game.
He's not the only player having a poor night so far, but I really think the end is nigh for him come the end of 2016.
"You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."
The focus and intensity of last week has vanished! I have a feeling that the Hawks have changed things up or around in this second term and caused the Swans to be at sixes and sevens - as well as the terrible disposal.
why can we not kick tonight??? is it perceived pressure. Need to stop the uncontested possession and do some one on one football for at least the first 10 minutes of the 3rd quarter. Centre clearances were very poor in the 2nd quarter. needs to change or we will get slaughtered.
Seen it all before. Same mistakes, different day. Show us something different Swannies!
How about standing up when we need you Macca?
Finally get a shot on goal... And miss.
EDIT: anyone checked the free kick count lately? Sydney 3, Hawthorn 11. Typical.

I just heard the ump say sorry to cyril for not paying a #freekickhawthorn
Ahh, first goal since the first quarter. Sometime soon we might get our first free since the first quarter.
Another goal, still waiting for a free.
Free kicks so far, Hawks 13, Swans 3...
