Oh no we've lost 2 games.

[swans_premiers]

Oh no we've lost 2 games to the early starters for the year in Kangaroos and Adelaide...lets blood the kids our season is over!!! I can't even remember ANY team that made the top 4 after being 2-2 especially the SWANS..but i guess we're just middle table


It's the highs and lows of football we've been the 3rd best team over the last few years and with Port and Brisbane only getting older and losing players this will be a good year for us(who have we lost?), we've got some finals experience, we have match winners and we have depth. We'll beat melbourne next week and we'll all forget about today.

[footyhead]

Just like you forgot about the first 3 quarters of the game againts the lions during this week?

Time for the Swans to really take a good good look at themselves.

[Newbie]

It is not about how many losses, it is about how we lost them. The game against Brisbane was a lucky win. Perhaps, footyhead was right. We should have lost that game so the reality could be seen much clearer.

We have no half forward life. Have no target from the kick out.

[swans_premiers]

You're right, everyteam in history should take a good hard look at themselves, even the bombers of 2000 lost a game.

I still think we are a chance for last year's flag.

One good quarter of footy, some favourable umpiing and opposition inaccuracy won for us v Bris. We could easilly be 1-3, and probably should be. We have serious problems.

Agree 100%. I thought that fantastic win in Brisbane would inspire our players, but there are deeper issues here and we are failing to see them. In about a fortnight we'll know how we stand this season.

[Jeffers1984]

We have a very poor record of scoring a win after a big win the week prior. It happened in 03 after we lost the pies when we beat brisbane the week before and now of course this game.

The Demons Anzac Day/Weekend game seems to be the barometer of how we go for the upcoming weeks (03 we started that huge run, 04 we went on a 3 match losing streak).

Anyone with half a brain won't forget about today. This is why I was discussing the Brisbane game in detail, despite some people saying we should just enoy it regardless of how it happened. The signs were there last week, as previously, that we are struggling.

Make as many smartarse sarcastic comments as you have done in your first paragraph, but the simple fact of the matter is that the Swans have underperformed for decades and rarely look like threatening to win a premiership and disappoint more often than anything else.

Did you make this comment after we lost a few games last year and some of us comment on our weaknesses, and the year before and the year before...

[BonBon]

I don't like the look of the next few games we've got.

SPOT ON!!!! Good Call the season is definatly over after being 2-2. I think we need to take a harder look about half way through the season, i mean Port has only won 1 game, but i'm certain, as i am with the swans that they will pull there finger out and start palying good footy again.

We have no half forward line? We have the same half forward line as the past 2 years nd it's been described as one of the best around. It's just a pity that we dont have any midfielders that can hit them on the tit from 50 metres away.

Have some faith! This is why Melbourne clubs contantly get higher attendances to their games.

There you go again

Good on you swans_premiers for having a positive spirit. If last week had been the GF, NMW would still be pulling it apart and "reminding us" that the signs for the future were dire. And if we were ever to get to three in a row like Brisbane, we'd be reminded that nothing last for ever.

As my dad always told me: Every cloud has a silver lining, and will probably bring rain.

How many GF's have the swans played in since 1945? Don't think too hard.
