How do you change a losing, soft culture.
Drop a 22 year old.
How Plowman, Murphy, Levi and Doc survive is exactly why this club will never be any good. You had your chance David to make a statement but yet again it's all talk this club
The bulldogs drop Wallis, the Tigers drop Rioli but we'll be right coz it's acceptable to laugh while your getting 5 goals kicked on you. It's acceptable to play forward without offering any pressure or taking any marks or tackling. It's also OK for our running defender to turn the ball over consistently and offer nothing defensively at the moment..
Absolutely terrible match Comittee decisions with the players in our 2's thinking why bother. If your allowing senior guys to do what they want without any consequences then we come back to the definition of insanity, do the same old crap and expect different results. We are a rabble and it looks like nothing will change. I bet if we win everything will be rosy but really it's masking an underbelly of our once great club that is officially a basket case.
David Teague you've officially lost me.

Well said Deano.

I am happy to get the win on the board last night against a severely undermanned Fremantle but I still have grave concerns that we still don’t have the right coaching group and development program to take us all the way. For example the Swans have their academy and a coaching group that is right up there ie John Longmire and Don Pkye and their head recruiter is top class. Then you have Richmond, the West Coast Eagles and Geelong who are in the top bracket. We need to come up to this level I believe to be a real contender and have long term success. I am by no means taking pot shots. Just my opinion for what it’s worth. Go Blues! Ps. I apologize if the above has been answered already.

Get Hirdy......!

Longmire has revolutionised his Swans again. There's a truly great coach.

We need a coach who has the brains and balls to try something totally unique to get a competitive edge.

MM is experienced...

I haven’t been impressed with Teague from last year until now for a number of reasons but i was last week when we made a statement on the intensity and commitment they brought. We need to bring that type of commitment every week or its all for nothing. The reason i say that is because they have come to play for a week or two after some public scrutiny has been applied previously then gone back to their own little back slapping ways. Teague need to keep cracking the whip, that easy.

Yes we won ugly and yes you'd take the 4 pointss but...

Really insipid early-no "ruthlessness" (obviously, Teague's mantra has a 1 week expiration date....f$%$^&^&*
Fumbles fumbles fumbles
Kennedy made Teague look like an imbecile in the half a quarter he played...clean hands, clean kicking action etc etc
Mid-fwd transition absolutely woeful; U12 standard
execution, decision making appalling
And can somebody please tell Cripps that he is becoming sooooooooo frustrating to watch. Wants to do everything on his own and and then brings unnecessary pressure to the team

I think ‘insipid early’ is too strong. We were on top throughout the whole first quarter, but just didn’t get the scoreboard impact we should’ve. Conditions playing a big part in that.
