  1. Not too many SuperCoach relevant players here if you don’t own Stewart and Gulden.

    I popped new recruit Roberts on field over Hollands just so I have someone to cheer for.

  3. Just Roberts, stewart and gulden for me here.

    Hopefully Clarke stays away from stewart tonight! I’m having a good little round thus far and want it to continue..

    1. Good luck Mav, only got Gulden here but have Rookie Roberts on bench if he does good can put camamiti on field to get it.
      Real curious to see what cats do since they’ve only beaten bottom teams so far. Could be interesting if swans get early lead!!

  4. Gould the sub. Swans match committee agreed he was just too powerful an asset to have on field.

      1. Lucky for you Nato

        42% on field 58% on the bench.

        This kills his cash gen for a while even if the knee isn’t serious.

  6. Anybody think Longmire sometimes our coaches himself?
    Got tall in Francis playing down forward and got Mills an onballer playing fullback on Hawkins. Wtf? Need centre clearances- ffs- put Mills onball!

    1. Madness.

      Mills opened on Hawkins, was on him up until I stopped watching.

      I get the McCartin Brothers and Rampe are out but you don’t put Mills on him. Ooof.

    1. Honestly, TC? Probably the worst coaching performance I’ve seen in a while – and I like Horse and the Swans.

      Probably were never going to with 3 key defensive outs but:

      – Mills on Hawkins, Francis FWD
      – Ridiculous CB mix of Rowbottom & Parker team high, Papley 50% for some reason, with Warner 3rd, Gulden just 7 and Mills unsighted. Tf.
      – low conversion on early clearance wins, poor pressure and directive to bomb instead of lower eyes or force groundball
      – not sending Clarke to Stewart after the Swans & Clarke basically pioneered the HB tag
      – bringing a useless extra to stoppage instead of behind the ball
      – then very little modulation during the game on all those things and misread conditions/matchups

      All horrific. Ba-bong.

      1. Sounds like they lost the plot.
        Rowbottom sort of makes sense if tagging, but Mills would be more effective.
        I just assumed Clarke was tagging Stewart, why else would you pick him.

        I think the swans need to accept their situation and use the youngsters in their correct position.

  7. Gulden tonight:

    – 7 CBAs
    – 4 frees against
    – 3 behinds
    – 7 clangers
    – 50% DE

    Role not ideal but can see how with those numbers in a 100 point loss he ended up with 47. Eh. 100% of his 16 touches were kicks and was among the few Swans players trying to manufacture something and get it forward.
