These match reports are getting hard to read...

Every week the focus is purely on how bad the umpiring is

We have been woeful in the forward third today, so wasteful, Sydney are making every rebound a 12 point play.

Yes sorry, I guess everyone wants to vent when they feel we are getting the rough end…

Tippet goals (after close-lining savage)

Saints 21

This is going to get ugly.

Swans players given so much latitude to drive players into the ground after Saints players dispose the ball.

We're about 5 midfielders & 2 key forwards short of competing with teams like this.

Another million in the cap would be handy.

Bruce & Hickey have 3 touches between them

That's fine, do you think they've been good?

Swans are clearly a much better side, but I still think we've had a rough run.

Murdoch is a beautiful kick but slow. Richards ran away for him.

No scoreboard pressure, 3 goals to half time, terrible.

Missing Billings, Lonie, Sinclair and Membrey and with Roo up the ground a lot we dont have the answers

The effort is just 5% off today, but that's all it takes against a team like the swans.

Goddard has been good defensively, needs a bit more composure when he's got the ball but he's just about the only positive thus far.

Actually he's really putting in today. Doing a lot of defensive running. He hasn't made his tackles sticjk and doesn't have good endurance , at this stage so expect him to tire but the endeavour is there.

I'd like to see Holmes forward at some point.

Tell him to lead and go for the ball instead of just following a player around the ground.
