Because they are coached that way. Get a lead and play differently. Go into your shells. It worked somehow last year. I’ve no idea how, but it’s not a sustainable strategy and the cracks are there. This should have been iced.

For the second time in three years Sydney have effectively ended our season at the SCG

Where's the post-game thread. People don't want to churn through the game comments.

Just threw the season away, after having a 27 point lead. It’s inexcusable how we keep allowing this to happen.
The non-50 was criminal. Even Hodge thought it should have been paid and he hates us.

^On holding leads, we are knackered deep into the season having to rely on so many new/young legs is all.
I am loathe to say anything about umpiring, but that is effing bloody disgraceful. They gave Sydney how many pathetic frees, including some disgraceful ones like the magical mind-reading Cox deliberate, yet they miss the clear-as-day, unambiguous 50m to McStay? That is inexcusable. That was some very, very ugly one-way umpiring.

Well that was entirely foreseeable.

Re: Post Match. Swans sink Pies - All comments.
We couldn’t win 1 clearance when it mattered. We get 5 goals up try and slow the game down when we have momentum and give the game away.
Human behavioural studies suggest people who use a lot of swear words tend to be more honest & trustworthy.

Re: Post Match. Swans sink Pies - All comments.
^ Right Jezza. The umpiring was absolutely cheating and the club needs to make an example of this. Our season is done now so we have nothing to lose. It's time we absolutely torched the umpiring department and order them to get somebody who knows something about football in place. Laura Kane has no idea.
But for all that, there is no excuse for the way we capitulate in last quarters this year. Fly you have been found out.

Re: Post Match. Swans sink Pies - All comments.
We leak goals so quickly. 3 goals in 4 minutes here. 2 goals in 2 minutes there.
You just know we are going to give up quick goals and make it hard for ourselves.
Feel sorry for the Pies fans at the game tonight that had to sit through another SCG loss.
This season is over. Play the kids. Sort out our injuries with surgery. Have a rest and come back next year.

Game losers: Lipinski in final term; shit his pants taking hand ball in front of goal.
Also sprayed a shot at goal deep in the last with two players free on the goal square.
and to Ned Long, who ruined all his good work having his free kick reversed when he threw his temper tantrum,
with the maggot umpire who couldn't give the ball away fast enough leading to the Pink Duck revival.
Two games to go, then i'm done with AFL, McCocklin, Dildo, and the dipshit bimbo twit.
Enjoy your empty stadiums in September fcuktards
Fuxtel getting throw to the shithouse this week.

We once again missed too many easy shots on goal.
I could copy and paste this on a weekly basis.
Noble is a better player than Schultz.

I for one would like to hear Hiss’ take on tonight’s loss?

The more I see of this season, and the more I see of Nick Daicos, and the more I see how we don't go well when he gets tagged out of the game, the more I realise how much we owe last year's premiership to him.

No way did the Swanettes deserve to win this game. That's what burns me so hard. I hate that club and its city to be honest. Hate it with a passion.
The good news is we now are certain to have a five week extra break in the off season. Get everyone right and reboot for 2025. But the other thing that's certain is we need a new game plan. The best way to save a game is to win it! Kick goals, don't shut up shop.

Umpire in the way of Elliot, hence why he went over the boundary line. Clearly out of bounds and what was the boundary ump doing? Not even looking, he was looking at the goals!!!
