Good analysis but I have to disagree that the Swans “deserve” a premiership. No one deserves anything. You have to earn it, and the Swans just aren’t hard enough or tough enough to win a flag, which plays out in their embarrassing Grand Final performances during the past decade (2016 being an exception) …
They gotta actually kick a score aswell. 74, 67, 52 and 60 will not win flags (compared to their 97.5 points for average this season) They need their own Jesse Hogan or Curnow/McKay I can’t see McDonald/Amartey being the players to kick more than 50 in a season

If everyone keeps talking about us losing in the past how about we talk about the 2022 prelim. The time when the lions sucked and choked 7 years ago for basically 4 years in a row. Also the 2004 grand final.
I’ve never seen a club bottle such an absolutely golden opportunity for a flag. Grundy arrives, you recruit Adams, Hambling and Jordan. You butcher Parkers return to the team and not play him on the ball now he’s walking to North Melbourne. There’s no plan B from the coaches, no mongrel in this team. Then they put up the shit in a grand final just pea hearted, soft and just copped it. Worst performance I’ve seen in 24 years as a member
I’ve said this many times but, John Longmire should’ve been given his marching orders five years ago as he is basically the AFL equivalent to NRL coach Ricky Stuart as they were excellent players during their careers but only won one premiership at the Sydney Swans and the Sydney Roosters in 2012 and 2002 respectively due to being handed the teams that their previous coaches Paul Roos and Graham Murray had built after those two respective coaches departed the clubs in 2010 and 2001 and it makes me absolutely sick that Horse has been re-signed twice since 2019 after he had missed out on the finals for the first time in his career.
I dont think this group of players will win a premiership. They arent tough enough. If you think of the 2005 team with kirk and hall and the 2012 team with hannebry and kennedy who would risk their safety every week and now our team is full of talented players but skill will only take you so far.

Playing on a postage stamp size ground all season. Where their very good mids just bang goals from the 35 metre centre square so have no real need for a decent tall forward. Get on a big deck and McDonald and Amarty get exposed. The mids can’t slot them through from the middle so easily. So the winning blue print isn’t so effective. Papley trying to start wrestles with water bottles and blades of grass. Carrying on a like pork chop but absolutely terrified after McCartney staunched him.

They didn't take their chances early, then couldn't stop Brisbane's run of momentum in the second quarter.
