Hey you said it.

Sydney’s forwards weren’t beaten they didn’t play well just a bad day.

I didn't say anything

You just cupped your hands and smelt your own 💩

Just on the Brisbane defence having an easy time of it, my recall is that Sydney led by 3 goals to 2 in the early going so had momentum

Led by 37 that momentum was stalled - and the rest is history

Then the Brisbane mids took over and momentum was the other way - including 8 goals straight on the trot

Sydney led early on but it wasn't 3 goals to 2.

Brisbane kicked two behinds to start with. Both Cameron and Daniher missed from close range.

The Swans kicked the first two goals of the game but they were quickly followed by 2 goals to Lohmann...that was the last time the Swans were ahead on the scoreboard

Dominant midfield display from very early in the game.

Yep Sydney couldn’t penetrate Brisbanes defence. Consistently picked off.

JFC.

There is commentary and footage everywhere of how lame the Sydney midfield was. Failed to do the basics like chase and contest. They did their defence zero favours.


Holder of unacceptable views and other thought crimes.
