I wonder if Daniels has also seen the two contrasting advantage calls early in the GF...it's just a random interpretation.

I'm never sure it's just random when they are consistently called against us.

Sydney are being destroyed by the team who beat us by a kick.

No side in AFL/VFL finals history has won with a 46 point deficit at half time. A (little) part of me wants Sydney to win, so that Brisbane too can experience our pain of losing after a record breaking lead in the game.

Perhaps Swans will be a bit less arrogant next year.

i still can’t believe we are not here in the GF. If not for a few unfortunate decisions and unlucky breaks in the finals, this could be us with our inaugural premiership. Anyway, need to move on, and will after this GF finishes

We had to not pick Cogs and/ or Keefe in My view. We had 3 players play less than 70% game time vs Brisbane, thats why we where stuffed.
Also biased umpiring, from artificial AFL.

I think that will be a bit hard given the nature of some of their players and supporters. I am going for Brisbane to beat Sydney by a margin greater than what we were beaten in the 2019 GF (89 points)!

They will be broken mentally.

This is glorious. If you can match and shut down Sydney’s elite midfield then they’re mediocre key position forwards and backs get ruthlessly exposed.

Wouldn’t count on it.
Exactly right Another GF debacle will do our heads in I think your mob would have given this a red hot go

This is just the best. Go have a look at the start of the Swans GF thread… very arrogant.

I think if Longmire loses this, this would be the (equal) most consecutive Grand Final losses by a coach in AFL/VFL history?
Not just consecutive GF losses, but having your arse handed to you on a plate
While I don't agree with being arrogant, I don't think all Swans fans are like that.
They've been a pretty good team and top of the ladder all season.
We have plenty of Swans fans that are dual Giants fans/members or have dual Giants Swans families or mixed Swans/Giants friends. I think we're a bit more of a mixed bunch than we realise.
I am a bit bummed for the Swans but thems the breaks.

The team who beat us by a kick are being destroyed by the team who beat us by a kick.
This game sucks as a contest, though.
Lots of TVs turning off at 3/4 time.

Yeah, uncompetitive at the contest is very a disappointing watch as a neutral.
Far too lopsided.

Something that may be interesting to watch - just how bad will this thrashing be?
Biggest Grand Final win in history was 119 points by Geelong over Port in 2007.
2nd biggest GF win was 96 points in 1988, and then our 89 points GF loss to Richmond in 2019.
A broken Sydney seem on track for a 100+ defeat. Their worst GF loss in history is 81 points vs geelong in 2022, but that may be eclipsed today.
So plenty of reasons to still watch the GF, to see if statistical history can be made!
