i tipped seans by 25. 3 points off, but they played great. seeing grundy play so well brought a smile to my face, even though hes not in the black and white anymore i still wish him all the best at Sydney. same with tay adams too
BREAKING NEWS: After his outstanding performance, the AFL conducted a random post match check on Brodie Grundy. The only thing they found in his pocket was Max Gawn.
Good game to the swannies, you are going to be an elite team this year! Our inaccuracy and lost opportunity’s led us to the result, good to see the youngsters get up there, Windsor and Jordan! Good luck for the rest of the season 👍🏻
The game plan of long high kicks into the forward 50, or forwards just not making any leads & waiting for that long high kick, has to come under scrutiny. 3 years now of that failed game plan
Honestly just glad footy’s back. Some nice ball movement from both sides, sloppy execution from both sides. Melbournes forward line is a mess right now. Not sure how Schache gets a game of AFL footy now a days.
Honestly why are Melbourne so obsessed with Bulldogs rejects in the first place. I wouldn't even suprise me if they went after Caleb Daniel at this point.
Who would've thought that the first match of the 2024 AFL season would be at the Sydney Cricket ground before the fixtures were even ennounced? Great to have football back. There were periods of inaccuracy by both teams, but Sydney were the ones who wanted the match more. First premiership points go to the Swans.
There was an obvious problem with the Dees only playing 3 quarters instead of 4. Is it a basic fitness issue, or a failure to adapt to the slippery conditions? I think they need to work hard on both issues. PS. I don't ever want to see them going back to kicking way more points than goals.
Agreed Max Gawn looked very fatigued during the 4th and yes he won't have to play that good of an opponent every week but looking at it for finals (ik its a long way away) not having him fit for the 4th quarter in close games against good teams is a worry.
Not sure if Swans played great, but a few more games and we will see if Melbourne's premiership window has closed. They could tank and start the rebuild now or maybe do like Hawthorn and trade some premiership players for good young players or draft position.
@@Hunty49 'good young players' Hawthorn hasn't gone anywhere near winning a premiership since trading Hodge, Mitchell, Lewis etc. Their young players are rubbish.
@@Hunty49 Neither team was exceptional, but the difference we at least tried to change angles when moving the ball down the ground and inside 50 whereas Melbourne just bombed it inside 50 all the time.
Definitely one of the strangest games I’ve seen, poor movement, sloppy skill execution, terrible missed shots, players weren’t giving it anywhere near their all. What about that goal from Van Rooyen tho 😂
Don't be fooled by the highlights, the game was quite boring overall. Melbourne had 1 goal before finally kicking one before & after half time. Grundy played ok but not worthy of the praise that he got. Papley is the best player, if he finds the ball more could win the Brownlow.
@@crypto463 I don't think Papley was best on ground, but I think he is the best player at Sydney and primed for a great year. Grundy had some good moments, but Gawn beat him plenty especially in the 1st half
@@hotkeyafl I would disagree partly here papley is our best forward but i think gulden who didn't have the best game is our best player purely off the season he just had. But I also think grundy does deserve the praise because he had 23 disposals 4 marks 6 tackles 9 clearances and 33 hit outs against a well respected opponent.
@@imalwaysright they've been training the whole summer in that humidity, what excuse is that? These are payed "professionals' yet they play like auskick. Some of the shots on goal were just embarrassing.
Worst opening round ever, the two most boring sides to watch, playing at the most cramped small oval with horrible videography. Nice one AFL! If u wanna have a Sydney opener atleast show GWS who play a good brand of footy
WRONG it's a Great opening round game Sydney vs Melbourne at the Great SCG better then Richmond vs Carlton at Gabba worst opening to a round EVER & no with Sydney vs GWS as opening round match
@@jackhudson2237 Big deal and I’m from Victoria. What’s one more week. I’m just glad football is on a week earlier this year as the long weekend is usually boring if you’re not an NRL fan. It’s not as if most of those Richmond V Carlton games were stellar themselves anyway. Probably only 2 or 3 memorable ones I can recall as Carlton have been a bottom team for 90% of the last 20 years
Papley, Heeney and Grundy were on 🔥
Grundy humiliated Melbourne & Max Gawn
All 3 Players Play The Game Well In That First Match Of The Season In Opening Round Of AFL
what a joy it is to be an Australian and be able to watch AFL !
Brodie Grundy is back, my laaawd he was elite 😮
(sydney fan) cracker of a game in the ruck but ball distribution was shocking

Grundy had Gawn worked out from the first bounce.. negated Demons mids…great first up game for Sydney.. and im a crow fan👍
Blakey, Papley, Heney, Grundy and Macerniney....
Keep these boys fit and healthy....
🙏😊👍
It’s Mcerniney
Great Win with Sydney! By 22 that’s amazing
Disgusting how the match previews are just an infomercial for gambling.
fully agree, gambling ads still out of contol
I'm so over it.

unreal some of these misses, how can u not kick from such range
slippery from sweat
really humid in sydney the ball was wet all players were dropping it

Great win Swannies!
Grundy is on for a good year!
Swans just flexed a muscle at home
Grundy's personal revenge? 🤪
I tipped the scores to be 86 to 59… very close
Good game for the red boys, up swans❤️👏🏻🎉🎉🎉
The fast half wasn’t that great. But overall the game was alright
Swans where on fire
Swans are back?
Yep in first now

It's a shame that Grundy didn't play as well with Melbourne, as he did with the Swans playing against the Dees in this match.
They tried to turn him into a forward / ruck. Longmire isn't that stupid.
Melbourne are cooked. They'll be lucky to place in the top 17 at this rate.

Both these teams will struggle to play finals. Finish 12-9.
