Unpacking the Sydney derby DRAMA and Heeney's all time finals performance - Sunday Footy Show

let's take a look at the match and as you say this is the one that saved week one of the finals in many respects it was one out of the box this this is one of the great finals performances individually so Isaac Keeney in the first half if they didn't have him in this first half he was clearly their best player this is Mark of the year if they still paid it in finals that has beaten everything he was unbelievable in the first half and then in the second half he just took himself to a new level clearance work with um Chad but started to go forward played a lot forward in this last quarter needed to kick the winning score Longmire put him forward and he was just an absolute genius 30 disposals three goals one of the best final finals performances of just so tough and he said after the game he just said I realized I just had to crack in so the inspiration that he plays with the fact that he can go forward and be so damaging but also just win the tough finals footy um was there TJ sorry just before you get onto the final quarter heroics from Sydney should the mark of the year and goal of the Year be included in the finals let's discuss it in the agenda later on the show TJ we it's a good CH conversation to be had that's Doo's code for shut up T the other one and not for the first time this year was Chad Warner I mean 14 Touches for the first three quarters he had 13 in the last c a damos man and without Bedford who didn't get up in this game that would have been the matchup so was that the difference in the game just the fact that they didn't have anyone to go to Chad Warner late but he was amazing um and so you put that with Heeney and Warner but I also thought some of the Lesser lights from Sydney late James Jordan was enormous um Campbell the Super Sub Lloyd the Big Goal that he kicked some of their defensive efforts so I thought defensively they were quite poor individually I thought Mills had a number of poor moments but in the last quarter I thought their defense turned it on and to kick six goals or two in the last quarter they did it again come from behind yeah and if the Giants had a won this game we'd probably have them Prem ship favorites this morning now they got to do it the hard way and they did all about win this game and they should have put the swans away early some bad misses like Toby green this is a 9 out of 10 should be 10 out of 10 for a player of his tal or anyone playing AFL football this was a shocker from look at the score the scoring shot been six goals up should have been and then look at this 20 points up so it's emotional you just bury teams like that's not the worst Miss but then this one again you just you kill the confidence off you need to bury teams you need to bury Warner and Heeney and these types of players and kill them off and they didn't do that the Giants yesterday well when you say that you know they would have been Premiership favorites this morning had they won that game um we're not riding them off as they're in good shape their game's in good shape um and they can go the long way around with the we off before the finals now it may even be better to keep playing I mean they've had the really tough game against the Bulldogs they'll get Bedford back I think you favor them at home against Brisbane and then they're into another prelim final when you give them a good just on that apart from Hawthorne I reckon one of their years they lost their first final I can't remember it happening too many times though swans might have done it once two I think when when they were there always spice always tension always heat always niggle between these two teams it blew over into the quarter time break now I focus here on Jason McCartney in the polo Shir of the GW Giants there and Tom patley this incident TJ is being investigated by the AFL it needs to be you cannot have an official of one of the teams getting involved in that moment now he will argue Jas McCart he's trying to Plate the situation but papley bumped into him oh have a look at it closely have a look or can we play it again let's play it again and let's have I'll argue that py bum I'll argue that Jason McCartney's actually lent in there at that stage if you want to slow that down and have a look and he should not be there to in that moment's got right away let's see what let's see what was said too between both people because it will all be thrashed out and flushed out and don't forget it was only in 2021 when Jason McCartney entered the umpire's area of a game at Cambra it was and was also the club was F $220,000 for him putting himself into that situation there's going to be a a a ramification to pay off sorts now again probably a fine would be what would happen again but this will be looked at by the and possibly today in the inside the 24 hours of the announcement watching it over and I'll con see that they were both antagonists but you say that papley had right away but Jason McCartney's got every right to be on the ground I understand that but you're a player moving towards your huddle I feel like the player has right away over the official who's come onto the ground I I feel like P's got right away there and Jason McCartney should have made any touch it's a volatile situation papley had gone at it with Toby green which was as expected but that only moments earlier and they're trying to separate it and then again let's see what the not the Windy Hill brawl but no could don't put yourself in that situation just on the the gws Giants uh Adam Kingsley was bitterly disappointed here was him after the game speaking about the loss no we we didn't play the last quarter um just like we didn't play the first quarter against Brisbane a few weeks ago or the first quarter against Melbourne or the first quarter against Carman played three quarters we played a very very good three quarters but it wasn't good enough he's frustrated with the patchy Football the Giants have played they haven't been complete for a while and uh look at this this is what they did early you got to get in the face of the Sydney Swans the swans are aside good enough to play three quarters they've done it all year they've started so poorly all year but they find a way to win and be on top of the ladder that's how good the Giants were early but what he saying at three quter time it wasn't quite where they need to be Whitfield has moments where keep your feet keep your feet Haywood keeps his uh Whitfield loses his and that's why he's all by himself so there's one moment for the G Giants Loy ke you just don't allow a Ruckman just to heave it like that and then you've got these two players you've got Loy Ash and you've got Jake Lloyd so want to know what Ash is doing at this period he just stops he walks he observes and then that's where Jake Lloyd goes so this is the Sydney Swans Warner I haven't even got on these clips but he was relentless Lloyd was unbelievable golden got off the chain so these are the moments that happened in this game that we not good enough so this is Braden Campbell who had an unbelievable last quarter they just didn't stop his run you got to check Braden Campbell's run otherwise he'll run you off his feet dropped his feet himberg can you trust him at times and this is that man bra Campbell cuz they didn't check his run nice and early that's what happens the swans you got to keep going and then another moment this is Whitfield and Isaac Heeney who would you want in those big last quarter moments have to stick that tackle it doesn't Stick It and Isaac Heeney goes on and kicks that goal of football so again the Giants must play four quarters the swans are good enough not to have to go the whole way at the moment I'll tell you what this is why the by week is so good because they come back fresh good stuff Lord
