[swansfan]

I was just wondering, i am allowed to go to the after match functions, but i havent been to one yet. I wanted to ask any swans fans that have been to this tell me what actually happens during the after match function?

Hang around, have some drinks, have some food, If you know anyone have a chat, some players turn up, they have a bit of a chat over the mike, then you can meet the players and grab a signature. That was the Melbourne one anyway!!

You'll never ever know, if you never ever go!!!!

Luffy is MC. The aftermatch, while some people are still arriving, starts with a light-hearted activity like a trivia quiz or a musical challenge. By the time that's finished, one of the coaching staff (usually John Longmire) has arrived and is interviewed; and after that a couple of the players come and are interviewed as well. The players then usually stick around to sign autographs.
It's good fun, and there'll be plenty of RWO people around.

We normally congregate under the big SCG picture at the far right of the Noble Room. I normally chat with the RWO regulars there whilst the others engage in shenanikans up on stage.

Aftermatch's in Sydney and Melbourne differ quite a lot.
In Melbourne most of the players go as they are on the bus on the way to the airport and some meet up with their families there too.
We usually use the time while waiting for the players to arrive by catching up with friends and having a couple of drinks.
At the last one we had a huge crowd even tho we lost, Grubby Stubbs as a MC, Paul Moorwood said a few words and a couple of players got up for a chat.

In Sydney they are a lot different, not very many people turned up to the last one I went to.
Luffy is the MC and feels the need to organise silly musical or footy trivia games (maybe Sydney people need to be entertained) Usually only one or two players turn up and maybe someone from the coaching panel
