    Nothing to be excited about Brisbane took the foot off the pedal much earlier than Geelong did. Makes you wonder how Kenny couldnt get his team up to beat this rabble!

      Come on Longmire defenders where are you, after 2022 you said it was a one off he is doing a great job.

      No getting smashed in a GF is not a great job its a sacking offence. The minimum is to make the opposition earn it.
      I'm not defending him anymore.....time for change.

      As I said earlier, I work with a fellow Swans fan who hails from Sydney and she has an uncle with, let's say, inside knowledge and he says that every time someone at the club mentions 'succession plan', Horse shuts it down, like he doesn't want to even consider it. She says that her uncle reckons it's become a real awkward subject at the club.

      So it may be a tricky issue....but the club really needs to bite the bullet now....and hopefully Horse sees the light and makes it easy for them.

        Wow. Four grand finals attended. 0-4. Total score 479-253. Average score 120-63. Today 120-60. So today was par for the experience.

            Lions had 51 inside 50s, we had 49. Their entries were purposful to a target. Ours were bombs to their defenders.
            Such an appalling display of football.

                Not sure, if they mentioned the specific injury, I wasn't really paying attention. I think he had a bit of a limp, but I didn't get the impression it was anything serious.

                    He limped all day and is limping very badly now.

                      My commiserations for paying good money for that. I found it hard enough sitting in my lounge room.

                        Thanks mate. I've left young kid(s) home each time. Pretty flat with myself.

                            Followed them for 40 years and now I am really thinking of changing teams.What a team of spineless weak minded prima donnas! I hope we don't make the GF for many years to come, I cannot handle another effort like 22 and 24.
