Like Kerr - holding the ball and then drops it. Monty cops it high (although he ducked a bit) and it leads to Hunter's last goal. Also a STUPID holding the ball decision and then a 50m penalty lead to a goal to the west coast as well..... bloody Goldspink.

I was disappointed, for sure, and there were tears, but I was mostly just proud of the way the boys fought back. I've had my questions over the season, and my doubts at times, but the way they played in the second half dispelled all doubts.

They showed such character in defeat, and I was so very proud of them.

I have to admit, I am way more confident of our chances of winning the flag next year then I was of winning it this year the day after last years GF.

The fact that they backed up from last year with another grand effort and continued improvement from the fringe players makes me look forward to next year with great hope.

with those reffing decisions you have to question how league can last in melb esp with the video ref to blame in one....3 decsisions which every time they happened changed the momentum of the game and ended in points for the broncos.

Let's hope there is a next year for the Swans.

finally summed up the courage to come on here.

I can't believe just how much the loss upset me. I'm still just numb. We finally made it home late Saturday night and I just couldn't believe it. had a cuppa (the thought of alcohol out the window) and went to bed. Kept waking up. Finally decided to get up and give away sleep as a bad joke. Watched the tape and just depressed myself again. I missed passages of the final half and was reminded of what exactly transpired. I guess I was just focused on us scoring enough before the siren went.

Dropped Sis off and had a little cry as I hugged her goodbye. Did some shopping and then came home to try and find some solace at the bottom of a cartoon of beer. I felt better as I drank one after the after and had a marathon SMS session with lots of different friends. Poured myself into bed around 3am.

Woke up this morning to see the reception they got at subi and the line up for merchandise etc. Cried again while reading the papers. Then had to do some work.

Knowing and expressing how I feel makes me feel a little silly in some ways. It just seems wrong that I should be so upset due to a game of footy when I am so far removed and am merely a supporter of the team. I know I have every right to feel however the hell I want to and there is no or wrong to feel but it just seems a little maybe childish?? I don't know, all I know is it still hurts and typing this is making me feel upset all over again.

Oh well back to work tomorrow to take down all of the red and white I'd hung up last week.
