Almost as if someone's been reading this thread....

Very few interviews conducted with either the coach or any of his Swans doesn't include the phrase "four-quarter effort".

"We haven't really mentioned Finals, we are still xx weeks from the end of the Home and Away".

"Kenny has pulled up really well , he played 63 minutes , so should be right to go again, but everyone has to compete for their place".

"The contested possessions were xx/xx so that was particularly pleasing for us"

THINKING : "I wish I didn't have to endure these boring platitudes I roll out week after week "

"He's a real competitor."

genuine pace

pleasing

I'd add "critical for us" to the list.

I also notice that he' so understated that he never even says things like "hopefully the fans come along and we can get a win". Instead he says "hopefully the fans can come along and witness a four quarter game of pressure footy between two sides going at it." He is very careful with the way that he words things so that his players understand that absolutely nothing is guaranteed.

How come in your opinion whenever we lose it's Longmires fault and yet it's never his innovative coaching when we win? He was quite correct in using the term work rate in the presser cause from what I saw that was the main problem, the distinct lack of it.

Longmire did get sucked in to the opposition's way of playing.
