Semi Final: Sydney Swans v North Melbourne Kangaroos

Chalbito, I know your motivation is good so not trying to argue but Goodes should be revered as a great of the game, not the club.

I agree and I am sure he will be.

Goodesy retired ????

looks like last game for goodsey judging by change rooms emotions. Never seen our backline look so disorganized. Not looking good for next year. I hope we get Leunenberger. but for $450 k I doubt it.

I'm tearing up here...Adam Goodes, a champion of the club, the game and the country...farewell Adam and thanks

Goodsey has retired!! Life will never be the same again.

Not happy with this result of course, but sort of relieved this frustrating season is over frankly. The A(V)FL have made it a challenge to enjoy our team and footy in general. Not to mention our teams annoying skill level. Really sad for Goodesy! Lots to work on in an at least longer off season. Roll on T20 Big Bash!

Gerard Whately said on ABC Grandstand before the game that it should have been at the SCG, "there would be 50,000 there and the house would be pumping!" and added, "so we've all been let down a bit there.".......and we would have probably won as well! Good riddance to that crappy soulless arena forever. Edit; They're saying on ABC from the Swans rooms that Adam Goodes is teary and hugging Micky O and others and looks like this might be it for the great man. Sad way to end. CHAMPION FOREVER!!

Mickey O teary as well.

Very proud of you Adam ????

Confirmed on the Swans Twitter feed.

Thanks for the memories Goodes. Shall remember them!

[bodgie]

Wow. Thanks so much for everything you've done Goodesy!

[crackedactor]

Its confirmed on twitter. Great champion. Not sad to see Lewis Jetta go. Obviously he decided to leave Sydney and could not give a stuff in the two finals games. Real attitude problem.

Am I right in saying Adam kicked both our first and last goals? So upset that he was not given the farewell he deserved.

He strikes me as unassuming & selfless. He might have gone out the way he wanted (well maybe a premiership was the way he really wanted, but doesn't need the immediate public acknowledgement right now - the plaudits will come).
