Win the flag next year and not only win it, but win it in a way the AFL world will never forget. We need to dominate next year and take that cup.

Our reputation took a massive hit today. I really hope the players are ashamed of themselves

This could go either 2 ways
Either we demise from here and find massive hole in our older brigade(goodes, ted etc) and we battle away all year
Or
We tear the league to shreds next year , the pain and heart break of today turned us into a ferocious machine next year

Doesnt the season start late as well?
Bad luck guys, But im feeling better about losing Tippett
Thanks for your thoughts.

Out of all our players I feel least willing to blame anyone in the forward line. Yes he had a crap game but for a forward they are so reliant on how the midfield is performing and in that respect Tippett did not have anywhere near the service he should have.

The Hawks came out on a mission today, Clarkson is a ruthless bastard

That guy
Hard for them to clear it from defence, transition it through midfield and then mark it up front.
Hard to see how we could possibly have a better season than this one, blew probably our best ever chance in the most humiliating way possible. Can't see us absolutely dominating the comp next year either, having said that, we don't necessarily need too, would take a flag no matter how it came. Teams will be better prepared for us though, pressure on and off field will be more immense next year, a win today could've taken it right off.
The thing is though, it would be a huge failure not to get at least a flag from this list, so a 2015 flag is needed just for that reason. A loss was one thing, the nature of the loss has damaged reputations of the players and the club, a flag might repair that damage it won't really bring any redemption. Despite recent success we're still very much light on the premiership front, it's been bloody hard to get chances let alone win them, knowing all this can't believe the effort that was dished up today. There's no making up for that.
We've got the list to still be a factor next year but who knows though, next year could be our last chance, maybe we've blown our chance. Maybe this loss cost us our chance of finally having our own little dynasty.

You know how everyone mentions this s**t about peaking, injuries etc. well * it. This loss hurts so much that no matter what happens, for next season we should have so much drive that we should be peaking the whole bloody season and ripping apart every team we meet.
Should but it probably won't as every so often we do bring out games like that and it is labelled "un-Swans like" and McVeigh vows never to let it happen again but sure enough it will happen again where the Swans turn up to a game and look completely disinterested.

Well if they don't - then I ask the question I never wanted to ask, what is the bloods culture? That's if next year we don't dominate the league.

They looked like the same bunch that played the first 4 rounds, arrogance and s**t attitude.

it is just so hard to see any positives. Probably because their were no positives.- Status
