Sounds like a good idea! I'll see what I can do with that. Which platforms do you suggest?

Well, I can't promise it will be eight things every week but I will try!

I think the swans fb group will like it & twitter. I don't know enough about other social media platforms.

36:30 they say we're continuing the march to the match for the rest of the season for every home match.

That's fantastic and a great initiative to make our own.

that was a very thorough analysis of the swans, very worthwhile ... well done to that crunch time mob
i think mccartin/melican deserved some credit, but as a stern critic of the vic football media i cannot deny that was great to listen to

It's round 2, 2024, we're 2-0 and still getting Buddy questions

 

[Swan4Life]

Beats the hell out of "Never Tear Us Apart".

I thought it was "Never Tear Up Our Tarps".

Might have to recalibrate the hearing aid.

HA! I had the same reaction.

Literally a minute OR LESS on this week's game, and waffle for the rest.

Horse's weekly presser

Fascinating the first 20 secs tells a lot the club internally didnt believe we were a chance this year?

 

[SydneyBlood]

Horse seems a lot more jovial in these last few weeks during press conferences. Of course a very good start to the season will help that but smiling and cracking more jokes than years gone by. Good to see.

 

[Jimbo OZ]

I think that is a weird take. I feel like we've exuded confidence from as early as the trade period.

Such a measured person in his responses, he ponders every question then gives a proper response without giving too much away.
I love the respect he shows Buddy, always calls him Lance.

I really like the way he handled the Buddy (non) story. He didn’t get indignant. He didn’t ridicule it. He just provided a very personal and respectful take on Franklin’s enormous contribution to the club.

It will be interesting to see if Morris just lets it go or if he doubles down on whatever info he thinks he has.

Hopefully the former.

Where there's smoke there's fire , what do you think Horse is going to say

Agreed

Dude was stressed last year.

Good to put on the low stress guru hat

Who's the dude

You are

 

[bedford]

You are

Never been called that thanks , so what is a dude

No not at all he mentioned its more about the way we wanna play rather than results.

 

[Olian]

I took his comments that winning is one thing but playing the way they trained and wanted to play was just as important.

I've no doubt there's a tiny whiff of smoke. Morris wouldn't have made something completely up out of nothing. But I also suspect it was probably just the inevitable pain that a champion player and club go through when they have to come to terms with things being over.

What Horse might have said I touched on in my earlier post. He could have done a Bevo, and attacked the journalist angrily. Or ridiculed him. Those responses would be more likely to engage Morris to fire back.

 

[elastic]

Longmire is all about the process. Doesn't like talking about whatifs and possibilities. All about what you can control and focusing on what's in front of you at each moment.
I like it. It keeps things simple for players.
Just might need to shake it up a little for grand final day.

I just watched the presser and he was very good

 

[bloodsbigot]

I don't like it that Longmire is hinting that he might slot Heeney back into the forward line. It's such a waste when generally Parker is so lackluster. And Heeney has shown what he can do with electrifying form. In the thick of it where we need him.
