Time for a new thread , the other one is done.
Must move on now and hope a few were wrong , I want to see another flag or 2 , don't care who's coach.

 

[RUNVS]

Swans for the 2024 flag.

 

[bedford]

Swans for the 2024 flag.

Very good !

 

[Olian]

Swans for the 2020 flag.

I fixed it for you.

 

[RUNVS]

I fixed it for you.

I'm being more realistic. We aren't winning the flag with Horse as coach.

 

[McRobie]

if this happened 2 months ago I’d be in meltdown.
But Longmire has proven he can change with the times, Rowbottom in the guts after trying him at the customary half forward role shows the type of move he’s been trying! I love it.
Good luck Long John.

but then he drops Rose for Jack, which is not a great sign.

Good call Bedford

 

[Tedeski]

So!
Where do I start?

At the risk of going off topic... it's a farewell game for Jack at the SCG, against a bottom 2 team, in a year that we're not challenging. Jack deserves that much. Rose will go back to the NEAFL, dominate in the guts and get called straight back up next week.

I wouldn’t hang him on this one selection. He’s come a long way in 2 months.

He was great last week and it showed he was prepared to take a punt on the kid in there after he had failed miserably as a half forward in his previous couple of outings.

 

[Superstar swan]

Ahh well..looks like were in for the same old same old for the forseeable future....one positive is that it shows incresidible stability foe the club

 

[Wolfgang West]

Yet you said he could still take the side to top 4. Any team that is good enough make top 4 can win the flag and any coach that gets them to that position can coach them to that flag.

 

[sataris]

Don't know what they're thinking, but they're definitely not watching the games.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

I think 3 years is one to many but maybe the extra year of security is what Longmire wanted and what the negotiating was about.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Is it just me or does this thread 404 for anyone else rest of the board works fine.

My favourite part of the quote from the Swans.

"The Sydney Swans are pleased to announce John Longmire has extended his contract for a further three years, which will see him remain Sydney’s senior coach until at least the end of 2023. "

Ted last year of Franklin contract to!

Ted last year of Franklin contract to!

2022 is Buds last year

 

[Tedeski]

it shows incresidible stability foe the club

Now this is really the reason I am very happy.
I was very concerned about club stability if he moved early because of the big offer.

Ted last year of Franklin contract to!

I think Bud will sign another year after that.
