If a Morton can win a flag I can win Lotto !!

Anything is possible

Go Dees !!!

Posted

I feel happy for the Swans, makes me realise how absolutely awesome it would feel if my dees ever won a flag.

Almost feel jealous of them.

This is where we need to get to. Please Neeld make this happen!

PS suck [censored] Hawks :)

What a great game, made even better with the Dawks losing.

I don't know of one Hawk supporter that I like so I'm glad they got beat and the Swans go home so they don't bother me.

With free agency starting on Monday wouldn't it be great if the game was a draw?

Imagine Rivers fronting up for Hawthorn and Beamer for Sydney in the replay?

Geez? they'd have to be kept fit.

Their captain was pick 5. Fairly handy player too.

Compare the amount of early picks from Melb & Hawks?

Great game. Probably the two clubs that I admire most, but I'm really glad the Swans won.

I'm sounding like a broken record but don't forget they have almost just under one million dollars more per year to spend on players.

I'll say it again, they have recruited and drafted very well but I don't get excited by it when they have an unfair advantage.

A mighty Morton comes good.

Good omen?

Don't tell me culture doesnt matter.

No early draft picks!

No bottoming/tanking!

Recycled players!

Culture !

Flag!

Now, is this why Sheahan & Healy/Roos etc, were having a crack at us earlier this year. Maybe they were worried about our culture & the future of the club itself.

Our club has lost its soul & created a culture of tanking thinking that this would bring success! ( present coaching/footy dept not incl)

Melb,Hawks,& Saints have had a large number of early picks & priority ones too but yet only 1 flag between 3 clubs

The Swans have continued to bring players from other clubs & turn them around. Morton a reject from Richmond, Shaw from Coll, Richards ess etc

I would love to have what they have & its called Culture & playing for it other & buy in & belief no individuals

The 'Tanking/List Management' wasn't us losing our 'soul'. It was us beginning to try to find a way of learning to win again.

We are now realising the real problems were elsewhere in our makeup.

We are Now into rectifying this, atmo, and have some people who seem to know what they're doing.

We'll get back our soul, that we lost in the 60's, when we become Honest again. Political correct65ness is short changing.

Hope our players watched the game, hope in particular Gysberts, Watts and Morton did; all the skill in the world won't do you a bean of good if you don't have a hard work ethic. The game isn't all about you it's about the team; winning B&F's won't outweigh a premiership medallion.

That's why I have faith in Neeld, that's what he wants our team to be; a team.

You think she might tell us .

The bitterest pill would be if fat Phil got him there.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
