Very impressed by kemp staying in the play running hard to make position to give an option.

Sick of playing blokes like O’Brien who have no heart or fierce competitiveness to attack the ball. If a few of our guys are having a bad day they put up the white flag with no desire to fight on crack in or even do the one percenters that might make it hard for the opposition.
We are playing with no heart

Don't know if I should mention this as my source has been notoriously over reactionary but 10 weeks was what he'd heard.
Wouldn't normally say anything but he did make the call on the broken hand onfMonday. Hoping he's wrong again
Re: Hewitt
Don’t know how broken it is as he was at Children’s hospital doing the PR thing about Good Friday game shaking hands and giving out paraphernalia etc with no strapping on either hand

Panic?
You must have watched a different game!
We should have killed the ball that Lynch marked but, until then, we had control of the game. Similarly, Motlop’s handball was the right choice in most circumstances but not this time … but how many games has he played?
One minute to go
in clear possession with a mark
in front
Lost
Maybe not panic……but

If Lynch or Martin do their knees in the first 5 mins he’ll be bitching louder than anybody else.
Everything he says to the media is a smokescreen.

Technically i'm 14 as well but have no real memory of football in 1962 at 5yo so didn't count it. My mother got me supporting the Blues in 1964, before the old man could get in and make me a Swans supporter....lol.I remember 1964 as being our worst ever to that stage as we finished 10th
My first game was Carlton v Melbourne in 1964. 3rd last, us, v the Premiers, Melbourne. We led most of the day but got run over by 2 goals.
hard to believe as we are happy to finish 9th this year 🙄🤔
Upheaval at board level in came Harris and Barassi and the rest is history kicking off a golden era!

There’s a huge difference when you measure our success over the last 35 years and the 35 years before that.Same for me 14 GFs for 8 flags although 1962 GF bit of a blur remember the controversial prelim more 😀👍
I’ve been lucky enough to witness the Mighty Blues in 14 grand finals for 8 cups 🙂
My old man had the golden run died aged 78 but had 19 GFs for 11 flags!
Be nice to catch him 🙏
No wonder we expect results from “ the team that never lets you down”🤔
