Doesn’t he? You know he has won one right?

Has no impact so what are you calling for the umpiring team to be hooked mid-game?

Yeah, and how many in a row has he lost? Maybe it’ll work for him somewhere else, but it’s never going to work for him at the Swans.

Doesn’t matter if it had no impact. It could have.

I’m not disagreeing with that. But you said he doesn’t know how to win one. Which is incorrect he has won one.

4 losses in a row suggests he may just have forgotten

That would have been a better way of putting it. Although I am sure there are a bunch of clubs that wouldn’t mind having the opportunity on the big stage.

LoL, The Sunday Telegraph showing the NRL love by only having the little banner for the Swans loss.

Both BL captains also removed their Rom Barassi Medals too. It was a case of wearing the same as everyone else not being superior than anyone else

They aren’t losers medals. Just straight up disrespectful, especially to take it off right away.

It will be a party atmosphere at the Lions’ training HQ at Springfield this afternoon, when the women’s team takes on the Crows at 3pm, before the family day at 5pm when fans will get to see Chris Fagan and the premiership players.

John Longmire in my opinion is the AFL equivalent of Ricky Stuart. The reason why Horse coached the Swans to a premiership in 2012 was because he inherited the team from Paul Roos who retired as Swans head coach in 2010. Same with Stuart when he coached the Sydney Roosters to an NRL premiership in 2002 as he inherited the team from Graham Murray who left after 2001.

A night grand final is inevitable now

They tried it twice and it didn’t sit right with anyone. I was all for a night GF but I too didn’t like it as much as I thought. My preference is the 2:30 GF but if people want a compromise I think trying a twilight is an option.

*forced to (COVID).

Hasn’t been done off their own willing volition yet.

Well there was nothing preventing them from scheduling the 2020 one at the same time as the Cox Plate -
that’s the main reason why it was a night Grand Final that year.

Why was that forced due to covid? They could have had a day time AFL GF then.
