    Sorry he couldn't crack it for another 2 games. There were a few games recently he could've starred in.

    Well done Ben. Great service to the club and as one of the gang of six captains, a well-deserved premiership medal.

    And wasn't it Matthews who refused to give Plugger back his No. 4 jumper during the Plugger comeback?

    Bye bye Ben.
    You had a great career at the Swans and we thank you (in our different and unique ways) for your service. I hope to see you at the game on Saturday to give you a cheer!
