Farewell To the Irishman. You served us well

A key part of a Premiership ... enough said.
A flash off half back ...
Now is the time to retire and go in to full time media

Thanks for the Premiership - forever thankful

Thanks Tadhg for a wonderful career, you were one of the first Swans I've followed from the start now to the end. I will never forget the dashing runs from defence as well as the spontaneous jig on the GF dais.

PS. Nice of you to finally break the goal drought, only took you 5 years!

To 'the only premiership winning' Irishman. Gonna miss him - have had much enjoyment watching him play. Our hearts travelled with him on his spiritual quest at home and then he returned to us. We were very lucky to have him and he is a special player who will be missed.

Maybe sometimes with subtitles ....

Always takes a little time to tune the ear into Tadgh speaking (well, for me anyway)!

Almost slipped under the radar with the retirements of Bolton, Kirk, Barry O'loughlin etc in the last couple of years but in his prime he was arguably our most important player. We were a totally different team when he was playing

See ya tiger. I loved every minute of it, thanks.

Spot on. Very easy to underestimate how crucial he was to the golden era. And he remains the only AFL player to ever do a deliberate header. A true original with his own little barstool down in one corner of the Red and White Pantheon. May the road rise up to meet you Mr Kennelly.

Farewell to our Premiership winning Irishman. A great servant of the club, and kudos to him for all the great moments he provided us over the years. A superb career Tadhg - well done!
