Well said Goswannies.

Proud of how we are giving it a real crack in the 3rd quarter.love how the last 2 goals came from pathetic play from mcglynn and the umps giving freo an age in the middle - story of our night really.
Hope we can win the last quarter and keep it respectable.
All in all, great effort to get this far with so much going against us injury wise. We will be back with a vengance in 2014, mark my words!
"You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."
Don't know what Richards was thinking when he ran past that Freo sub just before he kicked the goal.
Agree with you goswannies. Did their best under the circumstances - except for Ted in that last effort.
Should be a cracker of a Grand final next week.
Thanks Jude for the memories. A true Gentleman in the game. He'll probably get slobbered on by Kirky after full time.
Nothing like a good light bulb moment.
The problem is that we are playing the best side in the comp with a team which is the best we can put on the field after injuries. Even with everyone there we would still have trouble matching this outstanding Freo side. Let's make the most of it and see where we can improve. For me, a bit more man-on-man defence would help; Freo do it very well.
He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)
Hear hear go swannies! We should be so proud of the boys for getting this far. We will back next year!
Don't get me wrong, I think the boys have done brilliantly to be where they are when you look at the injuries we've sustained this season. They can all be proud of themselves.
I just hate that Ballantyne and Crowley get to play on the grand final.
On the bright side we have an extra week in which to prep for next season where we will once again be underrated, under estimated and once again we will shock stun and win.
Tough way to go out in 2013, but it has been a good season. Lots of good times and lots of new talent on display.
I have never seen anything like that second quarter.
Never? Grab a copy of the Port Grand Final loss to Geelong ... or Sydney's 1987 win over Essendon
Let's face it... if Fweo were more accurate, they would have blown us out in the first quarter.
30 points behind with a few minutes to go is fine by me.
Injuries, retirements, playing finals 9 years out of 10... it takes it's toll.
Thanks Jude.
Have a good rest Swannies. See you in 2014.
Good on you Fweo. Do me the hugest favour and beat Hawthorn.
Just to upset the Wet Coke Budgies.

Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.
