    Yes. He was there in the circle singing the song.

    Jones was there in the circle singing strongly!

    Great game with a great finish!
    After many disappointing TV games regarding the commentary etc, I though Foxtel did a great job and was very happy that they continued the coverage until after the song etc, made it memorable for those that couldn't get to the game/

    Will re-sign for certain then. It's well known that there is a strong link between boisterous singing of the team song and
    being a one team player. Likewise any player found guilty of just mouthing the words and not tickling the ear or ruffling the
    the hair of the player next to him should be put on the trade table immediately.

    Imagine if they let Hanners in. I reckon he would've belted our the song louder than most. Would that have warranted us trading him back in 😉?

    Well, now that he seems to be fit again. Though I was a bit disappointed with his game on the weekend. I don't think that he managed to kick it straight to one of our players even once.

    He hung back after the Saints warm-up, spent a lot of time with the Swans coaches then jogged over to McVeigh for a hug. It was almost like he never left, just had the wrong jumper on!

    Absolutely. In fact if that had happened, and Dan was in there a belting out the song, crying because it brought back so many great
    memories, Longmire and the list guys would have noticed and I'd say would have been in a meeting right now working out how they can
    get Dan back to his spiritual home.

    ...yeah no. He didn't spend the game kicking it to "the opposition".

    What a big bang finish to an otherwise sombre year.
    St Kilda hanging around until every swans player/official/hanger-on-er left the ground was a pure class act.
    As much as I've bagged Hanners over the last few years, joining in to carry Macca off the field was, to me, a little presumptuous, but, considering he played 200-odd games with us, noice.
    End. Of. An. Era.
    So glad I got a ticket to the BnF.
    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.

    He'll always be a blood. He could have dug his heals in about last years trade but was willing to go to help us out of a pickle. Top bloke.
