Did you see Rhyce Shaw? Someone on the swans facebook said he had to literally be carried through the airport hahaOriginally Posted by mcs
I See It But I Don't Believe It!!!!
Went to the reception at Lake Side today, then to the airport. Home now and reading all the papers drinking my cuppa out of my Premiers mug. I feel so good and the best bit was my Dad, who turned 83 on Wednesday & had spinal surgery only four weeks ago, was able to make it to the game with us. The tears in his eyes and smile on his face at the final siren were precious.
Thank you Swans..... you did yourselves proud.
Rhyce was the only one not there this morning at Lakeside .... Mummy was there but may not remember very much of the day
A late post on the game from me. Home pretty late last night. Great win by a team that again did not have a passenger. To have so many match injuries and still triumph was legendary stuff.
Hats off to Malceski after a form slump and I for one thought that he had been playing soft footy. Reinvented himself in the second half of the season and played tough, hard footy. I was up the Punt road end and Alex Johnson's second quarter was special. He kept his eyes on the footy and read the play superbly. Mind you LRT's last quarter was pretty good as was Sam Reid's last quarter.
Folks, that feeling of exhileration when the siren goes and you instantly go into raptures is hard to match. For much of the game I think most people react like they do at any game, but when the lady behind me said there was 34 seconds to go when Mal nailed that goal the feelings and emotions went haywire in anticipation of the siren.
Agree with all you said Nico, but in particular, the part about Alex Johnson - he announced himself to the footy world yesterday I think.
What an epic achievement. It's still not sunk in that we've actually managed to win the premiership.
91 points is our highest score ever in a Grand Final.
10 points is, as Goodes said in jest, a "blowout". It is our second-biggest winning margin in a Grand Final and the most one-sided Grand Final that Goodes has played in.
Smashing hoodoos to win and even just to get there.
Adelaide: 14 games, 2 wins.
Collingwood: 11 games, 11 losses.
MCG: 15 games for 1 win and 1 draw.
Win. Win! WIN!!
Goodes tore his PCL, had the trainers make a new PCL made out of lots of firm bandages and played out the game without painkillers.
We've now got five dual premiership players and five premierships.
There's an eerie similarity with Geelong's results in Grand Finals.
Geelong: WLLLLLWLWW (1963, 67, 89, 92, 94, 95, 2007, 08, 09, 11)
Sydney: WLLLLLWLW (1933, 34, 35, 36, 45, 96, 2005, 06, 12)
If this pattern holds, we will win the next Grand Final we play in.

Yep - he was looking absolutely worse for wear!!!! Not really sure he knew what was going on. Hannebery also looked pretty heavy going this morning, and Gary Rohan as well had obviously had a very big night!
What a fantastic win, im still undefeated watching the swans in melbourne.... Awesome awesome
Sick of some hawks crap tho
Rhyce must have hit the berocca then. He looked rejuvenated at the SCG.

Awesome game yesterday. Just awesome. We have spent the day driving up the Hume beeping and waving at other Swans-decked cars. I love all my boys. So proud of all the young kids in particular and stoked for the guys that played in 06. I dont think i have stopped smiling
It's going to be hard to fly under the radar next year when we go back to back. I love this club.
Am i the only one who was more worried in the third quarter than the fourth? They had that building feeling in the last and i knew they could do it.
