Hooray, a win for the Swans!! Not much AFL on now--women's world cup is using most of the airtime. Go Swans! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoWhiners Posted July 29, 2023 Author #209 Share Posted July 29, 2023 Wow, the Swans are really making a habit of these close games! I wonder if they will start charging more for their tickets, with all the extra drama and people having to stay until the very end of the game 😁 Thanks for posting the score Leigh. We have recovered from the Galapagos (and our souvenir covid from Peru) and are at the lake enjoying a break from the 100 degree heat at home. Go Swans! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docker123 Posted July 31, 2023 #210 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Buddy Franklin has announced his immediate retirement. https://www.news.com.au/sport/afl/lance-franklin-has-retired-on-the-spot-ending-famous-career/news-story/a52cc7c4d44ce01cd082c5328bab96c2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has certainly had a magnificent career. I undertand he told friends a few weeks ago he would retire at the conclusion of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Kristelle Posted July 31, 2023 #212 Share Posted July 31, 2023 I think he would of been 'encouraged to retire' at end of season anyway and this injury has just brought it forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted July 31, 2023 #213 Share Posted July 31, 2023 yep, either way this was the last season for him, and the injury has just brought it forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoWhiners Posted August 3, 2023 Author #214 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Oh noooo, say it aint so 😮 I will miss Buddy. I hope they have his replacement ready to go. Great career with the Swans. I hope they do something special for him. Go Swans! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ML, they have a couple of young forwards who have been playing well, in fact I think they play better without Buddy in the team. Hope it hasn't been too hot at the lake and you are relaxing.

The lake has been great--much cooler than home and we even got some rain 2 days ago. I am trying to soak up the cold--it will be very hot when we get home on Friday. At least my covid has finally backed off. Still a bit of a cough but otherwise better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

possum52 Posted August 5, 2023 #219 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Swans playing Giants tonight. I missed the quarter time scores as we are watching Cats v Power game. Part way through second quarter Sean’s are a point up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoWhiners Posted August 6, 2023 Author #223 Share Posted August 6, 2023 Another win, not as close as some but still sort of close. It looks like, right now, the Swans will make the playoffs. That would be nice. Thanks for posting the score. Go Swans! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
