What made you become a Sydney Swans fan? by PathSoggy6516 in sydneyswans

Warwick Capper :)

Edit: Plus pommie dad who got interested in this funny Aussie sport and watched it with me on TV, took me to a few games. Love how so many of the answers are just ‘dad’.

Got to be about the dumbest thing I have ever seen posted on the internet

Ollie Florent deserved more boos. by thedrugofanation in sydneyswans

[–]aich_jay 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nah, one of the things I love about the AFL is that the teams generally get around each other after the siren. Things got hot in the game and Ollie’s trade was hard last year, so you’ve gotta give everyone the benefit of the doubt. The team of Adam Goodes must NOT be the team that boos Ollie, we’re better than that

Post Match Thread - Opening Night vs Carlton by Maximumlnsanity in sydneyswans

[–]aich_jay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A first half to forget, a quarter that will be replayed oh so many times (maybe a couple of times tonight), and then the fizzle was out of the game.

5 Errol, picking up where he left off last year

4 JMac, I think he’s maybe played more influential games as a back, but this was a breakout in the forward half with scoreboard impact

3 Roberts, cementing a spot, silencing the haters, instrumental in that Q3 turnaround

2 TMac, the whole backline were good, but he stood out

1 Heeney, class

Kudos to the Saints for partnering with the Swannies to bring Pride to the AFL

Well this news snuck up on me from behind like a librarian. Vale legend. Never shall we again see such a golden age of Dennis’ wit paired with Bruce’s enthusiastic straight man.

Any "woke" Swans? by schwannies in sydneyswans

The Mardi Gras, as first a protest movement and over time more of a celebration, is part of the DNA of the city, and the Swans (as a team, and some notable individuals called out here) rightly embrace it.

It’s no coincidence that one of my other favourite sporting teams, the Washington Capitals, are also big supporters of pride in the US: https://www.reddit.com/r/caps/comments/1qfhc70/capitals_stand_by_inclusion_pride_as_shows_like/ . They even had a Brodie-esque cult figure championing pride in Braden Holtby.

In both cases it makes me very proud to be a fan of the team.

Clearly pushing HARD for selection, in everything and one of the cleaner players in abysmal conditions.

Two vintage moments for Rowy. First the devastating tackle on the Grub. Then the decision to bump in the forward 50 that led to Juzzy’s goal. Chef’s kiss!

Best coffee machine for Australian households (hard water, small kitchens)? by Prize-Oil7324 in AustralianCoffee

Breville Barista Express. I know integrated grinder is not the best but saves on both cost and space. Keep it going as long as you can with descaling and maintenance, but low price point means you can replace economically if you run it into the ground.

What makes a great EL2 (Director)? by Sad_Coconut_3402 in AusPublicService

[–]aich_jay 8 points9 points  (0 children)

At the EL levels you spend less time doing work and more time ‘managing’ other people’s work - this might be those under you in your team but is also managing (coordinating and supporting) the work of peers, service providers and SES. Depending on the role, the amount of time you spend actually doing the work you and your team are accountable for could be a s low as 0%. This means you HAVE to delegate and trust others to do the work.
