the other incredible aspect is that up untill round 23, particularly the last third of the season GWS were imperious in close games. just had that toughness and belief that they'd win from anywhere close, and came from nowhere to beat hawks.The Daniels mistake was horrific. Could have chewed 30 seconds and put them over four goals up.
I still thought they would hold on. It’s way worse than ‘97 in terms of choking. It’s the stuff of legend.
the thing they kept doing in both finals late on was handballing long and blindly, over their head sometimes at stoppages, with most going straight to the opposition for a clearance, i cant believe that wasnt corrected after the Swans final.
