Looks like Horse is gone in Sydney ....

Dunno how he’ll go down as a coach. So much home and away success but you just can’t look past that putrid grand final record.

Not winning a flag with buddy at his peak has to go down as a failure.

The right call, simply couldn’t roll it back after the past 2 grand final beltings.

He'll go down as a big sore loser.

See ya later Horse ya big sook.

Along with Geelong, one of the easiest gigs in AFL coaching. AFL desperately wants Sydney winning every year. Suck shit on the GF losing legacy, EAD for being an ungracious loser in 2016 and jog the **** on.

Will never forget or forgive the whinging after our flag. Put a bit of a
sour taste on an day that was huge for all of us.

Should've just STFU and kept his thoughts to himself and let us celebrate as we were entitled to do.

 

[Dogs 13]

Either he’s taking over from Bevo in 2026 or wants to take on a role with the AFL so he can find the smoking gun that discloses the truth behind the stolen 2016 premiership.

I just saw the Bailey Smith commercial for Binge. It almost made me throw up.

On SM-A135F using BigFooty.com mobile app

When I saw it. All I could think of was who's the lady with the moustache trying to upsell me on a second rate streaming service?

 

[Testekill]

Nobody can deny his H/A success but Sydney's abject failure to even fire a shot in Grand Finals outside of one time ultimately comes from the top down.

knocked back the lucrative opportunity to return to his home state and coach the team he played for.

Not since the separation of Gweneth Virgina stones and Chris whatshisname, have we seen such an orchestrated and contrived conscious uncoupling as we are witnessing here. They were obviously just waiting for the clean air of the post draft to make the announcement.

I doubt her candles would help clean the air.

 

[geoffjennings79]

An ex-Swans coach walks into a bar, and the barman says "why the long mire...?"

Anyway, I always think of Longmire as Terry Malloy:

"You don't understand. I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender. I coulda been somebody, instead of a bum. And it's all because of those umpiring calls in the 2016 granny..."

 

[dergert]

Look forward to not hearing Longmire whinge about the umpires.... Until he inevitably goes to norf

Or gets a commentating gig, and does his first Bulldogs game...

 

[Sharpiesadog]

Glad whingy Mcwhingemire is gone. Could never win a flag without COLA, which gave them an extra 2 decent players back then.

The carry on after the 2016 grannie was a f******* disgrace.

Was?

 

[weltschmerz]

Was?

Eight years and two grand final thrashings later and he’s still hung up on “I coulda been a contender”.

 

[Sharpiesadog]

Fair point, well made.

 

[dogwatch]

Fair point, well made.

If he hadn't put his imprimatur on the whingeing it probably would have died out years ago. Longmire buying into it entrenched a BS narrative that has now become part of Bloods' folklore.

"How we got cheated out of a flag that was rightfully ours."

Don't want him anywhere near MWO. In fact he shouldn't be allowed to cross the Maribyrnong.

 

[Mr. Walker]

I know I am biased in this argument but I struggle to see any basis for complaint regarding Dogs throwing the ball. There were a couple of decisions that you could argue might have gone their way but throwing the ball I don’t see at all.

 

[bobs head soup]

Swans were well on top in Q2 that day.

To move the needle, Bevo gives the hard job on Kennedy to Libba, and sends Boyd to Ruck basically full-time

Those moves made the difference.

In response, Longmire had nothing.

End of story.

It's just sooking, period. Swans supporters may never come to terms with that loss, but that's their problem, not ours.

It’s gone further than Swan’s supporters though, it’s now just footy folk lore that we were gifted that flag.
