A devastated John Longmire conceded picking Sam Reid for Saturday’s AFL grand final against Geelong was a mistake, admitting he felt as if he personally let his players, staff, board and Swans supporters down | VinceRugari SMHsport

Devastated Sydney coach John Longmire conceded he got it wrong by selecting an injured Sam Reid for the AFL grand final against Geelong, admitting he felt as if he personally let his players, staff, board and Swans supporters down.– the heaviest sustained by the Swans in more than seven years, stretching back to round 16, 2015 against Hawthorn, in an 89-point loss at Stadium Australia.

“We really let ourselves down and our supporters down, no question. From the first bounce, the game looked as foreign as what we’ve played it this year. There’s no element that we got right.” “We’ll look back and reflect on it and go through it and work out why, but leading up to the game, there was nothing that stood out,” he said.“No aspect of the game looked like the way we wanted to play, and we hardly got anything right, from the selection of Sam to the way the game looked.

Asked how he was feeling himself, Longmire was stark: “I just personally feel like you let a lot of people down and let your players down, you let your supporters down, you let your staff down, let your board down. That’s how you feel.”There was, unsurprisingly, a sombre mood in Sydney’s rooms after the match, as players embraced friends, family and each other as they tried to wrap their heads around what had just unfolded.
