I love this video may it always stay - my dad is John Todd - great family memories of Dad finally achieving after a long slogg
My deepest condolences to you and your family. I never had the chance to meet the great man in person but I’m proud to have a small family connection with him and Swans (My uncle was a runner for swans under his tenure as coach). Basso hearts broke when the news of his passing broke. Swans forever 🖤🤍🦢🤍🖤
Ron Boucher. I never knew. What a legend.
It's just marvellous to have this.
Swans were a helluva side back then with Ron Boucher, Leon Baker and other champs.
Deep respect from a South Freo supporter.
Great vid. Can't believe the changerooms. Come a long way since then!
I was just an 8yo kid back then. Too poor to get a grand final ticket, so I listened on the radio (the match wasn’t televised live) and cheered with every possession. All I wanted was a premiership for my beloved Swans. This day was one of the highlights of my childhood.
I was there that day , I was 19 years old
The team looks so young , 41 years ago
Now I am 60 years old, TIME FLYS ,,
It was a great time , I was there the next
2 Years , the 84 Grand Final was special
I was at the 2nd Semi againt East Fremantle
We got done , it rained like hell , my big
Brother and myself loved swans , we would
Not leave till the game finshed , we both real
Swan supporters , stuck up for Swans , we both 6 ft 2 , with big Mouth's we were surrounded by East Fremantle supporters
Who gave it to us , as you can guess they
In there minds had already won the Grand
Final , I said to them at the end I stick by
My Swans , see you in the GRAND FINAL
they gave it us, we would not even make
The Grand final , well History we tell you
Swans won the 84 Premiership , It was
Very Satisfied , UP THE BLACK & WHITE'S
Come on the SWANS
They were a Special team , my dear Dad
Was a East Fremantle supporter , but he
Also loved the SWANS , bit of a connection
With Ex Coach and player Melrose , (won
The Simpson medal ) I think , should Goggle
To see , no use you memory , to much Technology now
Ps Dad dead now , these sort of things
Make you think about the old days , which
Includes Family
Pss I was under the CLOCK for the 2nd
Semi , I always wondered what the East
Fremantle supporters That gave it to us
That day thought about the Grand final
They loss , love to hear from you , as I
Said the Two of us , were haveing Banter
With 20 to 30 People , it was good times
I wonder if you would be same today , really
The crowds were magnificent
Swans Supporter Forever
Remember that day like it was yesterday. Partied for weeks. Also a good watch is the 1982 win against Collingwood with John Todd forcing them into wear an alternative strip for the first time ever and since. Good old Swanies forever.
a young mike richardson and leon baker....
When WAFL was a crowd drawer
rather those days then the AFL
The opening music sounds like a horror flick
AussieTV It was for Claremont
When West Aussie men were men. From the late 90s onwards when it all went soft.
@MUFC Soccer is the most overrated sport played by wimpy flops that dive, fake injuries and pretend they’ve been shot just to get free kicks or opponents carded < Aussie rules football is the best sport in the world and is a real man’s sport played by real men that can handle contact and real tackles.
By 2100, soccer will continue continue to be AFL’s bitch and will be laughed at because of its ridiculous diving culture. You are dreaming if you think soccer will ever overtake Aussie rules or if you think you’re going to convert the people who support the Great Australian Game into soccer wankers by spamming this stupid comment on every single Aussie rules video you loser.
Big Bad Ron
