I always thought that this would be my last contract at the Sydney Swans.
00:06
I was thinking that the end of next year was probably, if I could get through to that point,
00:10
it would be a good time to get through to that. Whilst my head was trying to talk myself in to
00:17
keep going to the end of next year, my gut was saying that's about enough. It's time to rest,
00:25
time to reflect on what I've been a part of to this point in time and time to re-energise.
00:32
I couldn't help but thinking as we sit in this magnificent facility
00:37
and once again the record crowds, the record membership, the guarantee, I thought if I'm
00:45
going to do it, probably now's the time to do it. I wanted to thank everyone that I've
00:49
been involved with. I wanted to thank our supporters who have been absolutely fantastic,
00:57
so supportive of myself and the team, so enthusiastic. This year was another level
01:03
of the SED, I've never seen anything like it. To John, to have a coach or to be involved in
01:14
an organisation for so long and to have an impact like you have had is profound. I've
01:20
been fortunate enough to see that first hand and I think everyone here from staff,
01:26
players, current and past, we say exactly the same.
