The life and journey of The Amartey Party

Hamilton, who is fresh off a contract extension which will see her remain at the club until at least the end of 2029, spoke of the struggles the program endured when they were established in 2022, and incredible insight into the Coffs Harbour meeting that was lead by Michael O'Loughlin and John Longmire earlier in the pre-season.

Meanwhile, Campbell reflects on the invaluable lessons he learned during the time he spent on the sideline while he was injured, and the confidence instilled from coach Dean Cox that has allowed him to return seamlessly into the Top 23. 

He previews our game against the Bombers on Sunday afternoon, and also looks ahead to a blockbuster double header that will see both the AFL and AFLW play on the same ground for the first time in club history.

Sydney Swans Executive Director of Club Performance, and 2012 Premiership-winning coach, John Longmire joins the More than Footy Podcast to reflect on some of the biggest moments of his illustrious playing and coaching career.

In this episode, Longmire touches on a handful of stories detailed in the book - from signing Lance Franklin from Hawthorn in 2014, where all but less than 10 people knew for less than 12 months before the announcement, to the pain of omitting Callum Mills from the 2024 Grand Final.

It is an incredible insight into the life and mind on one of the most influential figures in Sydney Swans history, and a must-listen for any fan who loves roller-coaster journeys built on resilience, perseverance and success.

Meanwhile, she reflects on what makes the Swans such a special club to be part of, including a silver lining moment that saw her watch a disastrous Swans defeat in 2022 that influenced her decision to sign with the club the following year.
