homeschoolmom Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 why, why, why are they called the Swans?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cappie Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 The 'Swans were originally the South Melbourne Football Club they became "The Swans" due to an influx of players from Western Australia whose state symbol is the Black Swan. In 1981 the Swans received the permission of the VFL to play 11 home matches in Sydney the following season. The first match was played at the SCG on Sunday 28th March 1982, when a crowd of 15 764 saw the Swans defeat Melbourne by 29 points. The Swans’ initially successful foray into Sydney continued in July, as they beat North Melbourne to win the Night Series Premiership, and prize money of $105 000. They then became known as The Sydney Swans. : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
