For the first time ever, the Sydney Swans Guernsey Presentation and Hall of Fame Dinner will be available to stream LIVE on SwansTV from 7pm this Monday, March 12.
Swans fans across Australia and the globe will get the opportunity to watch the moment when all players receive their prestigious Sydney Swans guernsey and hear the captain’s speech ahead of the season ahead.
Last year, co-captain Jarrad McVeigh spoke about the significance of not only putting on the red and white guernsey but what it means to play in it. It was a memorable moment that set the tone for the players as they progressed to the second week of the finals.
Fans will also be able to watch some former greats of the Club be inducted into the Swans Hall of Fame, which for the first time, is being held during the Guernsey Presentation Dinner. At the last Hall of Fame event, Brownlow Medallist Peter Bedford was elevated to Bloods Legend status, while 2005 premiership heroes Brett Kirk, Michael O’Loughlin, Leo Barry and coach Paul Roos were inducted. Who will be next? Tune in on Monday night to find out!

Fans are reminded that while we are very pleased to provide this service to those who can’t attend, the live stream may not work for everyone.
The stream will be of medium quality to cater for the largest number of people possible. Please understand that there is the possibility of dropouts and technical issues.
Slow internet connections and older computers may make viewing the stream more problematic.
You will be able to start the stream at any point during the night and it will work as any regular video on SwansTV. If you can currently view videos on SwansTV, you should be able to view the stream.
Common streaming problems include:
Apple computers require Microsoft Silverlight to play our content so you will need to install that before you can watch any videos. It is a free download.
Check that you don’t have any other programs open that heavily use your internet connection as this can cause the video to load slowly, or to pause and drop out. Programs that may cause such problems include Skype, YouTube, ITunes etc.
The live stream will run continuously until the conclusion of the event at around 11pm, and supporters can also follow and engage in the evening on the Swans’ social media pages Twitter and Facebook.
We hope you enjoy watching the 2012 Sydney Swans Guernsey Presentation and Hall of Fame Dinner.
