Longmire expresses shock at Swans players' bans

Former Sydney Swans coach John Longmire expressed shock and anger after five players were banned for the rest of the season for breaching club standards.

John Longmire, the Swans' longest-serving coach, described the situation as causing 'deep sadness' and said the suspensions are 'flattening' for all involved. The banned players include Isaac Heeney, Chad Warner, Nick Blakey, Riley Bice and James Jordon, who were stood down on Wednesday. somethingsdifferent.biz

Longmire indicated that on-field ramifications are not a priority for the club, and Victoria Police detectives are expected to arrive in Sydney as part of the ongoing investigation.
