A tough day on the road as the Swans went down to the Toronto Dingos.

Despite the result, there were plenty of positives to take away, with the squad showing determination and effort right to the final siren.

We’ll regroup, get back to work at training, and turn our attention to next week’s challenge.

Thanks to everyone who made the trip and supported us from near and far. ❤️🤍
