Josh Jones polled third in the Tony Gillies Medal, with Kaleb Crowhurst close in fourth.... Kaleb's 52 goals saw him also place second in the Gerry Griffiths Medal. For the Roosters, Jack Dadd's 29 goals saw him take out the Leading Goal Kicker for the Under 17s, to go with the SportsTG Coach's Award and a third place in the Best and Fairest. Harry Hagon was a runaway winner in the Under 14s Best and Fairest. Tom Aitken kicked 25 goals to lead the Under 14s Goal Kicking.

Burke & Smyth Real Estate best went to Edward George. Player's Player was won by Michael Parker.

21.01.2022 CONDUCT ON GAME DAY The AFL North West NSW have this year looked to set a standard of RESPECT across our League, and we as a Club support this without reservation in a desire to maintain a positive sporting environment. Recent times there has been concerns raised generally within our League about conduct on game days, and particularly in relation to umpires. Be aware that the League is not accepting of umpire abuse, and free kicks, 50 metre penalties or other sanctions may b...e applied where umpires are subjected to abuse, including from off field officials and spectators. Beyond this, please be mindful that as an official or as a spectator your conduct is representative of the Swans as a Club. Whilst we all enjoy vocal support at the footy, there is a line where this becomes disrespectful and abusive that we want to stay on the positive side of. We simply ask that you show the respect to our League officials and members or supporters of other Clubs that we would expect to have extended to us. #setthestandard #respectfulredandwhite See more

Burke & Smyth Real Estate best was Ed George. Player's Player went to Ryan Baker.

09.01.2022 #Highlights AFL North West - NSW Women's Grand Final Gunnedah & District Australian Football Club v Tamworth Swans AFC

08.01.2022 What a massive day yesterday for the Swans! Apologies for a late update for anyone that wasn't tuned in to live streams. We are not sure on official final scores, but the women's team were brave throughout and particularly in a fourth quarter rally to go down by 10 points. The men's were in it up to their neck at three-quarter time before Gunnedah kicked away to win in the neighborhood of 50 points. Congratulations to the junior Roosters, with years of patience rewarded wit...h an Under 14s and Under 17s Premiership double. At the Dome, the A-grade Swans put in a determined performance, going down 50-22 in a super effort in their debut season. Thanks to all involved with the Swans in 2020, in what has been a wonderful year in challenging circumstances. Special thanks to volunteers who have supported our footballers and netballers. We couldn't be prouder of the efforts from all our players yesterday who couldn't have done any more to represent #themightyredandwhite. Thanks also to our wonderful sponsors Burke & Smyth Real Estate, Stor-Mate, Danny Designer Jeweller, Shoppingworld Newsagency Tamworth, Thrift Plumbing, Post Office Hotel Tamworth, Wests Entertainment Group and Kensell Holden for their support through the year.
