Swans AFLW star says club's men's and women's players closer than ever

AFLW star Cynthia Hamilton has praised the close relationship between Sydney Swans players in both the men's and women's teams following the Pullman Hotel scandal. The women's players are engaging in breathwork sessions together, with men's star Errol Gulden playing a key role in fostering unity. Hamilton described the club's culture and togetherness as "actually beautiful."

She urged fans to continue supporting the team, expressing confidence that the Swans will perform well in the upcoming Sydney derby against GWS at Henson Park. The women's team will play their home game in Sydney for the first time since the SCG double-header in round two, while the men's team recorded their lowest crowd of the season at the SCG.

Despite the current challenges, Hamilton believes the club's resilience and the strong support from fans have brought the teams closer than ever before.
