Sydney small forward Ben McGlynn faces an uncertain future, with his latest premiership near-miss potentially doubling as an AFL swansong.McGlynn, who was one of a handful of Swans to struggle on Saturday, has now come agonisingly close to winning a grand final on four occasions throughout his 171-game career.The 31-year-old, who is uncontracted and not expected to be offered a new deal by the Swans, will soon find out if he has a chance to aim for elusive glory in 2017.Im not sure yet. Well work that out as the weeks progress, Swans coach John Longmire said, when asked about McGlynn after his sides 22-point loss in the season decider.Gun midfielder Josh Kennedy, who played alongside McGlynn at Hawthorn and likewise shifted to Sydney after the 2009 season, felt the pint-sized forward still had something to offer.He hasnt declared his retirement and the club havent denied him next years contract, Kennedy said.Fingers crossed he can get another crack, because it would be great.McGlynn was an established member of the Hawks side in 2007 but a knee injury meant he managed just three games the following year, when they won the flag.A hamstring injury in week one of the 2012 finals then kept McGlynn on the sidelines for the Swans dramatic grand-final win over his former side.McGlynn featured in both the 2014 and 2016 season deciders but tallied only nine disposals, five tackles and a behind on Saturday.I want to keep playing on, but if thats not the case Ill sit down with my wife and my manager and work out whats best for me going forward, McGlynn said last week, having spent a month in the reserves late in the regular season.Tom Mitchell is another out-of-contract Sydney player who may have featured in his final game for the club, albeit for a vastly different reason. Mitchell, who capped an impressive season with 26 disposals, two goals and 13 tackles in the grand final, is expected to request a trade and sign a lucrative deal with Hawthorn.The on-ballers management put contract talks on hold earlier this year, fuelling speculation he would leave the Swans.I dont know. Weve got to get through tonight before we worry about that, Longmire said of Mitchell on Saturday.Lets get through tonight and that will sort itself out. Mitchell admitted pre-match he would need to make a call on the future soon.Im not sure when that time will come. Im sure it will come soon, the 23-year-old told AAP.Its something I havent really thought about too much for the whole year.Its in the hands of the club and my manager so Im sure theyll sort through it.

There was a rare moment of unity in the boxing business at the end of Saturdays fight in Las Vegas when all three judges agreed on the score and both boxers demanded a rematch.Andre Ward won three light-heavyweight world title belts from Sergey Krusher Kovalev, but in his long battle for the hearts and pockets of boxing fans it is probably still a close fight. Ward is brilliant, a master in the boxing arts and has never received the respect his skills demand from the boxing public. He is not always slick on the eye, seldom gets a knockout in big fights and is just too darned nice.Ward survived a clean knockdown in round two when Kovalev found a rare hole in the Californian boxers brilliant defence; Ward went down heavy, smiled and jumped up quick. I smiled to say, OK, now the fight can start, said Ward.It was a fight of two very separate parts, seemingly divided equally between the two boxers; Kovalev won the first half and Ward the last six rounds. At the end the three identical scores of 114-113 were in Wards favour, he had swept rounds seven through twelve.Kovalev was desolate: I lost maybe three rounds. I want the rematch. Ward maintained his calm, his battered face a bruised accompaniment to his low-key victory speech: I had to get dirty to win and I did. I would have a rematch, sure.It is rare in a fight that divides ringside and television opinion for the judges to totally agree. It is odd, given the fact that only one point separated the pair, that people are screaming and hollering about a robbery. It was close, hard and Ward probably just deserved it. Kovalev certainly faded after six, a victim of the pace he set, Wards wrestling and possibly the years of shrinking his big body into the light-heavyweight limmit have now become a real drain.ddddddddddddWard was in trouble in the first, down in the second and struggling in the first half of the fight. It has been a long time since Ward had a test in front of him, a long time since he dominated at super-middleweight with masterclasses against the divisions best Carl Froch, Mikkel Kessler and Arthur Abraham. He has been inactive, unimpressive and should have probably taken a hard warm-up instead of Kovalev, who had made the light-heavyweight division his personal playground since 2013.Kovalev and his promoter, Kathy Duva, went long into the night moaning about the mix of judges, the referee, some undisclosed issues Kovalev had, Wards holding. It was a familiar worn list from the lips of most first-time losers; if one of the judges had scored it wide in Wards favour their claims would have some validity. A rematch makes sense.Ward and Virgil Hunter, the man who has guided him for decades, praised the right people, complimented the deserving and slipped away. Ward made no bold claims about how clearly he had won the struggle. Its professional boxing, its not always going to be cute. I got up off the canvas and won ugly, said Ward. A rematch will mean big money, even more than the five million Ward was paid. Kovalev walked away with two million dollars. Both their reputations improved.They will probably do it again and when it happens Ward will be in better fight condition and Kovalev will know not to slip into Wards clutches. If they are both going to be better, it makes their second fight a genuine modern classic. It will still be tight, trust me. ' ' '
