Greg Swann clarifies comments on quarter length and fan concerns

AFL executive Greg Swann clarified his remarks from a discussion on quarter length, stating that when he said "fans don't care," he meant they are indifferent to whether quarters last 30 or 32 minutes. Swann emphasized that fans care deeply about the game and often provide feedback regarding rule changes. He acknowledged the positive attendance and viewership numbers, which reflect overall fan satisfaction. Swann's comments came amid ongoing debates about shortening game lengths, while he also supported a recent video technology decision during a semi-final. Concerns about a specific incident involving Ollie Dempsey were discussed, where the video review did not definitively overturn the goal umpire's initial call.
