Swannies Phil Harman (centre right) and Dave Diviny (centre left) with their “You can leave the country. But you can’t leave the Club. Honk!” trophies in Hanoi yesterday.

Hanoi coach, Adrian “Ado” Enright reports on the departures in Hanoi of Phil Harman and Dave Diviny:

Yesterday saw two of our Hanoi-based Swans depart for big things outside of Vietnam. Dave Diviny and his partner, Jane, will head back to Melbourne after more than a year with the Club. Dave was instrumental not only in his on-field work for the club, but showed his great enthusiasm and commitment by immediately putting his hand up to help with the Club’s finances and organisation of charity events.

Phil has been a long term Swannie, and will pack his boots and head over to Jakarta with the family. Phil has been a consistent performer with the Swans, and was part of the team that achieved its most successful result in the Asian Championships in 2011. Phil has also always been there to support the Club off the field and will be much missed by us all – especially the guys who have played alongside of Phil over the last few years.

Whilst Dave and Phil both leave Vietnam, they will always be a Swannie and we look forward to keeping in touch, and hopefully seeing Phil play with the Jakarta Bintangs in his new home.

Both Dave and Phil received “You can leave the country. But you can’t leave the Club. Honk!” trophies designed by Ross McRae Design.

All the best guys, from all of the Swans.
