Sydney Swans star Daniel Hannebery admits he was tagged out of his side's shock loss to Port Adelaide too easily, but has pledged to work harder to overcome close-checking tactics in future.

Power veteran Kane Cornes was never far from the young Swan's side in the 18-point upset loss and kept him to just 13 possessions - well down on his season average of 27.
"I think I had a pretty honest assessment of my game … and I think fundamentally he out-worked me – he beat me on the day," Hannebery said on Wednesday night's episode of AFL 360.
"He was harder than me and I didn't work hard enough. It was a real lesson for me and if it happens in the coming weeks I'll be better equipped to deal with it.
"There's no doubt on the day he and a lot of the other Port guys worked harder than us.
"I don't think I consciously didn't bother to run – I think he played it smarter. The way that he persisted and the way he outworked me he probably did get into my head a little bit, but I've got to be able to work through that and be better than that.
"When that comes again I've got to be a bit mentally tougher than I was on the weekend and not give in like I suppose I did."
The unexpected defeat could have dire consequences for the Swans' battle to secure a top-four berth, but Hannebery said it had served as a timely wake-up call for the team.
"We can't just go out there and expect to win games of footy," he said.
"We're not a side that's ever done that and we probably don't have the talent to be able to do that.
"We'll work together as a team and work really hard. That's what makes us a good footy team – when we all work hard together as a unit."
