Teams

[swans05]

im guessing it will look something like this

B:J Crouch(P Matera) L Barry(M Gardiner) C Bolton(B Staker)
HB:T Kennelly(A Hunter) L Rob Thom(A Hansen) B Mathews(A Sampi)
C:P Williams(D Kerr) J Bolton(B Cousins) N Fosdike(C Fletcher)
HF:R O'Keefe(M Nicoski) B Hall(D Glass) A Goodes(A Embley)
F:A Buchanan(D Banfield) M O'Loughlin(D Chick) N Davis(D Wirrpunda)
R:J Ball(D Cox) B Kirk(T Stenglein) L Ablett(C Judd)
INT Jolly(T Gaspar) A Schneider(B Jones) P Bevan(M Seaby)
S Dempster(A Selwood)

ball should get first crack in ruck for 5-10 mins
forward line should really stretch them so many options and we can just go bang at any stage e.g 4th qtr v geelong and 4th qtr v st kilda
put williams on kerr so he can run him around kerr only averages about 90 mins a game so willo run him off his feet
12 goals will win this

Just put a post on another thread, but Malceski is rumoured (on BF) to come in for Bevan.

I don't think this will happen, Jolly always seem to get the opening bounce.
It may be because Ball needs to save himself for second half heroics.

A couple of suspect match-ups there. This is where it will be won IMO.

I have every confidence that we can nullify the midfield, and that we can get enough quality supply down forward.

The question is whether we can dominate their backline.

Chick on MOL is a terrible match-up for them, but I hope Woosha persists with it.

Wirrpunda is VERY dangerous, and we need the speed and tackling of someone like Schneider or Buchanan to keep him in check.

Nicoski and Hunter need to be exploited by ROK and Davis.

They already have them in chains working the cotton field.

Well as long as we can then get them to make a couple of thousand sneakers for 40c an hour, I'll sleep better at night.

Great no changes for Swans - but emergencies reasonable choice.
