agreed and how could we drop nicksy? hes finally back in town

does nicks demand a KP defender?

[dread and might]

he should

The way Nicks has been playing he should not be taken lightly by any team.

in a full strength swans team oloughlin and hall take the two main defenders then okeefe then nicks would be hard to cover for most teams

if we have our best forwards playing as well as possible we could have hall, oloughlin, okeefe, nicks, davis and schnieder (sp) thats a pretty hard group to stop for any defence

not necessarily, look at brisbane, leppitsch doesnt line up on oloughlin, he'll usually float. you really only need one KP defender against us, mind you, a damned good one!

[swansrule100]

how many sides boast more than 1 or 2 key defenders who are actually great players ??

i cant think right now... umm brisbane with leppistch and bradshaw and michael i guess have a fair few

SYDNEY is likely to include Michael O'Loughlin (knee tendinitis), Leo Barry (ankle), Jason Ball (hamstring), and Stephen Doyle (hamstring) on Saturday night.

"They're on modified programs at the moment, but they will all train on Wednesday, and it will be determined from there where they are going," Swans spokesman Stephen Brassel said.
