Reserves thread

[footyhead]

Thought I would start it - so I know where to look if some one is good enough to post the reserves news here TA.

[Mike_B]

They went down by 38 points to Belconnen (I believe) - can't tell you much else.

Scooter possessions prediction: 32

Final score was Magpies 14-12-96 Swans 1-10-58

swans goals to
Fitzpatrick (top up player) 2
Eriksen: 2
Thewlis: 1
Potter: 1
Dempster: 1
McGlone: 1

a very unispiring game. Scrappy in wet conditions.

Report to follow

Footy Head, Scooter again played well. Was dominate, but not as damaging. Missed a couple of vital shots on goal (after I wrapped him last week ).

I only saw the final quarter and by then it looked like a lot of tired bodies chasing leather in the rain. However, I noticed Schmidt do some very nice things indeed that indicated good skills and determination. Also saw Davis and Rogers take a couple of very strong contested marks - impressive given it was raining.

Actually they have posted the Reserves results now on the Swans site... How long does it take them to do anything over there ? They are the last place I go... the order is redand whiteonline... the : bigfooty then AFL.com then the Swans a long long forth !!!
Anyways I was quite upset to notice that on the Swans site, they don't even list Mcgloane on the BOG list, when every body else has him in the top five.
This is the last I will say about Mcgloane untill he is either given a game with the club or he is delisted or goes else where.
I beleive he should already been given a run in the seniors and I only hope that the kid getts better for the experience of being over looked (I hope he becomes more determind, and makes somthing of himself in the AFL).
As a consolation to my sence of dissapointment for Scooter, I have developed a perverse desire to see him be picked up by another club at the end of this year and for him to go on and become a champion there, (If he indeed does not get a run with us this year). It would not be the fist time that this sort of thing has happend to the Swans, and I want it to because I still feel that our player managment is a little too elitist, and this along with the strange effects of an out of balance payment system to average players (because of the salary cap) is probably *%&$%^ with the group psychology and and club in general more than people realise.
