After watching the Swans last two games, I believe that our backline is woeful simply because we miss the Irish's attacking, direct, fast and penetrating runs out of defence.
Upon the return of Kennelly from his at present permanent 2-3 week shoulder injury, the backline will straighten up and deliver the ball better to our forward line - which is struggling for decent lace out precise passes due to the pressure exerted from the opposition and the lack of skill level from the current defence and midfield.
I believe Kennelly is our MVP - along with BBB Hall - and the Swans stocks will marketedly improve upon his return.
When is his bl**y return anyway, I thought it was supposed to be Round 2 or 3 ??!!! I hope his injury isn't an injury a la O'Loughlin's knee and hammy's over the years where it lingers for 8-9 weeks instead of the initial forecast of 4-5 weeks for Kennelly's shoulder.....
