[swansrob]

If they're going with a small, I really hope it's Smith. He deserves to be rewarded.

Twitter says Smith wins.

Yep, Swans Facebook says the same thing. Right decision.

[Hartijon]

Smith is the right choice. Kennedy who is shaping up as the new Luke Ablett will keep his place for the same reason Luke did. The Swans like a big body around the ball in a game full of stoppages. Personally I think he was lucky to get in and even luckier to keep his spot as although I have some time for him,I have Teddy, Bevan,Smith, Rohan, Barlow in front of him.Even more so with our new game plan!

Someone update the thread title.

What happened with Moore? Is he OK?

moore or less ok?

For team balance you replace like for like so Smith was the obvious choice. He's been rewarded for top form in the ressies which is as it should be. This says to every player not in the team that you need to perform in the ACT team to get the chance of selection. Means Vez, Rohan, MOD etc need to keep the pedal to the metal and be ready for the next vacancy.

It will be interesting to see how Smith is used this week and into the future.

Have a good rehab Ben, we'll miss you.

Given the opposition we have over this 2-4 weeks, it would seem sensible to hope for one solution and hence one set of team adaptations over the period.

So, Smith seems the best bet, as a defensive small player based on last year's roles.

Swans website says that Nick Smith has been given the nod. Straight from Roos' mouth.

Good choice.Smith is most deserving in my opinion. Unlucky to not be in the team from RD1.

[stellation]

I'm fine with Smith.

[Jeffers1984]

Fair enough decision. I voted for the dynamacy of Veszpremi but Smith is a very good decision as well considering he has been tearing it up in the ressies.

Go Smitty!

[ShockOfHair]

Welcome back Smithie, but how will he be used? A run-with midfielder, up back or small forward?

[Robbo]

I think he could be given more of an attacking role considering he is replacing McGlynn. I would like to see this aswell.

[Bleed Red Blood]

Double Huh?? It's the Eski of old this year.

I have only seen half our games. I'm not suggesting he'd be close to being dropped but with Mattner, Shaw and Kennelly all much better defenders than forwards why not give him a run there, see if it really opens him up?
