    I wouldn't. He correctly predicted that Melcho would play, and he only said Jetta might miss. Longmire confirmed that Jetta was indeed in doubt early in the week, so Balym was spot on.
    Officially on the Reid and Sumner bandwagon!

      On current form Johnson should hold his spot , if he is dropped he's very stiff.
      LRT on the other hand, though playing out of position, will be very lucky if he holds his spot, it will be on reputation alone.

        LRT is a better defender then Johnson.

          North dont have any decent defenders...
          I would have classed Firrito (sp?) as a good to very good defender.

          I think we need Bird in as a tagger, who is going to sit on Swallow? In the past it has been Cap'n Kirk.

            On reputation, as I said.

              Those are logical changes - wouldn't have a problem with any of them though would feel sorry for Johnson. Also not sure Longmire would make that many changes in one go ... I don't think we've had 3 unforced changes in a while!

                  Our forward line remains a mess. Maybe we can beat North with it but we will come apart against better sides. My suggestion is Seaby to Full Forward and forward pocket rucking duties,.Reg who has delivered terribly and turned over repeatedly to CHF releasing Goodes to play in the middle. Reg is a good mark,good reader of the play,kicks straight on a set shot and needs a refresher move to spark him back to top form. LRT can take his spot in the backlines with no loss for the team. This forward line might actually function particularly with Reid, Mc Glynne,Bolton and TDL filling the flanks. If TDL is not fit I would support Bevan's return exclusively as a forward.

                      I think of all times over the last 2 years, we need Goodes in the forward line now.

                        Either of them could be off to a flyer.

                          Eggsactly! The high flyers like Swallow might be too fast for our Bird to catch.

                            Is it a concern that the Bird is flying south in winter but we're in southern hemisphere?

                              Unless our Bird is an albatross.

                                Co-captain Jarrad McVeigh has just confirmed that the Swans will blood their fifth debutant for 2011. Lewis Johnston will make his senior debut on Saturday against the Kangaroos.
