You were spot on Ugg. This one really took me by surprise. Let the discussion begin.

Lamb and Rohan in...Mitchell and Bjack out. I reckon Mitch may be rested rather than dropped, and BJack given more time to get that exciting game of his properly tuned.
I think we should remember this round for a trivia night down the track,
Question may be 'When did Tommy Mitchell miss a senior game for the Swans?" Cos this may be the only one.Comment

I see what Ugg's been hinting at: Jude's top ten pumpup tunes.
No. 1: Berlin Chair!
Barbecue stopper.

In the recent article about Parker re-signing, he talks about Sam Reid being good to go this weekend, he just didn't know whether it would be via the reserves or whether Reid would have a "golden ticket" to get straight back into the seniors. 1) I am surprised this didn't get more attention from RWO, or anywhere else and; 2) Interesting that Parker refers to a 'golden ticket' as something that some players get. So much for team first. As people have been saying on this thread - we will learn a lot about the true selection philosophy of the club over the next few weeks. I think we will learn that there is fact no 'team first' philosophy.
And regarding the article, I read it again just to be sure what I'm saying is correct, and they have deleted all this content since I first read it. The deletions (from memory) also included talking about the loss to Collingwood. Strange."Take me down to the Paradise City where the grass is green and the Swans win pretty."Comment

I recall those comments too. It was confusing but pretty sure Parker was saying Reid was good for the Geelong game rather than this one.
The "golden ticket" comment seems to be moot because as I read it a reserves win this week, which is very likely, means no reserves game next week for Reid to come back into - so if you want to get a seniors run before finals, they've run out of time to come back via reserves.Comment

Bird didn't look right to me last week for much of the game. Copped quite a heavy whack early on. He's never quick but after that, was getting run down every time he went near the ball. I thought he'd be subbed but McGlynn didn't do much in the end. Could be carrying a niggle and needs a rest.Comment

We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his timeComment

I'm delighted for Gaz. This may be his only game for the year, but what a great move by the coaching staff to (deservedly) give him a taste/reminder of firsts to help keep him motivated for next year.
Good move to rest Mitchell and recall Jed. BJ could also do with a full game in the seconds. Overall I think it's good, disciplined player management by the coaching staff.Today's a draft of your epitaphComment

I don't see us winning the premiership without Jetta or an equivalent: Rohan. I very much doubt this would be his only game for the year. I'd feel confident saying that this is clearly part of a strategy to get composed x-factor pace back into the side for the finals."Take me down to the Paradise City where the grass is green and the Swans win pretty."Comment

I cannot see the selection committee planning for 2014 when 2013 is still going.
Presumably they see a 'role' for Rohan this year.Comment
