Changes for Round 15 - GWS

[DK_]

It's a bit unfortunate to be brought as a late change for your debut.. No time for family to come, get your head right etc

Maybe they have called his parents and they are in town, but keeping it quiet. And maybe that's how Ugg knows.

I said it a couple of weeks ago that the Swans always like to make a big deal about their first game players...would be very surprised if Membrey was a late-in

Not always. IIRC, X was a late addition to the team when he made his debut. Not sure if his parents got the chance to fly up from Melbourne to see him come on about 5 minutes before the end, in the pouring rain, and get one possession (and one goal assist, to be fair).

At least big brother was at the game!

[ugg]

X was an Xceptional (haha geddit) case because Morton injured himself in the warmup. He wasn't expecting to play.

If you had to stab in the dark, what might these late change/s be?

If I had to stab in the dark I'd make sure Eddie was standing very close by.

Again when ugg says that it makes me think the likely late change is Rohan and not membrey

as would I

Looking forward to seeing Andrew Bogut run around against the swannies this week for GSW, I'm a big fan

Steph Curry is in range the second the ball is in his half, we probably need to put Nick Smith on him.

Tim Membrey's name has come up once again as a target for other clubs. This time in an article in the Age by Gary Lyon. Maybe we will have to give him a some game time to keep him happy. Here's the part on Membrey:

Tim Membrey (Sydney): The one position in which you are going to struggle to get a game in Sydney?s best team right now, unless your name is Franklin, Tippett, Reid or Goodes, is as a marking forward. Membrey, at 188 centimetres, was a star under-18 forward and would probably be playing as a legitimate third tall in 12 of the competition's 18 teams right now.
Hasn?t done himself any favours by not being as fit as he could be, but after a 47-goal debut season in the NEAFL last year, he has kicked 35 this season and has been named as an emergency for the Swans. Plenty of sides are in the market for a tall goalkicker.

Ha ! Very good Wolfie!

Suely goodes will retire and membrey willtake his place iin 2015

I think finances will largely dictate this to be honest, plus I'd like to see Goodesy go out on top.

I'll trust the list management re Membrey but there may well be some interest, maybe a one year deal to give him a chance. I'll be keeping an eye on him tomorrow but it would be good for him to get a taste this year to prove himself

At the very best we should get some trade currency if we don't delist him

[Doctor]

Wouldn't be surprised if there was a late change or 2.

Based only on the non-inclusions in the reserves, I tend to agree. I raised an eyebrow (the left, i can't raise the right) when I noticed that.

[Auntie.Gerald]

Im fairly excited for tonights game

I have this feeling that Brandon Jack is going to kick 3 or 4 tonight thru his relentless pressure and starting to understand his fellow forwards movement. My gut feeling is that the coaches would have had focussed on Brandon's defensive pressure all pre season and this season........but after the last couple of weeks being a little wayward with his kicks i am guessing it is now this area the coaches would have worked on with BJ

go my son !!!
