Changes Round 17 V Carlton

[aguy]

Allir Allir just placed on long-term injury list...will this mean a call up for Biggs or debut for Robinson?

wonder if this may mean there's an injury we don't know about...hmmmm

Well we already knew allir was out for the season with a shoulder injury requiring surgery. That is the reason he's been placed on long term injury list.

Biggs a possibility, given he plays a similar role to the missing Shaw. But probably only if the club doesn't think Jones is right to go.

I doubt we would elevate someone just to cover jones ( and shaw) especially against Carlton. If we were to elevate someone it would be because they were the next to be elevated anyway. Having said that I am not against Biggs elevation. To keep the Star Wars theme going from a month ago Then we would have jake Lloyd, Luke and Biggs all in the team. Father, son and best friend.

The tweet from AFL_PKeane stated no replacement named.

Yeh I meant an injury from the seniors, possibly a mid may be out and we'd bring Robinson in or a defender injured and we'd bring Biggs in

Ugg would they be any chance to announce the upgrade at the same time as team selection or would it have had to be announced already?

[ugg]

Patrick Keane tweets the changes as submitted by the clubs. I guess theoretically the Swans could wait until just before team announcements to announce an upgrade but I don't see why they would go to that kind of trouble?

There's plenty of inner nerd here. I assure you.

In: Towers
Out: Jones

Hmm.

[Conor_Dillon]

Towers in for Jones!
Did anyone pick that?
Exciting to see another first gamer, really hope he lights it up! Shame that he's a 99% chance to start as sub, should be an AFL rule that debutants can't start in the vest

Still don't understand how allir being on long term injury list would imply an injury to someone else but that's ok . We find out team soon

Hmm.

Come on Ugg give us more than hmm haha. What do you really think?

[aguy]

Ah towers. Interesting. I think that means gaz will play off half back and bj will play small forward. I kinda like that setup
