Strong opening quarter in today's @neaflofficial practice match at Tom Wills Oval. GWS with the slight upper hand but tight contest so far. pic.twitter.com/2N7mTYAxZ7

I think that's Newman behind Sinclair?
I also make out Laidler, Talia, O'Riordan, Fisher, Murray, Leonardis, Rose
Think the guy in front of Sinclair might be Ronke, but haven't seen him in the flesh before.Comment

Aliir on managed game time, probably wait for the first quarter sting to get out of the way before he gets a run.Comment

You can just see the top of Aliir's head in the quarter-time huddle picture. He's standing behind Talia.Comment

Dawson and Allir came on after 1/4 time. Allir a bit rusty
Jack continues as a back man.
Oroidon kicked the fist goal of the second quarterComment

Thanks Mountain Man. I've been trying to glean something from social media about today's match, but the coverage is appalling. No live stream (which I get as it's a practice match), but Twitter and Facebook have been woeful.Comment

Sydney Swans defender Aliir Aliir ticked the first box in his return to the senior team after finishing Friday?s NEAFL practice match at Olympic Park unscathed.
Not only unscathed but as one of the best performed in the hitout against GWS.
The 22-year-old, in his first competitive run since last year's Preliminary Final, was injected into the game in the second quarter before successfully running out his allotted minutes at Tom Wills Oval.
Trailing by three goals at three-quarter-time, the NEAFL Swans booted 4.1 to 0.5 to run out 8.6 (54) to 6.16 (52) victors.
It didn't take long for the No.36 to find his his feet, gaining an early touch before quickly adapting to the tempo of the game.
Aliir?s smarts and composure, traits which footy fans witnessed in his 13 games last season, was on show from the beginning.
He intercepted well and took the game on numerous times to earn full praise from the coaches on the boundary line.
Ruckman Callum Sinclair and defender Jeremy Laidler were also sound, while Shaun Edwards collected plenty of the ball across half-back.Comment
