Amartey did not play. Mcclean did most of the rucking.

Listed players i remember were stoddart, reynolds, mcclean, fox, rowbottom, mcinerney, rose, ronke, bell, foot, wicks and pink.

Sydney Uni start 2019 with hard-fought win against Swans

[ootf]

Uni showed much more cohesion with some nice moves out of the backline and they had a proper ruckman and a true forward in Davies. Some nice things from Bell, Ronke, Rowbottom, Stoddart at times but not enough of them. Errant hand pass count high.

Tucker not playing yet? What number did McLean get? Which ex Swans lined up for the Students?

I don't find it at all strange that we are beaten. Apart from the fact that it was just a practice match, as pointed out already we had a team of mostly young and inexperienced players and top ups. It is understandable that first year players, although talented, may be outplayed by other players, who were also talented enough to get on AFL lists, but who are more seasoned and, in some cases who have played many AFL games (e.g. Towers).

Others may know which/how many ex-AFL players Uni Sydney have. But they don’t have Towers - he is at University of NSW-Eastern Suburbs as player/coach - and Xavier Richards and Craig Bird both left Uni Sydney end last year.

Hiscox might be the only listed ex Swan left.

Many ex Academy players like Josh Stern, Bailey Stewart, Ned and Joey Reinhard, Darcy Baron-Hay

McLean wore 28 for this game (I think), #21 was running around but not sure who wore it. If anyone can supply names for #46 onward, it would be appreciated :-)

Might have something to do with him doing his ACL under 12 months ago

Many thanks ootf. Some great shots there.

Richards is playing for Balwyn in the EFL this year. That would mean his coach is Eade.

I was aware he was returning from injury but I thought he was further advanced. However I see his injury is listed as being still "indefinite" on the latest edition of the injury list. Haven't we seen him running since over a month ago?

Yes he's running but apparently there is a new policy at the Swans of not rushing them back. Let's see if that applies to Buddy.

Buddy didn't do an ACL.
