Looks like Campbell is the seniors' sub.

It will be interesting to see how the ruck rotation is handled, now that the 209cm McAndrew has been included for us and Zac Smith is coming back from injury for the Suns. It might be a bit much for McAndrew, in his first VFL game, to play first ruck against the experienced Smith. So, it will probably be Amartey doing the bulk of the work. But that should mean, due to Gold Coast's injury problems, that McAndrew will spend a bit of time rucking against a part timer, who will be around 15cm shorter.

I have an feeling about McAndrew - a recent Rugby convert who in one match I saw brought some real mongrel and determination.

Still skinny but has the height to be very effective.

Grateful for any reports

From the website: "Please note playing numbers may differ for some players this week." which explains my confusion last week. It also includes the players numbers for this week (thankyou Swans). Team Selection: VFL Round 2

P. McCartin looking like a gun in defence today. Could help our KPD woes in the midseason. Would be awesome having the brothers in defence.

Bell busy and Logan slots a tricky set shot early

I've just arrived at the game. Swans Reserves up 2 - 3 15 to 1-4 10 at Q time. I will update with observations after this.

Would greatly appreciate updates aprilbr!

Nice soccer goal by Clarke.

Nice soccer goal by Clarke.

Him and Bell are looking Seniors worthy.

Amartey and McCartin are useful players too

[Aprilbr]

Swans midfield getting on top. Up by 3 goals. McAndrew, our monstrous sized ruckman looks a likely prospect. Wins hit outs and is allowing us first use out of the centre. His kicking style is awkward though!

Nice soccer goal by Clarke.

I thought Ling was suppose to be a good kick? Twice in a row , Swans players free in the forward line and he kicks it to Gold Coast players.

[Aprilbr]

A few quick goals to the Suns. Only one goal up now.

[Aprilbr]

Half time and rhe Suns up by a point. They came back at us well in that second half of the quarter. Our more prominent players were Bell, Clarke, Armetey.

[Foreign Legion]

McCartin looking very poised in the backline. Looks pretty fit too. He has great ball handling skills and reads the play well as you would expect.

Stephens looking good too. Suns missed a few but also kicked a few freakish goals.

Swans getting smashed at centre bounces. McCartin has some good foot and hand skills.
