Preview Round 13, 2021: Sydney v Hawthorn, 11 June 2021, 7.50pm AEST @ SCG

[Jazzfan]

Why this constant undervaluing of Shiels? He is and has always been one of the most consistent players we have.

Oh, nothing to do with his career. I respect him probably more than most of our premiership heroes. He's the ultimate role player. When talking with mates on stars, and spuds, he's always widely acknowledged of what it means to be a really consistent, good AFL midfielder.

With that said... his past 18 months are not that. I actually didn't say Howe, as I think he is providing more right now in that role... Shiels is getting smashed on the spread sadly.

TOB over Greaves is laughable

mate surely you know they don't play the same role

 

[grumbleguts]

He genuinely doesn't.

 

[Bardo State]

Has ability needs to add a little physicality to his game. Needs to except a solid tackle as much as lay a solid tackle.

That's what stood out to me in his most recent Box Hill games. Disposes the ball or doesn't take possession to avoid contact when he could draw contact and take an opponent out of the play. He'll go up a level when he learns to take contact.

Training, a boxing session earlier this week, apparently Kosi got him.

Lol

 

[Mrzohs]

Kosi got him, apparently

Confirmed unlucky for Lewis. We probably needed it fair dinkum the softest side I have seen under clarko.

 

[Brishawk]

Kosi got him, apparently

Kosi saw his name in the outs column and decided to fight for his place in the side

[Howe Amazing]

I wonder where the club sees Finn’s future at now. Can’t play at Box Hill and deservedly behind Newcombe. Does he get another deal?

 

[Mercy Seat]

mate surely you know they don't play the same role

The role of our team ranga?

 

[matey]

How in the hell is TOB and Howe still getting a game ...... at 2-9 should be trying to find new players that grab their opportunities with both hands, that take us into the future.

He’s barely played any footy since we drafted him and it’s his second season on the list.

I want to see him do well, hope he gets the time he needs

 

[TylerDurden]

Flog.

Flog.

Buddy used to be Footy God’s favourite but then he fell from grace.

Clarko has moved on

 

[Holy Rioli]

Training, a boxing session earlier this week, apparently Kosi got him.

haha good way for Kosi to make sure he keeps his spot

 

[PT Bar None]

Kosi got him, apparently

At least it wasn't TO'B! Can you imagine the carry on if it was!?

 

[HairyO]

Playing kids and being flogged by 15 goals each week sure did set GCS on the right path !!

 

[Big Hotdog]

Timmy almost got him

Disagree still plenty of experience out there without TOB and Howe!

 

[Toasted]

I want to see him do well, hope he gets the time he needs

Yeah so do I. I think it’s the footy IQ that’s holding him back at the moment which is why he’s getting tagging roles in the VFL. I think he’ll be ok, just needs some game time more than anything else

 

[Brant]

What a credit to Duke getting a game straight away (if Hodgemail is right).

Pity he will get suspended for the rest of the year for maiming the whole of the Sydney Swans team.

So who plays on Sydney’s 2nd and 3rd tall?

Roughy to CHB?
