Hicky dropped?

Illness.

 

[Superstar swan]

Logan stiff

 

[Bloods86]

Surprised they didn't drop Campbell (I'd just play him as a small forward, but they'll squander him elsewhere again). Very surprised Cunningham didn't come back in (surely is sub), but I guess moving Lloyd to the wing is too difficult and am at least pleased to see Fox stay in, hopefully Florent stays back.

Happy Amartey's recent form got rewarded. 20 goals in last 6 games. Don't really expect a lot more than Logan, but the right alternative tall.

 

[S120]

Glad to see Amartey rewarded after strong consistent form. He provided an excellent target against Melbourne when he last played seniors too.

Some of the reserves would be feeling aggrieved they aren't getting a game with the seniors so inconsistent but I get to some degree the coaches wanting to let this side make up for last week.

 

[Punts]

Campbell isn’t afl standard atm

Surprised he is in

 

[LukeParkerno1]

What a ridiculous decision we all know how Amartey will go. If you so want him there drop Reid.

We are too tall it’s meant to be wet this is so silly

 

[SGBeach]

Logan stiff

Nup.. I reckon Logan is tracking well and the Swans only ever thought he'd play around 15 games this year.
Amartey is a very deserved in. This board has been requesting that form in the two's is rewarded.. Amartey has been rewarded.
I reckon his ruck work may well give English a few head aches (in saying that, I reckon Ladhams and Reid will share the majority of the ruck work)

 

[Donza]

Logan may need a freshen up playing in a forward line without buddy.

Hickey is ill. Not surprisingly. Most of Sydney has a lurgy

 

[mattpolo8]

If McDonald was going to be out I'm glad it's for Amartey. Have to reward good form. Not convinced Hickey is a loss considering the bath he got last week. Prior to Port game, Ladhams went pretty well on his own.

Wet?
Nah. Hasn't rained properly since yesterday.
Today was fine. Even saw sun

Tomorrow will be a gorgeous day.
Track may be a tad heavy. Nothing crazy.

 

[Millky95]

Boy Ladhams big game from you mate

It won't be wet tomorrow.

Unfortunately no reserves this week though

 

[Bloods86]

Also, I know it's meaningless, but outright disrespectful naming Chad and Blakey on the bench.

 

[sthmelb_dimmies]

Boy Ladhams big game from you mate

Yeah this. Big chance to bounce back from whatever that was vs Port

 

[Wolfgang West]

Logan stiff

Seriously in what respect ?

It’s night it’s always dewy. You need smalls not lumbering talls

 

[LukeParkerno1]

It won't be wet tomorrow.

The game isn’t 2pm. It plays as a wet track at night

 

[Punts]

3 Talls deep forward won’t work on the scg , especially at night
Buddy has to play high otherwise the ball will walk out

3 Talls , heeney and Hayward all flying

 

[Mister B]

I think this highlights why we are so inconsistent. Despite arguably our most pathetic loss in years, the young forward and the media sub are the only players to lose their spot.

We are a mates club and many players know they don't have to perform to get a game. Honestly, if it wasn't for the fact we are playing those pieces of shit this week, part of me would hope we got absolutely flogged as a result.

Yep way too tall. Honestly feel we aren’t just 1 tall too many but two. Could understand Logan for a small but a tall is silly.

 

[Superstar swan]

Seriously in what respect ?

In respect that he got minimum targets but presenting all game... and Campbell has had 6 disposals in 2 weeks

 

[Tedeski]

Not convinced Hickey is a loss considering the bath he got last week

Correct!
