His disposal off halfback has been getting worse this year. Might be worth switching him into the forwards again, give him a defensive forward role, then use his pace on the lead with plenty of room. He really is a bit rudderless down back without the calming influence of Bolts...

Off Topic:
Bloody Hell that's tall, I'm 183ish and 13 and I dwarf my grade!
On Topic:
I think because it's Subi we may have to drop Moore and hopefully bring in Gazza and if Smith is fit bring him in for Bevo.
It wouuld be good if Smith could go to Hill and do a Brady Rawlings on him!
I hate to mix metaphors, but horses for courses I reckon. I'm probably Moore's biggest fan round here, but even I can see that he might struggle on the big ground that is subi. Still, if they played him I wouldn't be sad.

I am not sure about Rohan as a KPP. Will have the height, but I fear too much bulk which would be required for a KPP would duely slow Rohans down - his greatest asset.
I like him in the forward line though. He is an absolute utility and he WILL swing matches for us in due course.

wouldn't be surprised if Bevan/Moore out for Smith (if fit) / Rohan
I'd really like to see Smith and Rohan in the side but I honestly can't find a player to drop. Shaw and Mattner haven't been the best in the past few weeks but we definitely need their run and carry on a bigger ground like Subiaco. Maybe Bevan could make way for Smith but we all know Roosy's love for Bevan so it could up being no change.
Send an email to the club telling them who you are and would like the chance to watch your side train. If Roos has a planned closed session well sorry life's going to be a bugger but if it's relaxed than they might be happy to tell you when and where.
Or get what I get when I travelled from Darwin to Melbourne to see them.
Sorry cant see them train, sorry cant see them at all... Poor lady got an ear full on the phone lol

There not often in Melbourne long enough for a proper training session Plugg3r. They come down on the friday for a sat game, or they did last year.
From the Swans Facebook page:
Attention Swans fans in Perth! The team will hold an open training session at Subiaco Oval on Thursday from 2pm (WST). Read the full story on sydneyswans.com.au
most on here are probs fans of that page lol

Im not keen on gary being a utility throughout his career either, he certainly should settle in one position, my point is rather that we dont know which position he suits best or will play his best footy. It may well be CHF, though more likely hf but we should keep an open mind and try him in some other positions where he could be very good.
I guess my other point was that if shaw is out of form and there is a spot in the back line, for the short term i would rather him in the team playing back in the AFL than playing forward in canberra.

No surprise really, the team announced tonight will be unchanged. Smith to come back through the reserves alongside Rohan while Bird misses another week.
Yeah that makes sense. Hopefully we'll see Bradshaw back next week.
Freo inflicted our only loss at the SCG this year in round 9. Kennelly and Bradshaw both got hurt in that game. They were on a roll while we were in a slump. Time to exact some revenge, I say.
Pav destroyed us back then. He doesn't look capable of doing that at the moment. I assume he is carrying an injury, but I haven't heard what it might be. Rumour has it that Sandilands has a stress fracture - if thats the case he is gone and I need to trade him out of my fantasy teams immediately. I hope ROK tags Hill and has a field day like Rawlings did last week.

Freo not as daunting as early in the year - and Sandilands out. I feel great pity for Aaron - not because of his injury - but because of his surname.
Prediction
Swans will be 40 point better team = 40+
Allowance: Minus 5 goals for umpiring fraud = net 10+.
Clawback: Plus 2 goals - Freo is not Victorian = 22+.
Jetta to star in wide open spaces - plus 2 goals = 34+.
Umpires appreciate importance of percentage - minus 4 goals = 10+.
Swans to win by 10.
