Preview Round 7, 2024 : Hawks v Swans, 4pm Sunday 28th April, MCG

[Siri]

Lizard V Weddle. You could almost promote that on Main Event.

 

[burger09]

Did I spy Weddle take and grab deep in the F50 against the Roos?

Does anyone know if he lined up there or did he just drift forward on the breeze?

He was playing in the ruck.

 

[hardway]

I like the Finn to lizard idea

He is way too zippy and agile for Finn.

 

[Phil McCreviss]

Last week : "I can't see where our next win is coming from."
This week : "think we're a sneaky chance to beat the team second on the ladder"

A week is a long time in football

 

[VandoHawk]

Day and Lewis should be ready for this one. Two massive ins. Hustwaite and Serong (unlucky) the omissions with Hardwick returning back.

Phillips should be considered as Sydney play three genuine talls but after a win I think only the clear best 22 players will come in.

B: Sicily Frost Hardwick
HB: Mitchell Scrim Impey
C: Amon Nash Morrison
HF: Gunston Chol CMac
F: Ginnivan Lewis Moore
Fol: Meek Day Newxombe
Int: Worpel Mackenzie Maginness Weddle
Sub: D’Ambrosio

 

[I got the outside word]

He is way too zippy and agile for Finn.

But Finn smothers players so they can’t/won’t get given the ball, Finn may be able to play him close so he can’t get into zippy and agile situations.

Yes a week is a loooonnnggggg time in football

 

[PenAndPaper]

If Lewis and Day are fit to go then I think we will have Hust and Serong drop out of the team.

Swans have the 3 talls but i'd happily play Frost/Sicily on Mclean/McDonald and have Weddle on Amartey.

 

[spudmaster]

Looking forward to an easier matchup this week. Could be the ideal opportunity to rest some of the older blokes who are carrying niggles etc.

 

[perrdan86]

He is way too zippy and agile for Finn.

I think Finn would be fine with him

 

[hawkman]

He was playing in the ruck.

Yeah Chol regularly does the centre square rucking and heads forward to leave Weddle to do the around the grounds rucking

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

Day and Lewis back with this at the G has me genuinely feeling like we could win.

Maginness to perhaps return to the hard tag role to quell Heeney.

Not Heeney I would be sending him to Gulden. He will destroy us if we allow him to freewheel all day. If we're any chance he must be clamped. Scrimmers to take Heeney when he drifts forward.

 

[Brucie Buffer]

On a few occasions we fumbled but due to lack of pressure still had time to correct it, we won’t have that luxury against good sides and will get punished for it.

 

[wahawk]

Breust said he could play this week on 3aw but I think he will come back the week after vs the Bulldogs!
Day and Lewis in
Hustwaite and Serong out
Mackenzie as the sub to replace Day halfway through the 3rd quarter!
If we have no injuries!!

Why would you drop Serong ?

That’d be a great move for the young fellas confidence, wouldn’t it ?

 

[TylerDurden]

Surely Finn goes to Heeney?? He's the best player in the comp at present.

 

[CHUBBSS]

I know his only just come back but **** I love him and I’d love to see him get tried in a few Centre bounces soon - seamus is a gun and has the pace to do some game breaking things. Wins a ridiculous amount of one on ones to.

I see him being in our top 5 players for many years just hope he gets to roll into other positions

100% agree with this .. he could be anything

 

[MasterSamurai]

I hope dimma shows up for this one. His last couple games have been no shows.
Finn to clamp up that weird looking guy they call the lizard.
Nash to go one on one with Heeney at stoppages.
But, make no mistake, this is a huge test for where we are. Swans move the ball better than any from both half back and stopagges . Need to play tight and make the game as congested as possible and once we win the contested footy, need to RUN!! Another thing that I'm sure our coaches are aware of is That the Swans score by taking an abnormal amount of marks inside 50! Absolutely destroyed the sun's back six this week by taking mark after mark! The mids have to be defensively at high alert to put lot of pressure on.

 

[Slainte]

He was playing in the ruck.

Yep - I always thought he could play anywhere on the field but ruck - and then, there he was looking perfectly comfortable in the ruck. Didn't win the contest but didn't make a fool of himself. This guy is a genuine freak.

 

[nelk boys]

Gulden vs Mass would be an interesting matchup.

Frenchie needs to stay in.

 

[triple treat]

He is way too zippy and agile for Finn.

I agree, but I’m not sure we have anyone that can go with him on that part. I think we need to put a smart footballer on him, someone that can lose him and slip out the back….. Gunston in my option will destroy him, if our midfielders can at least break even with there’s.

 

[Manila_Hawk]

The Tigers beat the Swans at the 'G' a few weeks ago.

No doubt Sam and the boys are pulling that one apart.

 

[threesixpio]

Um…if Lewis comes in don't we want a forward out or are we saying Serong out for Hardwick going back? If so…I could be a bit dumb.

 

[threesixpio]

Hmm. I love Mackenzie ….but he has not got much of a tank …which means mayyyyybe sub makes sense
