TBH Hes one of those players that Swans have, that is too good for Wafl level but not really good enough for AFL level.
Hope Im wrong though, but all signs point that way....

Yeah Claremont have a bunch of players like that (some of them are Eagles as well). Hope Pearce can take the next step up though.
We don't necessarily need Pearce to be a star - just a solid, dependable player who does his job. Every premiership team has them. As long as he's no liability like Peake was to St Kilda

Shades of Macnamara. Also in that it's his last year on an AFL list.

You missed the next bit:
"Schammer's radar improved rapidly in the next minute or so as he confirmed when he accepted a pass from Lewis Broome and ran into the right goals this time to put Claremont's second on the board."
Any chance you edit for The West?
Should be going to Claremont game tomorrow. Will try look out for him.

Schammer also kicked another goal for the match as well and had a number of effective possessions, maybe I should have put up the whole damn match report would that have been better?

I think everyone could use some good news after the game today...
Clayton Hinkley is back!
He played for Swans Districts in the reserves today, and finished as their leading disposal winner with 18. Also recorded the 4 I50's and a match high 7 tackles.

At least another is off the injury list. The rest of WAFL bunch:
- Boucavz: 20 possessions 5 tackles
- Griffin: 15 possessions, 4 marks, 38 HO, 5 I50
- Mitchie: 21 possessions, 4 marks, 4 I50
- Crichton: 17 possessions, 4 marks, 8 Tackles
- Shepheard: 13 possessions, 5 marks, 2 goals 3 behinds
- Schammer: 21 possessions, 8 marks, 6 I50, 2 goals
- Sibosado: 11 Possessions (played backline but not on Chad Jones)
- Mellington: 16 possessions, 6 marks, 7 I50, 2 goals 2 behinds
Not much can change from the Freo team that played an awful second half today, probably only the following:
Anthony, Crowley, Crichton & Mitchie

Good stats for Buccoo, Shep and Michie, and Scham and Mello look like the had an impact. Don't know that they are all ready to step up yet, but at least some good news...

I thought you said good news? I was looking for it and this is what I found?
Is a great runner, not a footballer. OK, he made some good runs today and didn't get used, but at least 2 of those 4 I50s were horrible. Disposal and decision making is very average, at best.
Shepheard, was surprised by his stats. Has good skills and agility but, as I've said before, doesn't will himself into contests and like half of Swans forward line, watch it as it get runs out. Missed a couple of relatively easy goals though, so could've looked better for him.

Shame Jack Anthony didn't get a chance to play. Don't think he's done super well in the WAFL but probably a spot there for him in the big leagues unless a few of our forwards pull their finger out.
Big fan of Harvey, but mate, why drop Crowley 'to regain some form and confidence' when Subi had a bye, the week after Freo had a bye. We could have at least played him last weekend instead of giving him 2 weeks off at a time where he needs to be playing. Now we'll consider bringing him back after two weeks off.
Want to see Schammer given another go, but only after a solid month of good WAFL form. He deserves one last chance at it this year and better to do that with all these injuries than later in the year when we're gunning for the finals and hoping to have essential players coming back in. Don't forget the investment we put into this guy.
Injury issue is beginning to turn small wins into losses. We've covered a lot of injuries with our depth of reasonable players (at this stage of their career), but the cumulative effect of having those depth players all out there is hurting us.

Crowley was dropped because he was playing awful football and could no longer be carried.
