Pick our finals squad

[Peace]

Man thinking about the St Kilda, Hawthorn and Richmond game really hurts.... we would be 4th on the ladder right now oh well.

Kirk plays his best in high pressure games, he will be selected no matter what.

[Captain]

Smith Bolton Grundy
Mattner LRT Shaw
Malceski Bolton McVeigh
Jack White ROK
McGlynn Bradshaw Rohan
Mumford Goodes Kennedy
Kirk Seaby Hannebery Meredith
Emer: Moore, Kennelly, Jetta

Winning or losing close games can make a huge diiference to where you finish at the end of the year and if we'd won those three, and we easily could/should have, then we'd be eyeing top four. That said we really do need to put away Carton, Tankers and Brissy plus beat at least one in that tough stretch Geelong, Hawthorn, Freo, Dogs.

Whilst we all have our opinions, I'm amazed that Kirk, Jack and McGlynn have been out of some peoples best 22. Kirk whilst probably starting to feel the pinch is still an elite shut down player, Jack has gone to a new level this year and McGlynn would be high in our B&F except for those missed games.

[Number 43]

Keeping it simple, the Swans' best team is basically the 22 who played in Rounds 2-4 inclusive this year, except with Meredith or Rohen and Smith, replacing Jetta and Moore.

That team earlier in the season consisted of:

Bolton, Craig

Bolton, Jude

Bradshaw, Daniel

Goodes, Adam

Grundy, Heath

Hannebery, Dan

Jack, Kieren

Jetta, Lewis

Kennedy, Josh

Kennelly, Tadhg

Kirk, Brett

Malceski, Nick

Mattner, Martin

McGlynn, Ben

McVeigh, Jarrad

Moore, Jarred

Mumford, Shane

OKeefe, Ryan

Roberts-Thomson, Lewis

Seaby, Mark

Shaw, Rhyce

White, Jesse

Name names, put the blow torch to the bellies.

12 weeks is a long time and looking at the table now, the Swans chances have improved significantly since then. However, looking at the chances of Crows, Norf and Blues, their chances of making the top 8 our in that order. Crows have easiest draw to the others and even the Swans.

I think there is no point to pick a team as 1. We haven't made the finals yet; and 2. Injuries and availability.
