    They're really mixing up the midfield today. Already seen Membrey Perris and BJ in there along with the usual suspects ROK Tmitchell Robinson and Hewett

    Rohan has been hitting the packs hard at full pace. Obviously has been told to take the tacklers on and run run run

    I notice that we are being expected to nominate him as well as Heeney. Must bring hair

    Only 19 Swans ran out for second half. Looks like Walsh also out of the game

    Abe Davis looks good.
    I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
    We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

    Lovely to see another baby blond in number 34. Hopefully the legend will live on.

    Ludwig is a big rap for Robinson so it's good to see him doing well.

    How did Rohan go of half back? With Rampe under an injury cloud he may come into selection calculations. Is he ready for 30 minutes in the Subs vest?

    Membrey kicked four goals. How were the other parts of his play?

    How did Tom Mitchell go?

    How did Heeney go?

    Who got the job on Davey?

    Apologies for all the questions.

    Looking forward to a full report/s from the ressie watchers :-) Looks like a good win albeit home ground advantage.

    The game was the best of the video streams this year. NT played good hard contested footy and it was a good game by the Swans reserves. There were lots of good performances. It seemed Mitchell, Robinson, Lockyer and a kid wearing number 5 all got plenty of the ball. There was plenty of scrambling and tackling in close.

    Lockyer played on the wing and looked solid and relaxed. Perris and Hewett also got a lot of the ball and used it well.

    Nankervis and Naismith both look capable of playing senior footy. Personally, I would take either one over Derickx.

    Towers got injured. Looked to be a shoulder. Walsh went off as well with perhaps an ankle injury.

    Heeney was impressive and Abe Davis took some good marks and kicked a nice goal from around 50. Both would be good additions to our list.

    The star of the day for me was Membrey. We have to make sure we keep this kid. He can mark, he can tackle and he has to be one of the best goal kickers on our side. He even played a bit in the midfield and looked okay. I hope we find a spot for him during the second half of the season so we can see if he can step it up to AFL level.
