NEAFL 2014 Round 17
NT Thunder v Sydney Swans Reserves
Saturday 26th July 2014
7.00pm
TIO Stadium
The Reserves are well rested after their bye, and with 3 quality inclusions will be a stronger side than the one that battled Belconnen 2 weeks ago. They'll need every advantage at their disposal for they will be tackling one of the hardest away trips. The Thunder are almost unbeatable playing at home under lights, making full use of the conditions to triumph over their visitors. The Swans have laready played the Thunder earlier this year at Drummoyne Oval when the Thunder were top of the table but the Swans made light work of the visitors in an easy win. NT have the chance to leapfrog the Swans and take the advantage in this crucial battle for an invaluable Top 2 spot.
