NEAFL 2016 Round 4
Sydney Swans Reserves v Southport Sharks
Saturday 23rd April 2016
9.30am
Drummoyne Oval
After 3 rounds of the 2016 NEAFL season, the Swans Reserves sit atop the table as the only unbeaten team in the competition. They followed up their impressive first 2 wins over fellow AFL reserves sides by thumping Redland away. Another strong side of 16 listed players has been named for this game and the Swans will be favourites to continue their unbeaten start to the season
Southport have been boosted by the playing return of coach Nathan Bock, but have lost 2 of their 3 games. Having scraped into the finals last year on percentage, they'll be hoping for a win here to keep in touch with the Top 6.

Changes
In: Nankervis, Towers, Leonardis, Naismith
Out: James ROSE (senior emergency), Zak JONES (senior emergency), Tom DERICKX (injured), George HEWETT (seniors)
After Derickx went down early in the Redland game, Galloway became the number 1 ruck with back up support from the likes of Davis and Aliir. Nankervis's return after his late call up in Adelaide plus the return of Sam Naismith, who will only see limited game time, means that the ruck department is well covered for this game.
Towers played in the midfield in his last NEAFL game and looks to be a straight swap for Hewett.

Unchanged topups this week, and this core group of topups have all done very well across all 3 games. Wilson and Hebron were named in the best players list in the first 2 rounds, and Reinhard made it 3 from 3 with his 6-goal game last week.

The Sharks have suffered a big blow with former Gold Coast Suns midfielder Boston ruled out with a rib injury. He is currently their leading clearance and 2nd leading disposal winner. Playing-coach and former Adelaide defender Bock along with former Collingwood and Fremantle forward Jack Anthony have formed a deadly team up forward, both currently sitting on 7 goals on their goal tally. Former Essendon rookie list player Fraser Thurlow has been an astute recruit for their ruck division.
