    Round 20: Sydney Swans Reserves v Redland Bombers @ SCG

    NEAFL 2017 Round 20

    Sydney Swans Reserves v Redland Bombers @ SCG

    Saturday 12th August 2017
    10:05am
    Sydney Cricket Ground

    The penultimate round of the 2017 NEAFL season home and away fixture pits the Swans against the Bombers of Redland. The Swans are will be smarting from a poor performance against a strong Lions outfit last week and will require a win here to stay ahead of Brisbane in the race for the minor premiership.

    Redland have had a poor season but will be buoyant as a result of their upset win over arch-rivals Aspley last week.

    These sides have only met twice in the NEAFL with the Swans winning both matches comfortably.

    Changes
    In:
    Out: Sam MURRAY (injury)

    The ruck situation was an issue last week. Pink and Maze could not compete with the dominant Lions duo of Smith and McInerney. This led to the Swans trying midfielders in the ruck with varying levels of success before reverting back to a more traditional ruck with Aliir rucking in the second half.

    With Maze omitted this week (see below), it looks like Pink (seen in training photos doing rucking drills with Sinclair) and Aliir will shoulder the load again. Robinson, Dawson, Marsh and Cunningham played major minutes in the midfield early on before other players in Foote, Florent and Jack had a run in the middle in the 2nd half.

    Maibaum and Talia played forward at times last week as the team.

    Captain Bertoli-Simmonds was the winner of the NEAFL Rising Star award last year and is sure to attract interest in this year's AFL Draft. Playing as an in-and-under midfielder, Bertoli-Simmonds leads the club in disposals, tackles, clearances and inside 50s and was the leading Redland player in the NEAFL MVP count when voting results were halted in Round 18. Supporting the skipper in the midfield will be Jack Rolls, Bailey (son of Craig) Lambert, Damian Steven and former Lions Academy player Soul Cormick.

    Leading goalkicker ex-Lion and ex-Pie Jackson Paine will miss with injury meaning ex-Sun Clay Cameron and Aaron (brother of Brisbane Lion Allen) Christensen will have to spearhead their forward line. Ex Collingwood player Peter Yagmoor has been providing plenty of rebound from defence playing as a half back flanker

    Also missing with injury are the Bombers's two leading ruckmen in Craig Malone and Sam Michael which will be a great relief to our undermanned ruck division.

    Did we play poorly last week or were Brisbane just better?

    Why hasn't Hardman played until now? Isn't he the Academy's best draft prospect? If he impresses will he be eligible for selection in the NEAFL finals?

    Lastly, what is the format of the NEAFL finals series?

    Thanks!

    I think James Bell is considered the best Academy draft pick. He has been invited to the Victorian State Combine which means 4 Victorian clubs are interested. He recently broke his hand which explains why he is not playing NEAFL.

    Hardman is going to the Rookie Me Combine which means two clubs are interested. I think the Rookie Me Combine is put on by a private company who puts them through a combine and provides the data to the clubs. I don't think there are club interviews.

    I don't think Hardman has had a very consistent year. He did kick the winning goal in the Allies win against Vic Metro but has not really taken control of a game this year, tending to fade in and out. He is a pure small crumbing forward who tends to stay deep. He is blisteringly fast, possibly one of the fastest over 20m in the entire draft pool. However he is small 173cm, lightly built and easily blocked. If he is not carefully blocked he does have the speed to rip sides apart. We just haven't seen it too much this year. I have no doubt he will be keen to put on a big show tomorrow.


    I expect Jarrod Osborne to be interesting tomorrow as he seems to be hitting some amazing form including 41 disposals in the premier comp on the weekend to get the rising star for the round.

    Wicks and Hardman are both small forwards, and despite not playing Allies, Wicks has probably had the better year. I would speculate that the recruiters are interested in seeing who is the better small forward between the two. Wicks is actually a midfielder but has had to adapt to the small forward role in NEAFL. At 181cm he is still to lightly built to play midfield for the swans. Being a midfielder he does bring more forward pressure and endurance running to the small forward role, and can tend to play higher.

    Jake Brown is continuing to be given as much opportunity to make up for his absence through injury. I didn't see the neafl game last week but the toppy stats were bad, and Brown will be busting to get back to a 20 plus possession game.

    No doubt Carr and possibly Deep will come in for the emergencies who may replace Kennedy or have to be on stand by. Carr has had a solid season with a couple of 4 goal games in NEAFL.

    I've heard a rumour that the Melbourne based swans recruiters are in town this weekend. I would imagine they have had a say regarding which toppies play this week so they can see the ones that interest them live.

    Thanks for this super informative reply, barracuda.

    Yes, I was getting Hardman confused with Bell. I realised later, after posting. Here's hoping Bell finds his way on to our list next year.

    Wicks has been pretty good in the Reserves this year with some decent games, especially earlier in the season.

    Are the other senior emergencies playing? If not, wouldn't it just mean they are keeping one emergency fresh in case of... emergency? Although I'm disappointed they would pick Foote ahead of Robbo. I prefer Robbo. More versatile. Better disposal.

    Is not that easy to keep improving your percentage when it's already 250 but great to see we're finding a way.

    Good stats for Robbo, Fisher, Aliir. Leonardis seems to have checked out already. Even if he is facing delisting, wouldn't it be better to go out with a NEAFL premiership to your name? Is he in danger of missing the cut for finals? I know we can only play so many listed players.

    I look forward to hearing more reports and/or watching the stream.

    I was surprised how Aliir dominated in the ruck against a much taller opponent, especially after the 1st quarter. He was also the best around the ground. He wriggles his way out of tight spaces, then breaks away. Besides kicking 2 goals he also set up a number of others with good kicking into the forward line.

    I thought Florent was involved in many nice passages of play. Fisher and Ronke back in form after both had slow games last week.
