I suppose Sam Reid could be the relief ruck but it is not an option I like.

Guys, Dean Towers tries very hard, but the reality is that he is usually among the weakest in the side. Give him a few more games by all means, but then I would rather have one of the youngsters in the team. Therefore the ruck situation needs to be sorted- if we are to win the flag, we need 2 fit, specialist ruckmen in the side. Let's hope Coxy can coach them to that extra level!!
For all the McVeigh doubters out there, which includes me!
Veteran Swan flying under radar - sydneyswans.com.au
"There�s life in the old legs yet. At least that�s the impression Jarrad McVeigh is making as the veteran utility puts together his best pre-season campaign in recent times. In what is his 16th pre-season of AFL football, McVeigh has been a man on a mission since the Sydney Swans returned to training on December 4.
He�s yet to miss a session, which is a welcomed change of pace for the 32-year-old who�s body, durability and patience have been challenged by persistent soft-tissue injuries over the past three years.
McVeigh hasn�t featured in a Round 1 match since 2014 after a calf strain, knee surgery and another calf issue sidelined him in the lead up to the �15, �16 and �17 seasons respectively."
Perhaps McVeigh v2.0 will be able to chase?
I was one and I was proved correct that in 2016 & 2017 we lacked depth. Prime exhibit is our start to last season when we had a few senior players missing and the replacements weren't up to it.
But the trials of last year have placed us in a good position with depth THIS season.
Rohan a walk up start for Rounds 1-22.....
Rookie Players - sydneyswans.com.au
Is this list correct ?
I thought Lewis Melican was promoted off the rookie list last year, but maybe it wasn't a permanent thing and was just for last season/.
