I'm not sure the coaching team really considers crowd numbers when playing deceptive games with player inclusions/exclusions.
Nor should they.
Nor should we be upset if they choose to do so.
Part and parcel of 'playing the game'
But there is no reason to call the Swans out on 'playing games' given recent history.
Particularly against Freo who have been average at best this year.
I'm OK with the Swans playing games with payers for advantage as a general rule though.
