They've used him in unusual ways and dropped him straight away. He has to be better value than KJ or Hanners just on statistics.
If we don't bite the bullet we're cactus this year. Maybe a loss to Geelong and the three passengers again not making a contribution might make them change personnel, winning covers the cracks but on RWO we can see them!
Mr. Pink has returned. Interestingly, Darcy Cordell who played for us as a topup earlier this year, will be lining up for the Giants.

NEAFL 2018 Round 14
Sydney Swans Reserves v Giants @ North Dalton Park, Wollongong
Saturday 7th July 2018
12:00pm
North Dalton Park
This will be the 2nd match at North Dalton Oval for the Swans, having played Ainslie in Round 14 2014 and winning that game by 6 points.
After losing the first 4 games of the season, the Swans's fortunes have turned completely around. With important players returning from injury adding strength to the side, they have reeled off 7 straight wins and are now within striking distance of joint leaders Southport and Sydney Uni. However with a tough run home - 5 of the last 7 games are against opposition AFL teams as well as the always difficult road trip to the Northern Territory - the Reserves will be out to seal victory against an undermanned Giants team to consolidate their position in the Top 6. And on an individual level, there are spots up for grabs in the senior team following the injuries that occurred during last night's loss.
The Swans have named 13 listed players and with the AFL match out of the way, all 4 emergencies should line up for us. The Giants meanwhile don't have that luxury with their away game in Perth, meaning they will be down to 8-9 listed players. However they have shown in the last 4 weeks, they can manage to win despite being down on experienced AFL players.

Changes
In: Pink
Out: Lewis MELICAN (injured), Ryley STODDART (injured), Angus STYLES (injured)
Pink finally makes his long awaited return. Will be play back or forward? Perhaps even a stint in the ruck?
Stoddart and Styles were injured early last week and Melican was on limited game time so there shouldn't be too many structural changes from last week's win again the Lions. Kennelly said that Bell ran out of puff due to playing more minutes than expected due to the injury, and ended up in a back pocket.
Foote, Dawson, Brown, Newman, Bell forms a solid midfield unit with Marsh and O'Riordan as other options if required. Cameron and Amartey have been the regular ruck pairing, and with Reid and Pink provide height in the Swans' forwardline.

At least 4 and maybe up to 6 of the extended bench will be on AFL duty, either playing or as travelling emergency. Taranto and Haynes are certainties to be in that group. Keeffe likely to replace the injured Patton as a tall forward/ruck, and the other 5 all have claims to be given a spot as they have all been playing well in the NEAFL. Whoever is left behind will form the nucleus of their on-ball division.
Of the Giants named on field, Sproule has had some great matchups with Harry Marsh, but with a lack of another tall forward, Maibaum may be the man for him this time. Buntine's usual position is as a third tall defender but has been used in the midfield when the Giants have been short of numbers. Mohr is the most experienced defender and hence a logical choice to mark Reid but Sam's propensity to roam further upfield may see Cumming assigned the task instead.
While Flynn will be filling in for regular number 1 ruck Dawson Simpson, he showed last week he is no slouch in the rucking department, tallying 13 hitouts to advantage against former Melbourne Demon Jake Spencer. One of his strengths is his mobility which will pose an interesting challenge for the in-form Darcy Cameron.
Thanks Ugg, great write up as usual. Looking forward to the game updates.
With half the senior side injured last night there are places up for grabs so I expect those players will be really switched on tomorrow.
Great to finally see Pink after seeing Red yesterday. Swans should win this as Giants are shorthanded and it should be much more enjoyable than last nights garbage.
