Have to agree there
Don’t think you can extend the bench. Not sure Murphy or Morwood might make the cut. Someone has to miss out and it would be a testament to the quality of our best if either of those two did miss out.
And to be honest, I’d rate Rod Carter at least as highly as Leo. I thought he was unlucky first time around.
Capper was unlucky that he’s trying to fit into a forward line with Lockett, Pratt and Nash. Pratt was quite possibly a better mark than one of the most spectacular and consistent marks of the modern era - & Pratt was a significantly better goal kicker. Nash one of the greatest all round footballers of all time could have been the best full forward if not for Pratt. And then there’s Lockett. The best. How many genuine key position forwards can one side have?
An all time greatest South side, an all time greatest Sydney side, and and all time greatest Swans side would be worth selecting IMO.
And then there’s the coach. Does Roosey or Longmire get a look in?
