Thread: Swans vs Giants Solitary Pre-season Match

Coaches know what they are capable of. Listing them as emergencies for this game probably meaningless unless they are a week or so away from full fitness.
    I dont see the best 22 as a fixed thing. It changes every week based on opposition, fitness, injuries and team cohesion. There has already been several changes to last week's team, with Rampe, Heeney, Hewett, Cunningham and Clarke all coming in. Too many changes makes it hard to build on the parts of our game plan we were working on last week. It doesnt mean Dylan won't be best 22 when the round 1 team is announced. That is a fortnight away, so by then things will have changed again and Stephens might be a beneficiary. Until then we can speculate all we like but we do not know the going ons. Stephens may have a recurring niggle. They may be trying to protect him until the season proper begins. We just don't know.

    It's exciting to be finally having discussions about having too many players capable of playing in the roles available. Its a great thing, its called depth!

    Is it possible that our free kick differential in 2021 could be worse than 2020?

    Florent playing well.
    "The" Chad should play R1. Added spark.
    McCartain could be AA defender one day. I think we've found the second coming of Reg.
    But.....
    Hickey getting towelled up by Briggs
    Midfield getting crushed by GWS midfield
    Bell is not best 22. Lacks footy sense under pressure (50m free, bad disposal, in wrong spots often).

    Rampe is uncharacteristically dogs balls today?
