    Naismith is an interesting choice as emergency. It says to me that they consider him above nankervis as a senior option otherwise they wouldn't have upgraded him. The other intersting thought is why is he listed. I wonder if they have serious concerns about Reid given his hyper extension last week. Will he be a late replacement ??

    The pressure should be intense, the tackle count high and we should be able to cover the quick Bombers.

    Oh not good. Razor Ray!!! Oh well that will be at least 6 extra free kicks that Essendon will receive.

    Okay. All the theories about Naismith can end. Swans Incorrectly named him due to computer error instead of nankervis

    Thanks @AFL_PKeane

    Yep, now changed to Nankervis in the team list on the AFL website.

    Where was the upped voltage, electric pace and tackling last week?

    Oh dear, lucky I won't be watching the game live (having friends over tomorrow night, so will be watching on record!)

    Not quite 'Peter Taylor' but still embarrassing.

    I'd love some team to do that for an away game. I'm imagining a fabulously awkward airport scene.

    I'm hoping the teams effectiveness will be high. Pace is nothing without good delivery. Quick and accurate hands and feet will beat fast legs, eg Hanners
    Jetstar is a great kick, Harry is pretty good, Rohan and Towers - haven't seen enough to form an opinion, and Lloyd .... he is a good kick. I hope Jake get the start over Towers.

    Naismith emergency seems to be a mistake.

    That was a very obscure comment but I eventually got it (needed Mr Google to jog my memory though).

    Damn, Freo just scraped over the line against Carlton tonight by 5 points. Carlton had a moral victory and were leading until the final minutes. It would have been nice to have been a game ahead of Freo before we go into tomorrow night's match, but it was not to be.

    Boy, Fremantle were off the boil big time. Lucky not to post 2 losses in a row against bottom of the table teams. They looked lost without Pav out there.
