I believe the Swans will try and stretch us in their forward line by loading up with talls from the first bounce. That means Franklin Tippett Goodes and Reid lining up on the ground. To counter this we'll use Rance Chaplin Grimes and Batchelor and it's no surprise to me that we have stuck with these 4 in the side the last 3 months, as I believe we wanted to get a backline that can handle the Swans set up without losing too much run. Grimes and Batchelor are both big enough and agile enough to take Reid and Goodes. I can see Cunningham going to Houli to try and counter his run, while Morris will get the job on Jetta.
In our forward half, I'm not shocked to see us go with the 2 talls and 4 running types, it has worked a treat the last 8 weeks and there is no reason to change it now. To counter I see the Swans using Smith on Deledio and Rampe on Martin when forward, while Rohan and Shaw will try to work off of Gordon and Petterd.
The midfield is going to be a real key to the game. We need Cotchin Edwards Miles & Foley to get on top of Hanneberry Parker Jack & Mitchell in the contested ball battle and feed it out to the likes of Ellis Grigg Houli Conca Deledio & Martin to get our game going the way we want it to work. If the Swans get on top and make it a real grinding battle I can see it being like the second half when we played them the first time around i.e. 250 disposals for 1 goal.
Some might be surprised to see Vlastuin as the sub again but when looking at the side and the roles that players would play Vlastuin as the sub is perfect for this week. As we saw the other week he can have a real impact as a sub coming on in the 3rd quarter, whether that is going into the midfield and just going hard for 40 minutes or slotting into a HBF and providing link up out of the back line.
