AJ will play a half in the reserves:

Johnson, who missed the entire 2013 season after tearing his anterior cruciate ligament in last year’s pre-season competition, will play a half of football this weekend.

What's the word on Biggs?

And Bedford how is he rated internally?

Personally I liked what I saw last year given the poor bugger was tossed directly against the best in league in finals which a far call from making a round 9 debut against the Scum.

 

[bedford]

Haven't heard much, one thing I know is that we really demand for our youngsters to do want we think is required for them to go to the top level, otherwise you don't hear much about them.

 

[SM]

AJ has injured his left knee.

 

[Punts]

Biggs looks good

 

[Punts]

Aliir has done some really good things his spoiling has benn top notch

My View from yesterday
Jones - first outing against men wasn't to bad , good run and carry at times , will start his career as a HBF I think
Hewett - he did some good things , I think he has huge upside
Marsh - Still a little away from JPK , might of got his tyres pumped up a little to much
Aliir - very good spoiled every thing in his path and was very good under pressure ( maybe not as bad as some think )
Biggs - should be in the senior side just due to his kicking , rarely misses targets of the HB ( better kick than half the seniors )
Dericx - meh , should only be used if Pyke needs a rest
Robinson - l really like him , done a few good things in a side that was getting pumped
Lockyer - too short
XR - Might have put on 5kg but still needs to put at least another 3/4 on his upper body , monstered by Boyd
BJ- no the greatest day
Towers- see BJ
Lloyd - sucked in a little , played ok
Membrey - fitness and speed is a massive issue , at 188cm wont make it as a 3rd tall so better get fit or he will struggle to get a debut
Nasmith - thought he did ok , just needs to find the ball around the ground a little more
Nankervis - pretty quiet
Perris - used the ball pretty well when he had it
P Mitchell - sucked in big time , carried on a little to much
AJ- I almost had a tear in my eye , this started what was a s**t day

Ressies sound promising

 

[RUNVS]

Sounds like if anyone is coming into the side based on this weeks game it would be Biggs who deserves a spot in the senior side.

Ressies sound promising

Didn't they get spanked by the same club that spanked our seniors? I'm not sure how that's a good sign.

Just make sure you squash any glimmer of hope left.

 

[Punts]

Have a look at the highlights on Swans.com of AJ in the first 10min before he went down for those who were not there ( he would have been back in the senior side by round 5).
Farking ACLs

Just saw the highlights...there was one dude who took an intercept in the back half, then took 4 bounces..ran off couple of GWS players to setup next play and goal...was that AJ? shite..he looked good! I recall in all his games..he was not only a competitive beast but really quick..always had faith that if whoever he was manned up against got an initial break, he could always make up ground to spoil or he was running off someone, no one would catch him...very rarely got beaten in a contest. Watching those highlights again just reminds me of how massive a loss he is! Man, i miss that awesome spread of run we used to get with AJ, shaw, mal and mattner.
