I want to know what these guys are smoking. In what world do we go in with 3 talls and a medium in the fwd line? And Melican who hasn't feature at all in the pre season. Less grass herald sun boys.
can't open the article..
but less grass would result in a story which is still incorrect, and boring. Id suggest more grass.. sure they'd still get it wrong, but it might make a few people laugh

Clearly written by someone who hasn't paid any attention to our preseason matches

Love McLean on a HFF 🤣🤣

Personally think this is how we line up.

B: Dane Rampe - Tom McCartin - Harry Cunningham
HB: Jake Llyod - Paddy McCartin - Nick Blakey
C: Ollie Florent - Luke Parker - Justin McInerney
HF: Errol Gulden - Buddy Franklin - Issac Heeney
F: Sam Wicks - Logan McDonald - Will Hayward
Foll: Tom Hickey - Callum Mills - James Rowbottom

I/C: Josh Kennedy, Pete Ladhams, Chad Warner, Dylan Stephens

Medi-Sub: Braeden Campbell

If Papley is fit he replaces Hayward.

I reckon Campbell showed more being played out of position than Hayward did being played in position. That's the only spot I think is still up for grabs. I'd play Campbell as a small forward for round 1. Otherwise, this is the same list I'd be going with

Especially if Kennedy is rotating into the backline. He and JMac make the seventh defender. McLean still a Smokey in Logan or Pete's spot but your team just about spot on.

The AFL will warn fans they run the risk of substantial fines if they jump the fence to mob Lance Franklin should he kick his 1000th goal on Saturday.

It may be one of the traditions of the game but the message out of headquarters is they do not want people to storm the field.
 
We all know the AFL is 2-52 weeks behind public opinion. AFL are weak as piss and have little foresight. Fine the fans that have not seen live games for a few years. Gil has to piss off. Buddy kicks 1000 goals and he wants to fine fans. I'd like to see that!!
Fans win run onto the field and it will be glorious.

I think this is just the AFL equivalent of 'gamble responsibly'.

They know people will run on the field and I doubt they care, indeed it will probably give them increased coverage.
They are just covering their rear end.
 
Tom Papley on the Back Page tonight - via Kayo or Fox 48:30mins into programme.

Ooh. Paps reckons he might be back for round 2

Speaking of Papley I don't think I will be getting many arguments when I say with confidence that Papley is going to give away the most 50 metre penalties for umpire descent than any other Swans player by a reasonably big margin. Love hm but he has massive white line fever.

I wouldn't mind it if they did what League does and just restrict it to the captain. But it seems there's just so much agro and backchat out there I can understand how they might feel the need to draw a line.

My Dad said to me when I was kid that you cannot change the umpire's mind . So why argue? I never did. I might hate the decision but I moved on.
I find it juvenile when players go on with it. Get on with the game.
