Preview Round 11: Swans v Demons

[rustycrate]

Rounds?

That's a Barry

 

[Bloods86]

It has nothing to do with the pride game , it's traditional jumper and credit to the club using it when there's not a clash with another team away
Made wear pride socks or something

I'm not saying we don't wear the Red V, because others find it meaningful. I'm just pointing out to you that some aren't particularly fussed by a jumper you love, and others might love a jumper you aren't fussed by.

 

[Bloods86]

Who are mean girls
Im only giving a local report from my weather station , in my past employments i needed it
Hope the weather is nice in SA , a beautiful park of the world

You've suggested multiple times now that others weather forecasts (which might be from better sources) are lesser than yours, as a local (which means nothing if you're not coming up with it yourself).

 

[Nuggetz]

Reckon we'll play amartey, hamling, Buller & ladhams up fwd, only 3 in the fwd line at the same time.

Amartey & Buller - traditional fwds.

Mills and McLean to start.
Adams sub

Or maybe Gus is sub...

So effectively Mills McLean Adams in

Wanted an extra tall but don't mind it

 

[hairy biker]

So I'd imagine McLean on I/C and Adams as sub.

Sensible enough.

 

[Jewelsbon]

Why does nobody seem to think Ollie will be sub again?

 

[caesar88]

McLean didn't look the goods in the VFL, and Florent, whilst effective enough once he came on, didn't really look significantly improved as sub, so hopefully just being demoted alone is enough of a kick up the arse for these two.

Unless Florent is sub again, which I also wouldn't be against - Adams might bring more hardness than Florent, which we need.

Not expecting big midfield minutes for Mills this week but he'll surely ramp up in the following weeks if he recovers well. So Sheldrick is gonna need another big game or he might be squeezed out again.

 

[rustycrate]

Mills should not be in the starting side ahead of Sheldrick.

That is a big mistake. A mistake of trust in Sheldrick. A repeat of when Mills was back early last time and stuffed the side. I like Mills but he is just a man and needs to earn his spot back not just on limited minutes. Not acceptable.

 

[Kbroome]

I could see it as well just wonder with McInerney being out they might play him on the wing

Mills is captain, bit hard for a fourth year player to push him to the bench.

Latest runs on the board should matter most.
Bringing back underdone players into a winning side and not rewarding form players breeds resentment and other not conducive mindsets into the playing team.

Form does not matter. Just hierarchy and seniority.

Goodbye Sheldrick and I say very good luck to him in a new side next year that would appreciate good performing players over seniority.

It's just a list of names 'on paper'.

Last week Francis was named at FF and played in defence, Sheldrick named on the wing and started in the centre square.
Perhaps wait until the team actually lines up on Sunday before having an aneurysm.

Sheldrick hasn't been dropped for Mills, both will play v Melbourne and indeed it's quite possible Mills will start on the bench and who knows, like last week, Sheldrick might be in the square for the first bounce.

Breathe,relax.

 

[Jack Lord]

At the risk of sounding like a killjoy, I hope we're not rushing Millsy back too soon.

Talk about weird takes.

Most like for like for JMac who can play wing. Who else you putting there?

He also played well last week

Mills should play FWD a fair bit this week surely. He’s not going to be physically able to be a mid straight up with half a game under his belt

 

[Punts]

See if he makes it through

should be sub but won’t be or played at least a FULL game in the 2s

He was average af last season when back

 

[caesar88]

I feel like Swans fans compared to other clubs' supporters are so fair and level-headed until it comes to Angus Sheldrick and then they just lose their minds for some reason. I really don't get it.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

At least we only bought ONE useless tall in its almost like it’s what I was half saying one at most sure nothing more
