Training 2019 Preseason Discussion

[mikey_san]

I think Naismith is a bit underdone so a good chance he won't be available for at least the first couple of games.

I saw something, somewhere about targeting a round 6 return - which surprised me as I thought he'd be ready to go earlier.
Further interest in that the rule changes are said (by fantasy footy types) to not favour inbetweeners like Cameron and Sinkers.

He's here to see how his son is doing during his first preseason after going inside the top 10.

Richmond choked hard. They would have gone back-to-back easily.

Doesn't mean they were the best team though. I'm glad justice prevailed in 2018.

best team prevailed on the day .... even though I detest the Weasels, it was good to see a non Melbourne team win.

.... and always fun to watch the Filth go down.

Happily we have the bulk of humanity in our camp.

Ummm, that 11... is that Celsius or Fahrenheit? Cause if it's F then it would be -11 here...

Celsius. That way when I'm watching I can know what 11, 20, 41 feel like when they say what the temp is! We're the backwards ones....

I liked that a team with a more traditonal structure won. Will that make everyone rush to turn back the clock ? Or does it simply remind us that there's more than one winning game plan, as long as there are the personnel to execute it well. WC struggled without their two main forwards on the park but won every game with both.

Anyone providing updates from the intra-club this morning?

 

[SlingshotFooty]

Any idea if there will be a replay of the intraclub with the Giants that's happening soon?

Yep. Some genius on the Swans website have not put up the live stream yet.

Name that really pops out for me is why McCartin and Reid are not playing. I mean McCartin is a kid who could use the game time and Reid needs the match practice.

 

[RUNVS]

Mills is starting in the centre.

 

[caesar88]

PINK!

 

[RUNVS]

Great lead from Pink there as well.

Why am I only seeing a horse race on the Swans app?

 

[RUNVS]

We actually look like Gold Coast with the uniform we are wearing today.

Florent involved in both goals here

Harley seems like that really cool school principal who reads the entire room in the staff meeting then smokes a joint with them at the christmas party.

I really like the look of Maibaum. He seems to win his one on one contests a lot.
