VFL 2026 Swans Reserves

[Cadsky]

Who in the VFL ruck, is it Podmore Taylor?

McLean I'd imagine

 

[Kbroome]

McLean I'd imagine

He will travel over with the AFL side to the west to be the spare ruck and spare key forward given Ladhams is suspended. Therefore can't be him

They will take 3 !

 

[Kbroome]

They will take 3 !

I know, I'm just saying he is 100% going to be one of them as he is the only realistic cover for both the key forward and ruck positions

Bell and Hebron running around with GWS reserves. Barry O'Connor did the same a few years back. Why can't we get guys like this to be playing for our VFL side although I guess Shipley has been playing with us for a while now.

I reckon it’s hard to keep running around with the same team mates when you’ve been cut from the senior lost. Makes sense that you’d rather not play with them with reduced status as a VFL squad player.

Is Sheather also still playing with the Giants’ VFL side?

 

[bedford]

Go Borough

No, not with them this year.

You better not be on the Port Melbourne bench high-fiving blokes as they come off the ground.

Just had a look at their playing list. There are at least five who have played for our VFL side. I might have missed a couple.

I also think there will be more players with AFL experience in their team than in ours.

I also noticed who their captain is and who their director of coaching is. Hmmm…

You only just realised that, Tom Hird has been there before his Dad and FYI he was the best player last year and won the best and Fairest , so i don't know what you are trying to say
Go Borough

Port Melbourne have a very decent vfl list. We will be doing well to get within 4 goals.

Sad that we lost our captain Harvey Hooper to GWR

Good to see those "new"s contributing so much height to the team.

Is it odd that both Hanily and McLean are named in the side? Does that mean they've only taken Harry to Perth as an emergency?

Very odd, guess they feel some safety in having Jai on the wing that he can swing back and replace a key if they go down, surprised no tall forward was brought over, unless they are happy going small incase of injury?

Thats how i read it. Lets hope Grundy doesn't go down because Amartey would have to carry the ruck load with a chop out from Logan

This was from the VFL Teams announce, so the club may make other changes, or this isn't entirely accurate (it's happened before!)
