Davo....

He was looking pretty damn fit, too! Loved that square up to Hall in the first.
 
Indeed, he was very good. He had alot of important possessions in the first half that set up some nice goals. He's very important to the team. Great to have him back!

Nick Davis is unbelievably fit and is healthy thin.

He was simply awesome last week against the Demons. Scary thought, we probably haven't seen him reach the pinncale of his career (just yet)!

On ya Davis!

Davis has the ability to become an elite midfielder, although I don't think he will ever live up to that potential.
 
Surprisingly he did play poorly.

Shame its on his 150th game. Didn't deserve the lost. We owe it to him!

I wouldn't want to single him out. Playing that third or fourth target role is pretty hard. If the team goes poorly, these players are often the first to suffer. But he really went off the radar. But then again Micky has been quiet for a couple of rounds too, but he remains busy off the ball. Davo played well against Melb, even when the ball wasn't coming to him. But he was utterly unsighted on Sat.

Everyone will have to lift to beat the Saints next week.

Interesting Auskick atleast had 6 possies and one goal in the first game this season so lets see if the selectors have the balls to drop him (Davis) and a few others just thinking about it Or is it a points system that gives certain players the right to have disgraceful shockers and get away with it time and time again And I thought promoting belief in our younger players was the thing to do In my opinion I thought Auskick was stiff to left out of the side after Rd 1

Looking with interest on what they may do at the selection table this week have heard some whispers but keeping them close for the moment because well not so sure for once and its a bit early in the week

Ooh. Tuco excited. :p

Posting this in the "Davo" thread isn't a clue is it? :D

I notice that Dempster is upgraded to a test this week. Would he be a chance at all? I think we could cover Tadgh a lot better with him back in the side. Plus we have a lot of talls to cover this round with the Saints coming up. Perhaps this could be Laidlaw's week? Roos like to put the acid o youth against quality opposition.

Whatever happens, we need to free Mal up again. He was good on the weekend, but I reckon Kennelly's injury cost him 10 possies, and we all know how damaging those possies can be when the ball is in Mal's hands.

Dropping Davis would be stupid, unlike Auskick Davis has already proved his worth. Sure, he may had one bad game but every single Swans fan and AFL fan out there know what Davis is capable of. Sure, if he plays 5 games in a row like that then cut him, but cutting him on one bad game is moronic. I don't know if you are referring to Davis when you say "gives certain players the right to have disgraceful shockers and get away with it time and time again" because ever since he's come back into the team after he got dropped he's had one 'shocker' which was last week.

If you want to talk about Swans players who have had many 'shockers' this year then you can't go past McVeigh.

I do agree with you that dropping Auskick after round 1 was a bit stiff. He definately didn't deserve it. We played the best team in the competition, he should have been given atleast 1 more round. I hope he gets another chance soon.
 
I totally agree that Davis certainly should not be chopped, but it is damned frustrating when he plays a blinder one week and then plays like he has somewhere better to be the following week. When in God's name are they going to finally get rid of that tool McVeigh? I reckon I could do more for the team than this fool and I'm a middle aged woman who's never kicked a footy in her life!

Lol, you take McVeigh's place, i'll take J.Bolton's. I definately think we could do a much better job.
