[RUNVS]

Sunday February 22
Match 8: Sydney Swans v Port Adelaide, Manuka Oval 15:40
FOX

I know its abit early but i doesnt really matter.

This is the team i would like to see play in Round 1 (and im assuming Faulks, Thornton and Bruce will be picked up again).

1. Ed Barlow
2. Paul Bevan
3. Craig Bird
4. Ryan Brabazon
5. Daniel Currie
6. Peter Faulks
7. Nic Fosdike
8. Heath Grundy
9. Kieren Jack
10. Matthew Laidlaw
11. Jarrad McVeigh
12. Jarred Moore
13. Brendan Murphy
14. Matthew O'Dwyer
15. Daniel O'Keefe
16. Henry Playfair
17. Tim Schmidt
18. Rhyce Shaw
19. Kristin Thornton
20. Patrick Veszpremi
21. Jake Oreall
22. Brett Meredith

I really hope we win this game as i dont think Paul Roos has won a NAB Cup game in his time as coach.

and he never will...

hope to see all those players play in the nab cup and the other pre-season matches after we get eliminated, but not all at once

and what about johnston.... is he not good enough to make the list? with a list like that, johnston will probably be BOG

Johnston won't be needed in the NAB cup because McVeigh will already be "going forward and not kicking goals".....

Too early to think about considering we haven't even finalised our list.

I dont know how you could say that. The team doesnt look too bad to me. It shows that the Swans have considerably more depth than most give us credit for.

As for Johnston i have this faint memory that in NAB Cup games each team has 24 players instead of the standard 22 players. I could be wrong but if this is true then Johnston should play.

Peter Faulks has been delisted. Roosy plays our reserves team in the NAB Cup and this game will be no different. Fingers crossed for no injuries (Malceski vs the Hawks this year was devastating).
