2nds Reserves 2012

[grimlock]

The latest injury report says he should be back on Friday. No Jed Lamb though. AND STILL NO BRETT MEREDITH

 

[SydneyGoose]

I'm going to be taking a half day on Friday to get to the resizes game before the seniors on Friday. I'm hoping to see a decent amount of time go into Tom Mitchell. I'm assuming I can't walk up to the huddle at the SCG?

 

[grimlock]

Mitchell & Meredith will return for the ressies against Sydney Uni

 

[grimlock]

Also, a mid season review here from Crouch including an explanation on why Morton is not getting selected for the seniors.

“He is also dealing with a Swans senior forward line that is functioning pretty well at the moment. If you think of Sam Reid, Lewis Roberts-Thomson up forward, Adam Goodes coming back this week and Trent Dennis-Lane who has had his opportunity at senior level, they’re the type of guys that Mitch is fighting with for a place

Sam Reid, Lewis Roberts-Thomson and Trent Dennis-Lane have kicked 23 goals in their combined 24 games for the season. It's hardly striking fear into our opponents.

Shin according to the injury report

I still reckon Morton is "one-dimensional" in a team that only works when it's adaptable and unpredictable. If the coach says that the forward line is functioning pretty well then I reckon he's talking about the movement and versatility. And I'd I agree him. And I might be keeping Morton out too, especially if there are "issues" when he is asked to do something that he's not keen on.

[bedford]

What rule does it break?

I got red -carded from RA for mentioning it, Its in our board rules and i still don't know why he didn't put it on here.

SG, I'm guessing that you didn't get to the huddle at the SCG ??
That's one of the things I love about following the NEAFL.

 

[SM]

Highlight was being within 10 points at quarter time. Lowlight was the freezing cold that made me lose interest in the match after that.

 

[vonn]

& lack of food.

After all the good things being said about our young pickups I was just wondering
have we ever had a year where everyone, nd and rookie, eventually made the grade?

 

[grimlock]

Well an Aker-inspired Tuggeranong just beat the Giants reserves for their first win of the year. We play the Giants next week and given the results of their past month I don't think we are going to get much competition which is disappointing for a AFL reserves side was meant to offer more
