Team v Swans

[crazzzy_grrl]

SYDNEY v WEST COAST EAGLES
Saturday, 7:30pm, Telstra Stadium

SYDNEY
B: Crouch, Schauble, Bolton
HB: Barry, Goodes, Kennelly
C: Ablett, Maxfield, Mathews
HF: O'Keefe, Hall, Buchanan
F: Williams, O'Loughlin, Nicks
FOLL: Ball, Kirk, Bolton
I/C: Bevan, Davis, Doyle, Schneider
EMG: Dempster, McVeigh, Powell
No change

WEST COAST EAGLES
B: Chick, Glass, Wirrpunda
HB: Banfield, Hunter, Morrison
C: Wooden, Cousins, Braun
HF: Sampi, Lynch, Staker
F: Matera, McDougall, Adkins
FOLL: Cox, Judd, Fletcher
I/C: Seaby, Embley, Butler, Kerr
EMG: B.Jones, R.Jones, Beeck
IN: Kerr
OUT: Jones

No huge surprise for the eagles, i think most of us expected that change. I think they mght take both Jones's as emergencies, B.Jones incase either Chick or Morrison don't come up, thought B.Jones would be playing finals footy for claremont if he doesnt play for the eagles and R.Jones in case Kerr doesn't come up but I highly doubt that

Ah stability - it's a wonderful thing... especially around finals time!

Bring it on!

 

[Ruddiger]

What a great line up.

A friend at work was telling me today that Doogs was really sharp at training on Wednesday - really accurate and very confident going in to this match.

Wonder if Lynch will play at CHB and CHF ?? What do you think - Glass or Lynch on Barry Hall ?

 

[larrikin]

Would be happy if we lined up as named, with the obvious Hunter/Glass switch

 

[Thrawn666]

What do you think - Glass or Lynch on Barry Hall ?

Glass should get the job.

He didnt do too badly on Hall last time, and he wasnt long back from injury.

Hall would be too quick for Lynch on the lead

 

[jod23]

A solid line up, we are almost at full strength. Really only Gardiner and Waters could probably lay claim to a place in the 22. Kerr back in is a positive.

 

[TRIGGAMAN]

Is anyone thinking that we should drop Sraker for Hansen?

Or is Hansen still out?......Or am i just way off?

 

[Streaker]

Is anyone thinking that we should drop Staker for Hansen?

Or is Hansen still out?......Or am i just way off?

Hansen is still suffering a Hamstring strain.

 

[coasting]

I wouldn't be surprised if Staker made way for one of the emergencies. A great prospect for the future but sadly out of form at the moment.

 

[brownbob]

Any late change?
I also would not be surprized to see an emergency come in for tomorrow's game. I feel it might be Beeck; he was in scintillating form at CHB for East Perth and the coaching staff may have him earmarked for that position, thus freeing up Hunter to further stretch Sydneys lack of defensive height.
I feel it's quite a distinct possibility - otherwise why take him to Sydney.
Just a smokescreen?
Looking forward to the clash tomorrow.

Staker won't be dropped because
1) looked very good at training on wednesday night
2) he was one of the BOG last time we played sydney

 

[TRIGGAMAN]

I know i was the one who bought up the whole drop Staker thing but the good people at 6pr made me realise that he can play back as well as foward. Thus he has great value in case on of them swans fowards gets a bit smart.
