Good changes, Garth stiff but someone has to make way for Dave. Need the best we can against Swans forwards.

KMac dropping not suprising, hopefully he gets some form in the reserves.

[Tiger Khosh]

Teams looking strong. Hopefully bachar back next week

That is a strong looking Sydney team on paper.

Who’s on Ronke?

Surely not B.Ellis, then again I’m expecting any Sydney player playing on B.Ellis to have a good night. 

I expect Sydney, who enjoy playing man on man, will expose and utilise any match up on Brandon, knowing full well he’s a scardy cat and I also expect big numbers from Conca as they’ll be happy to allow him as much of the ball as he likes because they know he will be giving it straight back more times than not.

This game will reveal whether or not these two blokes are up to it in regards to finals footy and I’ll be happy to back them in if either of them prove me wrong tonight.

Yes BEllis is playing on him. Conca is in the ruck. Your 3rd most hated play, whoever that is, is doing something important too.

[Diocletian]

He already did, he retired....

Match ups at both ends are going to be interesting. Will we target Allir at ground level as the Swans will want to use him as a loose defender picking off our inside 50s? Both sides will play an extra man back.

At the other end, do we play Astbury or Broad on McCartin who plays high CHF for the Swans? Who has the speed and height (188cm) to go with Rohan?

Rance -> Franklin
Astbury -> McCartin
Grimes -> Hayward
Broad -> Rohan
Floss -> Ronke
Leaving Short/Ellis -> Hewett
