Sinclair told me during the claremont game he was hoping to be back in two weeks.
Hoping to get time to go to this game. Iv’e been out of action for a few weeks.
Even if the skills aren’t great it shapes as a good contest. Swans look too good on paper but they haven’t being playing as well as one would have thought. That means stuff all tomorrow when they run out though.
Full marks to Subi for playing the young blokes this year. I cringed when I see they dropped Boges against the Tiggers after playing a great game 1st up but then with a win I can’t say it was the wrong decission - back in the next game and did a fine job against the Dogs.
Like the fact that Grover has been left in the 2nds - Leave him there for a while and let him find consistant form over a few weeks - Great 1st up game though.
I hope that Herring doesn’t get a game this week as I think it may make our forwards too top heavy ? I think our current mix is fairly mobile and we’ll need to be on our toes as I think we’ll need to score more goals than we’ve been kicking to get over the line.
I luv playing the Swannies as they get a good passionate crowd along and I don’t mind a bit of banter - But I do like a win against them - See you there ???
Last Time they met
Well done swans you played well, exactly like you look on paper. A definate threat to the tiges if you can repeat that effort consistently. We looked flat, poor skills & very little intensity, guess we’ve been up for a few weeks so these things will happen with a young side. Losing McDougall & Stevenson before the game hurt us, but all is not lost as we still have alot of good players to return, Gum & Grover played magoos today, Gum had alot of the ball & a fit & firing Grover would’ve been handy vs Geappen. Surely Sinclair will be back next week & hopefully also McDougall, Stevo & McDonald, plus young Sheed when state 18’s is over. We’ll be ok I recon.

I didnt actually notice that McDougall wasnt playing until you just mentioned it DG ..we also should have Blight, Jetta, Rogers, Casserly, Lammie back in the League soon plus Charlie Cameron from the WA 18’s as well!! :cheer:

I wasn’t making comparisons BH, I know you blokes also have alot of blokes out, you would have probably beaten us today even if we were at full strength, but beware, this game reminded me alot of our game vs old easts earlier in the season. They looked a million bucks that day but look how they’ve been going since…

Yeah i hear ya DG ..to be honest mate we have been so ordinary at times this season I dont know if all of those blokes will make us any better at all but I do know we would have been a lot better this year if Blight had played more than just the Round 1 game vs EF so far as he is integral to our side!

Yeah whats the story with Blight? I know he’s a good player but he didnt do alot in your winning magoos side today, is he carrying something or just fed up with not getting a shot in the league side & if thats the case do you think he’ll hang around next season?

Ah I see. Yep good in for you.
As it turns out I couldn’t get to the game today but it looks as though it was a good one to miss according to the stats and scoreboard ??? Well done swans on a big win !!!
Did you Swannies play that well or were Subi just ordinary (or a combination) ???
See the Ducks beat us in the ressies to so a good day for them.
How did Herring go ? I was hoping the forwards would stay as is but I see with Stevo out he was the likely replacement.
Can anyone give me a summary of the game ? - Iv’e taped it but probably won’t get a chance to view it till mid week
WTF happend to SUBI today.. they were never in it.. Fark give me a break guys I picked you.. Yeh that could of been the problem.
I suppose like CLA when you beat them you had a bad hair day?
Shit happens..Well at least I got CLA right thats 1 out of 2 and with 2 tomorrow e.g WP AND PERTH should get three but dont quote me LOL
I cant comment on Subi Chopper best to ask LH, DG or SS about your form but from Swans that was the best we have played all year in the first 3 qtrs (about time I might add) ..but the last qtr was more like our season’s form has been to date!
We played with some intensity for part of the second qtr & also in the 4th when it was all over but generally our disposal & decision making was terrible & we didnt apply pressure as we have been doing lately. Only young Waters was hitting targets & applying pressure consistantly. This pretty much sums it up - http://www.subiacofc.com.au/club-news/1626-swans-outclass-subiaco.html
Thanks guy’s
A game best forgotten :S I’m going to try to anyway.

How did Herring play ? I haven’t warmed to the big fella yet - he looks to one dimensionable and struggles when the pill hits the ground. Looks more like an old fashioned one grab and kick player and I don’t think he’s getting enough marks.
In saying that I have seen him take a few good marks before and that’s what we need out of him - I’m just not convinced he’s our man but I hope I’m wrong.

He wouldnt have got a game if either McDougall or Stevo didnt pull out before the game Chopper. With the two mentioned plus Grover & Sinclair to come back in he is really only a back up player. Good reserves footballer but seems to struggle at league level. Really needs to lift as he takes up 10 valuable pts & if he doesnt we should get rid of him next season.
