Let's have the Adam Goodes Medal up for grabs at every Swans game.

Going to the game. Keen to see Dale Thomas do his thing.

I suspect Bolts agrees with you.

x 2

I would like to see Jaksch in the side sooner rather than later however he probably hasn't quite earned his spot yet.

Out: Bucks & White

I think we need Byrnes pace and we can afford to drop white although Everitt is lucky to survive cull

Disagree. I have seen comments in this forum about him adding structure to our foward line. If anything he breaks down our structures. Have a look at the amount of times we had to bomb it in. He doesn't lead and expects to take the big pack mark every time, which he may take once every 15 times if u are lucky. Plonking himself where he does also takes the space away from others to lead. Did I mention that he is useless when the ball hits the ground? And he doesn't kick goals? But I forgot there is time on his side he is still only young 27, so plenty of time to develop. What makes me laugh is some supporters got sucked in the we were offered a 1st, 2nd or even a 3rd pick for him, the truth is the other clubs laughed in our face. So just remind me what value he adds ?

Jaksch has to replace Casboult.

Need Bucks' pace to attack the lines, same with Thomas and Byrne.

Graham is much like Brock, one pacer who can find the ball but doesn't really hurt or pressure the opposition.

I've been furious about this since the selections came in. Byrne stomped all over their choice with his VFL performance.

For mine:

Out: Everitt, Phillips, White, Lamb
In: C.Curnow, Jaksch, Byrne, Thomas

Something's up with Everitt, and it's not form related. I guessed fascia injury in another thread.

On second thought, I've been a bit savage on Everitt there. :lol:

Out: Phillips, White, Lamb
In: C.Curnow, Byrne, Thomas

Adds more than you do as a poster. Last year he rucked pretty well and hit the scoreboard very regularly. Clubs were very interested, SOS said the himself on SEN at trade time. I'll take his word over someone with an obvious agenda. People with agendas you can't take seriously on a particular subject. Played well last year hence the interest.

Outside of his goal kicking, he took marks, got touches and generally played pretty well. His kicking at goal brought that down unfortunately. Goalkicking could've made it a really good game. To have a shot for goal you have to get it first. He did that whereas other may be be able to. He's a shit kick but if he keeps grabbing them he'll kick a few. Need the 2 key forward so one doesn't take the heat of the defence. If it's either Jaksch or Casboult it'll be alot harder work for that reason. I assume you can grasp that.

Need both.

Byrne for Buckley, Jaksch for White. Thomas probably come in too.
