    Wiliams in on the LTI at the moment and Austin has been elevated in his place. Morris isn't on the LTI and if he is added it means he can't play at any level for the next 8 weeks minimum.

    We can promote a rookie after round 11 without need for a player to be injured.

      Who do you think we might promote next?

        Look for Campbell to be elevated from the rookie list after Round 11.

          That's my expectation too.

            His form at VFL level is good, but is he ahead of Minson, Roughead and Cordy? There is no point in promoting a player unless the expectation is that they are good enough to demand a regular game at AFL level or they are filling a medium to long term injury need.

            McCartney seems happy with the progress of the above mentioned three so I can't see him effectively demoting one of them to Willy to give Campbell a try. Remember that both Street and Skipper had better form at Willy than Campbell is presently showing, not that I am saying he will not be a better player than those two.

            If Jong can maintain his run of form, or Johannison comes back strongly from injury, they might be better chances, or it may simply be a case of steady as she goes with the current list.

              Doubt that we have 3 guys fighting for a spot in the ruck / forward department so I doubt we will throw another tall ruck if we don't need to. Especially after seeing how good Minson is actually doing (does not get enough appreciation imo)

              Johanison would be likely if he didn't injure himself was putting a few steady performances together and that kid has some pace

              Will be interesting to see which way they go regardless

                As for our opponents, looks like no Goodes and uncertain about Mumford from an injury report a week old



                When did we last play them without Goodes? IIRC he always plays well against us

                IMO we're in with a real chance the way they have been playing.

                  They haven't been in the best form of late and with Goodes and Mumford out who are important players for them it gives us every chance. Do you think the home advantage to the Swans will play in their favour though?

                    I think the ground will suit our contested possession type footy. If we do bomb it long it will be in that dangerous spot out from goal and all we will need to do is mark it or bring it to ground. It could be a game suited for Sherman if he plays.

                        Goodes does play well against us, but then we've just seen two who have done it more than most in Champman, and S.Johnson

                        Its an important game

                        I'm afraid we will drop our intensity and you would expect the Swans to be primed after their disappointing fall away after beating the Hawks

                          Jong has been in pretty good form.

                          If we don't have another long term injury, it will have to be Austin again though. Williams is only 4-5 weeks away from playing.

                            There's also Tom Hill who is a ruck / forward that is playing well at Williamstown.
                            You could argue that Campbell is ahead of Hill but Hill is on the main list and just as deserving of a shot so should get first dibs if an opportunity arises.

                              We have a 9 day break and Syd have 8 days.. think its going to be a close game but we are in with a real chance seeing their no1 ruck and no1 1 player are both down.
