Where is J Grant?

Where is J Grant?

Not playing at Williamstown in either the ones or the twos.

Has he been out on the training track?

Where is J Grant?

They are filming the new series of Merlin and have finally decided that Colin Morgan is actually rubbish and have brought in Jarrad as he is much better at pretending to do something magic

Where is J Grant?

Didn't Bmac mention in his letter last week (or maybe a press conference) something about players being unavailable for the Geelong game due to 'unavailability' which a few people on here mentioned was strange.

Maybe it's Grant? Personal issue?

I'm thinking the same.

Re: Match Committee- Round 10 vs Sydney

I'd go with Jones along with Ayce, Roughy and Will. Normally I'd find it too top heavy but it's not like we have smalls knocking the door down. I think another tall forward will give us more value than another in and under type like Smith who is struggling to make an impact (just talking short term) or a small defender in Pearce who seems green.

Re: Match Committee- Round 10 vs Sydney

From the bench named I'd play Higgins, Picken, Jones & Dickson - Wood coming back from injury is my sub.

Very surprised Cordy comes straight back in.

Re: Match Committee- Round 10 vs Sydney

Cordy named straight back into the side pretty much says that he's ahead of Jones at the moment. Jones certainly isn't going to dislodge Minson or Roughead, and considering we are playing at the SCG, there is absolutely no need for a CHF.

1/ Surely that isn't the case, Cordy is miles behind Jones.

2/ Jones doesn't play the role of the lead up CHF anyway, he tends to play 'deep'.

1/ Surely that isn't the case, Cordy is miles behind Jones.

The selection committee over the last two weeks seem to suggest otherwise - Jones was a late in when Cordy didn't pull up last week, and he's been named in the selected side ahead of Jones this week.
B-Mac thus far hasn't been one to play games with selection.

I'm not sure what they are building their case on, while Ayce is improving he has yet to have any impact on a game thus far, Liam on the other hand was more than serviceable last week against very good opposition.

Extremely puzzled by this.

Re: Match Committee- Round 10 vs Sydney

It'd be a real slap in the face for Jones if he missed this week. He would have easily had his best game post Barry Hall and he's struggling to hold his spot. Could we go with all of the bigs?

[always right]

Re: Match Committee- Round 10 vs Sydney

Right or wrong....could the intention be to try and stretch the Swans for height by playing both Cordy and Jones?. Wouldn't that be a first for our club?

I would think if there is one ground you might get away with this it's the SCG.

Re: Match Committee- Round 10 vs Sydney

So Sherman gets a rest , fine with that as part of the rotation

Sherman had clearly been dropped. He is not resting but relegated to Williamstown.

[Bulldog Joe]

Re: Match Committee- Round 10 vs Sydney

I agree that Jones responded well and it would be a surprise to see him miss. Perhaps they are letting him now that he is certainly not an automatic selection.

It must be remembered that Cordy also played his best game at his last appearance.

Jones still remains a problem as a key forward because of his inept kicking where he struggles to average one goal a game. Cordy has improved on last year and BMcC may well be grooming both Jones and Cordy as the two key forwards leaving Minson and Roughead to share the rucking duties
