I'm going to head down to watch.

Will give some updates through the game and will do a write up afterwards.

Was hoping that Bedendo would play and perform well to press his case a we bloody well need some viable options in the forward half, but he must be out under health & safety protocols (just say he has covid FFS!)

Seems Parker is out for the same reason given he hasn't featured in the injury list... any one else?

Doesn't look like McNeil is named and haven't heard that he is injured so i guess those 3 are who Bevo was referring to the other day.

They might not actually have Covid, they can still get caught up in the protocols if they are deemed a close contact, eg a housemate catches it.

Good test for Sweet - he is up against 3 ruckman, two of which are AFL quality.

It's a shame that Parker, McNeil and Bedendo miss through covid protocols. I think that Parker would be a good option to develop on the wing while the other two are lively forwards.

Butler prominent on the wing so far.

Our forwardline is tiny. Jones nearly kicked a great goal.

Swans 2.2 to Dogs 0.2 after 16 mins - both Swans goals to Schache’s opponent

That one wasn’t his fault… shocking F50 entry by us and we got caught on the counter.

Have not looked like kicking a goal or even taking a mark up forward.

Really not fluid movement forward and completely lacking in targets. Chatfield the only one forward who looks like contesting for a mark.
