Outs. Melksham - long term injury.  Oliver - indefinite. Joel Smith - suspension TBC.

Kozzy missing round 0 but available for round 1.  
Billings may get the nod ahead of Chandler at the start.

Hopefully Brayshaw and Petty are right to play.

I'm surprised you have T.Mac in the best 22

Normie what do you think of me dropping Tomlinson? Lever to CHB and Brayshaw to change in between HB and midfield.

I'm sure Oliver won't be fit enough for the opening round I think he may play in the 2's. I'm not sure how fit McAdam and Billings are. Billings is getting over a hamstring and has injury problems in the past and McAdam hasn't looked fit since joining the club. The sub role could suit him as he won't play an entire game.

I'm tossing between Billings and Tholstrup. If Billings is fully fit then it's Billings but if not it's Tholstrup. 

 

Here's a different take for the off-season ...

We've got a bit of an age hole in our list with no-one born in 1998 on it.  There's an 18 month gap between Schache currently at 26y4m and Fullarton at 24y10m.  There happens to be 21 players Schache and older and 23 players Fullarton and younger so I've gone for two line-ups of the "mature" and the "youthful".  It does give a bit of insight into positional depth.

Mature
B: Tomlinson May Hore
HB: Salem Lever Brayshaw
R: Gawn Oliver Viney
C: Hunter Petracca Langdon
HF: ANB McDonald McAdam
F: Fritsch B.Brown Melksham
I: Billings Schache Smith

Youthful
B: McVee Adams Rivers
HB: Howes Turner Bowey
R: Fullarton Sparrow Laurie
C: Spargo Woewodin Windsor
HF: Chandler Petty AMW
F: Pickett JVR Jefferson
I: Verrall Sestan Tholstrup K.Brown KFW

You can quibble over the position selection - the only one I selected who really hasn't played there, doesn't played there currently at MFC or Casey, or isn't earmarked to play there is Spargo on the wing.  Howes could slot in there but who plays back then? I think that young backline needs a bit of his height.

The Swans possible team.

B: Cunningham, McCartin, Lloyd

HB; Florent, Rampe, Blakey

C: Ch.Warner, Rowbottom, McInerney

HF: Adams, McDonald, Heeney

F: Hayward, Amartey, Papley

FOLL: Grundy, Parker, Gulden

IC: McLean, Jordon, Campbell, Fox

SUB: Wicks

 

Lever can take McDonald and May can take Amartey we don't need a third tall defender.

Good give Disco a go and he can just take up from where he left off in Round 24 last year.

So glad to have Marty Hore back in the ranks again.

Was very disappointed after his departure but he's back again where he belongs.

Won't be easy breaking into the best defence in the Competition but it he adds more pressure and depth.

Maybe he'll get a gig with Rivers playing in the middle more often.

I also hope Tomlinson is a regular in the backline this year along with a healthy and fit Salo.

Really a player of Marty’s limited ability a saviour? I can’t see it. Disco yes and Adams later in the year but an interceptor who will  struggle vs Weightman and JUH worries me a lot.

Saviors a tad strong don't you think?

You reworded my post.

I said I think he's a player who adds more depth and pressure. That's it and that's all. Simple.

Your post was a big leap from there 58 er. Almost Kozzie like .

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
