Hypothetically speaking, if Sincalir was to go down with a season ending injury, who would start Naismith over Gawn?

I don't think Sinkers needs to be completely out for Naismith to be considered, although it obviously helps

If Naismith is the clear #1 ruck again this weekend, then that's probably enough to suggest he'll be their #1 even with Sinkers in the side

Agreed, but it would be more incentive to start him.  Can see Sinclair playing forward to cover Buddy/Reid, but when they are back in fit Naismith could go straight back out if Swans go by pecking order, not talent.

He is their number 1 with Sinclair giving him a chop out. His scoring history has been complete trash though, even when starting as the number 1 so I'd pass

They said Gawn to play this weekend on the news ..... might have to change my team when I was just about happy with it  :-\

Sinclair named ruck, Naismith FF. Not an option.

Damn. 67sc in a half. Unfortunately I think he might just be essential...only Marshall, Jacobs or the injury prone duo of NN/Kreuzer remain. For now I've re-done my team to fit Gawn in.

Can't really be a surprise to you right? Just a normal half for Gawn  8)

Honestly not having GG only really hurt me one time last season. Unfortunately that was the final round, where Gawn had his best game and Goldy had his worst at the same time. That's why I don't deem starting GG 100% necessary.

Yeah you've said that before, but not having the 2nd highest point scorer in the entire game definitely hurt you more than once ;)

Straightback in

Haha  ;D

Finally realised that Sauce/NN/Naismith etc are not worth it? ;)

Ingram

Comfortable with Grundy Ceglar, with Xerri and Cameron Fwd and able to rotate.

Absolute necessity based on that half last night

Sauce killing it early ... maybe he’s back in the side haha ... need to go deeper on other lines

Remember that he's up against Soldo and Coleman Jones, probably the easiest opponents he'll get all year.
