Sydney Round 1 Team

[CrowsFan]

So none of you see Armstrong getting a starting berth at this point in time?

[Capper]

not at this stage

[SydneyRox]

Not anymore, I cant see them risking him back from injury. Will spend some time in the seconds before getting his chance.

[Capper]

No Hannebery, Armstrong, TDL, LRT or Meredith playing this weekend.

Will TDL ever play for the 1s this year???

[TheMailman]

I think he still needs to develop as a player

I'm pretty sure Longmuire saw 2010 just as a taster for TDL to see if he'd excel which he did resaonably, but I think a couple of times he was too easily shut down by the top 8-9 teams in the comp and he needs to work on his strength so I'm not sure how long it will take.

[Capper]

yeh but he killed the 2s lat year when he played , didnt he???

[TheMailman]

So does Jesse White and Vezspremi did as well :S

JW needs to work on his arms they clearly arent big enough and didn't the Vesper leave??? played for the dogs last year

[TheMailman]

That's why I said "did"

I just couldn't put any other names off the top of my head.

[My Chumps]

Jesse's got the body, he just needs to use it more.
Kills the seconds against lighter frames.

[Capper]

needs to relax and practice kicking between the big sticks

JW is a project player, came late to AFL from basketball. What lets him down is the ball sense and his own fwd movements. By the fact he played some many games, I go the impression he had a license "to learn" last year knowing they were not going to mark him too harshly, but I would think if he cant develop this year he wont be resigned (pretty sure he is out of contract end of this year)

From what I saw Vesper had too many injury issues and lacked the necessary discipline when his body was right. A player with skills that lacked the Swans work ethic required? I may be wrong, but that is how I interpreted all the stuff that went on with him.

[TheMailman]

All of you guys are right, I was merely comparing TDL to him, he's a bit of a project player as well

[Capper]

i think TDL is more of a FF where the vespa was better in the pocket

[SydneyRox]

I really like TDL, I watched him in a couple of WAFL games before he got drafted, very happy we picked him up.
He weill go well, just needs to string a few games together.
