Dropped The Hall

The Sydney Swans have resorted to dropping spearhead Barry Hall for the next game or two. He could probably have been dropped for form alone but it did seem obvious that he wasn't as fit as he should be. A mid season wake up call could mean he will come back and absolutely run rings around any opposing player. It may also act as a motivator to the rest of the team who may have been in the mindset that Barry will make it happen. Without him everyone else needs to lift otherwise they will be the next to be dropped. I am sure that the layers know this and are pumped for a big game against league leaders Geelong. It will be a tough ask traveling down there, a ground that Geelong has made into a fearful fortress. I think the job might be too huge but I am still hopeful. A good show here could still be a turning point in our season to make a run for the finals.

Also dropped for this week is Adam Schneider and Heath Grundy. They make way for Nick Davis, Jarred Moore and debutant Matt Laidlaw. Good luck to the young fella it will sure be a huge welcome to the big league. Good on Roos for backing the youngster in the crunch game.
