Im glad he went to the dogs after the Swans didnt match the offer. Atleast he got to stay in Melbourne.
I didnt think he would be ahead of Jing in the best 22 but he did play. Dont see any changes to the team now

Minson or Campbell in and roughead back? Great in the ruck but need to utilize him around ground with less impact injury chance. If so forces someone out????

Surprising that we don't have Minno or Campbell back in... Suppose Bevo's thinking why change a winning side, I don't think we'll see Roughy down back much this season unless we get injuries or start to struggle down there
I don't think Bevo sees him as a backman, instead going with guys like Roberts, Talia and Hamling last year and even playing Wood as that second key defender. I think they'd like him as a second ruck and swingman / mr fix-it.
Yeah I agree, been training ruck+forward over the preseason
I think Bailey Dale comes in for Dunkley but could be wrong... We'll find out 5pm Friday

As much, if not more, than Simpkin. The spot is his to lose. You only need him to play for another 6-7 weeks and he's done his job for you. In this form, he's not getting dropped any time soon.
i didnt grab papley last week as i wasnt sure if McGlynn would come in for him. if he is named this week i will get him
Zac Jones hasn't set the world on fire in the first 2 rounds. I think he is in more danger of being omitted than Paps is.
Agreed, also think Hewitt and couple other are more likely than Papley, he seems to have found a role in the team rather than just being a kid who's thrown around off the bench
The position he is playing though is McGlynn old position as small roving fwd. Jones is playing as a back and off HB so Macca may come in for him
Near zero chance Papley is dropped this week I reckon
Only way Papley gets dropped this week is if he goes on a Cousins-esque bender. Not like McGlynn is the second-coming of Kevin Bartlett either.
Swans would be taking a giant step backwards playing McGlynn. Papley is the future, it's his spot to lose IMO

Papley has added another dimension to the small forward position at Sydney. Will not be dropped
