Not a bad team. Swans fans feel free to critique if you feel I have left someone out or if there is a mistake.

Thanks Mike - pretty good team there. Fairly young ? Is there any locals playing for other WAFL clubs at the moment in there ? So we continue with the tact that Freeze is on which is probably appropriate for this exercise. How do you think you'd go tackling the EF and Subi line-ups ?

I know that Ray Daniels (from Swans - was he a local for you ?) played 3 league games for Subi this year which is unfortunate as he looked much better last season and just lacked the consistency this year.

No these guys all played for Swans this year, if we were looking at ex Swans players playing for other WAFL clubs we could have included Marcus Adams and Stephen Potente from West Perth, Brett Wolfenden from Perth and perhaps guys from the aligned clubs such as Conor Blakely and Murray Newman who played more WAFL than AFL?

I think the team above would be competitive. A good defence but may struggle a bit with kicking enough goals. Sounds a bit like the Dockers!

Thats right forgot about him. Also that forward at South Freo whose name escapes me at the moment. Im sure there are a few others.

Ok I think we continue with Freezes line and add the locals playing for other WAFL teams but for the purpose of this exercise its WAFL only so we aren't looking at any AuFL listed players. Can you add in the players you mentioned and their possible positions and we can get a true indication of a Swannies all local full strength WAFL team. The only addition I'd have for Subi under the Freeze system would be Hampson up forward somewhere.

Not sure Chopper would bring in Marcus Adams (maybe at full forward) Nuich would drop to the bench. Maybe Potente on the bench instead of Coniglio. Ridley would be the other one to drop out. Not sure if I would include Wolfenden. Perhaps get some input from BH, DW or Swandog.

Swans local boys that played at other clubs this season were-

P- Wolfenden, Latch, Johnston
WP- Adams, Potente
$- Daniels
SF- Pullman
WART- Newman, Bennell
FART- Blakely, Hughes, C.Pearce, Lawler, Gill

Adams, Potente & Pullman would be definites plus all the AFL boys listed above into our locals side.

christ I didn't think of that system BH.......chopper chuck in Kennedy, Masten, Sheppard,Cripps, Lucas and Yeo from WART and Sandilands, Griffen, Duffy and Ibbotsen from FART into that team of mine.....stick em on the bench if you want

If they've left the club mikeh I don't want them in. Position wise I'd swap Burnham and Dean in the line up you went with just because i like Dean's work under the ruckman so much. Ridley on the bench is one the club is expecting big things from in future but had a very quiet end to his season in colts so I'd swap him out for Nelson Anstey if he is one we can claim as a product of SD after a super finals series in the ressies and adds size in either forward or defence where he can pinch hit and add flexibility. If not then Jessie Turner gets a birth for me on the bench as I reckon at this stage he is a bit in front of Levi. Tried to think of colts who could step up but for a team playing in 2015 but honestly couldnt find a spot for them where i thought it would make the team stronger. I reckon your about on the money. Defence half is super solid. Midfield would have the defence on their toes and forward line with Notte up front looks better already. On a dry day Notte, Anstey and Nuich rotating upfront might just go ok

We re getting off track here.
No that's not my angle on this thread it's not an AFL list or a your best side from all competitions - I think we've been down that road before some time back ???
This is purely WAFL players only nobody on AuFL lists here or over East.
WAFL players only who are or could be playing for your club in 2015 who are locals not imports and they must have played a league game in 2015

No Wart or Fart players - nobody on an AuFL list just local WAFL players.
