COLLINGWOOD V SWANS

MATCH UPS:
DUNKLEY/CUMMINGS
BUCKLEY/CRESSWELL
RICHARDSON/LOCKETT
WAKELIN/HALL
McKEE/GOODES
SCHAUBLE/KINNEAR

WHERE WE CAN WIN:
WE HAVE NOT GOT A GOOD DEFENSIVE UNIT IN(TALL PLAYERS ESPECIALLY)
SO WE HAVE TO PLAY A RUNNING POSSESION STYLE GAME.IT WILL BE A TEST OF OUR SKILL LEVEL AT THIS STAGE OF THE YEAR.ANY SKILL ERROR WILL BE TURNED OVER VERY QUICKLY ON THE WIDE EXPANSES OF MANUKA.IF WE CAN MOVE THE BALL QUICKLY AND BEAT THE SYDNEY FLOOD
AND HIT CUMMINGS ON THE LEAD CUMMINGS COULD HAVE A GOOD DEBUT MATCH.

LOCKETT FACTOR:
MY TIP FOR HIS OPPONET IS M. RICHARDSON

WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE:
NATHAN BUCKLEY TO PLAY THE LAST 10 MIN. OF EACH
QUARTER ACROSS HALF FOWARD BECAUSE IF HE MARKS AROUND 50
HE IS IN RANGE AND USUALLY HIS TAGGER IS NOT AN ABOVE
THE HEAD TYPE PLAYER AND COULD CAUSE A MISMATCH
