Does Kemp have the aerobic capacity to run with Heeney everywhere and anywhere, he'd be a good match for the overhead stuff and has enough zip to stop Heeney breaking away?
Heeney presents a similar problem for opponents as our own Martin, they both are agile and play in traffic very well, but are far better overhead than comparably sized opponents.

McCartin ruled out for them again.

Last time we played them in the EF Cerra and Saad were among our best, I don't see either side holding an advantage at the moment, it will be a tough game.

Which block is the better, given who we beat, and where we currently sit?
Team-margin -current ladder position
Tom DeKoning rucking
Brisbane +1 (currently 13th)
Richmond +5 (currently 17th)
North Melbourne +56 (currently 18th)
Fremantle +10 (currently 9th)
Pittonet /DeKoning sharing the load
Adelaide -2 (currently 12th)
GWS +19 ( currently 5th)
Geelong -13 (currently 2nd)
Collingwood -6 (currently 8th)
Melbourne +1 (currently 4th)
Probably most important to consider.
Whom it was against.

Swans are firing on all cylinders at the moment. Leaving aside I. Zucchini, they have plenty of stars going through that midfield, the highest %, highest points for and lowest against. They will be our toughest opponent to date. I can't see a win to be honest.

Yes. There's a sizeable body of work recently that suggests we won't be blown away, and we are a real chance to win every game. But the Swans are a pretty tall order at the moment IMO.

The Swans will make that hard.

[member=64]PaulP[/member] it took a little while (2-3hrs) for I. Zucchini to sink in and then bob to the surface… ?
