Preview

Team news: Bailey Smith will come in for his AFL debut and there a big wraps on the seventh overall pick. The Dogs will be reeling from the loss of Dale Morris (ACL), as Fletcher Roberts and Zaine Cordy look to feel the void down back. Aaron Naughton could also switch back to defence. Jason Johannisen (ankle) and Lin Jong (hamstring) will miss another fortnight.

For the Swans, Lance Franklin is pleading to be chosen despite a limited pre-season, while Daniel Menzel is unlikely with a groin problem. Ryan Clarke and Jackson Thurlow are in line for their club debuts. Isaac Heeney looks to have overcome an ankle injury in the JLT.

Prediction: Despite being dubbed a bottom four team, Luke Beveridge’s young pups will give the Swans a fair shake at Marvel. Sydney might just have a bit too much star power, and 72% agree. Swans by 18.
