is there any chance that swan would be the 'sub' in tonights game?,(no injuries) obviously 'cap' choice.
I simply couldn't imagine Swan ever getting the green/red vest- at least not this early in the season, he needs to keep getting full games into his legs to keep his fitness base up.
Please o please could it happen? I have a bottle of scotch riding on overall points against a guy I work with, and he just traded out Joel Selwood for Dane Swan (I even tried to talk him out of that one) can just see it... Pies up by 60 at half time, Swan subbed for a rest. Hello Round 8 upgrade. Seriously though, I doubt it very much.
Nochance in hell he will start as a sub but theres always the chance he could be subed at 3 qtr time still racking up a decent score
It would make for an interesting dilema, however, if he was ever listed as the Sub before lockout. Obviously you wouldn't have him captain, but would you still leave him on the field? If he was to be the player subbed off (rather than nominated as the actual sub), given MM appears to use the sub later than most, either at the end of the 3rd or even into the 4th, the Pies would likely have the game won already and so long as Swan was instrumental in setting up the win, there'd be no reason why he wouldn't score well. I couldn't see him actually being the sub, but rather the player being subbed off in the 3rd/4th if the game was well and truly over and to give him a rest when it was his turn. I can't see MM ever brining him on in the 4th though.
