    I dont like it when they do things like list people in my team like swan, pedersen, suckling on the bench. makes me worry about the green vest.

    at least we will all get to find out about potential capt choice swan before lock out.

    Hate it too, but remember when Suckling was always named on the extended bench out 2 months or so ago? He always ended up playing, hopefullt it's the same case this time.

    Swan is often named on the bench. I wouldn't fret, with the way the Magpies rotate he will be on the ground within 30 seconds. It could be to try and confuse opposition taggers, however IMO no Freo players could run with him. Also, doubtful Swan will get a vest, he has said he would rather not play, plus we get to find out before lockout. So, all good.

    82 the comment "we get to find out before lockout" is exactly the reason why we can keep calm about Swan.

    Remember players named on the bench are no closer to the green vest then some players on the field
