The Sydney Swans/Casey Demons VFL game was televised over the weekend so I thought I'd give it a look to see the level of AFL/VFL alignment in regards to game modelling for the Swans.
It's safe to say that the alignment is very good with a huge preference to handball chain through the middle of the ground to great success, much like the senior team at the moment.
For the record both teams have lost just 1 game each this season.
This is great to see as it means when there are injuries to best 23 players, it's pretty much a plug and play for the VFL guy coming in and you can minimise the drop off in individual and team performance because if you lose a top 5 player from the best 23, you're usually replacing them with player 24 - 28 from the VFL.
2025 presented all sorts of injury issue for the Swans with the big one being Gulden where we were 6-8 without him and then 6-3 with him when he returned but so far this year we've been able to cover him and the AFL/VFL alignment foes a long way to accomplishing that.
Today we look at:
- Sydney Creating/Utilising Corridor Space x 2
- Sydney Rebound 50
- Sydney Defensive 50 Throw In
- Sydney Defensive 50 Ball Up
- Sydney Kick Out
- Sydney Wing Play
